Dye instructions will vary according to the brand and color you’re using, so be sure to follow the instructions provided in your kit.

Use colour-safe shampoo and conditioner, wash in cool water, apply a weekly colour treatment mask, minimise heat styling, and protect hair from UV exposure. Your colourist will recommend specific products for your colour type.
