Skin allergy test: to be performed 48 hours before each use of this product, even if you have already used this or another haircolor product. Skin allergy test: Important: this product can cause an allergic reaction, which, in rare cases can be severe. To help minimize the risk of an allergic reaction, you must follow these precautions: Do not use if: You have already had a reaction to a haircolor product. You have a sensitive, itchy or damaged scalp. If you have a tattoo, the risks of an allergic reaction may be increased. Perform a skin allergy test 48 hours before each use of this product, as allergies can develop suddenly, even if you have previously used a haircolor product from this brand or another. Skin allergy test instructions: Cleanse an area the size of a quarter in the bend of your elbow with soap and water. Pat dry. Using a plastic utensil, mix a dab of the protective color creme with a few drops of the protective creme developer (the ratio should be 1 part color creme to 1 1/2 parts developer) in a plastic or glass container. Tightly recap the haircolor product and developer. Do not use metal utensils. Apply mixture to the test area with a cotton swab or ball. Let test spot dry. Do not wash, cover or disturb for 48 hours. Examine test area periodically over the next 48 hours. If you experience any reactions - such as redness, burning, itching, swelling, skin abrasions, eruptions or irritation in or around the test area. Do not color your hair until you consult a doctor. To use this product, follow the easy application instructions. 1. Apply excellence pre-color protective treatment. Before coloring: protect fragile ends and help prepare hair to accept color evenly. To open tube, twist round tip so that it breaks off. Massage product into dry ends before coloring. Avoid the root area. Wait for 2 minutes. Do not rinse. 2. Mix color. Put on colorist gloves and twist off the tip of the protective creme developer (1) bottle cap before beginning. Remove cap from bottle. Pierce the opening of the protective color creme (2) tube completely with the point provided in the top of the cap. Do not point either end of the tube towards the face while opening or using. Squeeze entire contents of protective color creme (2) into the protective creme developer (1) bottle and recap the bottle. Place your finger over open tip, point away from your face and shake thoroughly until mixture is totally blended. Caution: do not squeeze or put pressure on protective color creme tube until you have pierced the tube opening completely. Use care in working with tube contents. Contact between contents and eyes may cause blindness. Note: never leave the tip unopened after mixing - the container may burst. Use immediately and do not save any unused mixture. 3. Apply color, time and rinse. Option a- do a root touch-up application if: You color every 4 to 6 weeks with the same shade. Important: To achieve the most even color results, from root to tip, and to avoid darkening of ends, follow instructions below. 1. Touch-up root area first. Make 1/4" partings throughout your dry, unwashed hair with regular applicator tip. Apply color onto new growth root area only until completely saturated. Optional: if you choose to use full coverage comb for easier application, remove applicator tip and attach comb onto the bottle. Leave color on new growth root area for 20 minutes. Tip: for resistant grays, leave mixture on hair an additional 10 minutes. 2. Apply to rest of the hair. Apply remaining product to the rest of the hair. Make sure all the hair is completely saturated. Pile hair loosely on top of your head. Let develop for an additional 10 minutes. Total development time is 30-40 minutes. 3. Rinse-out. When time is up, add a small amount of warm water to the hair and lather color mixture through the hair. Rinse until water runs clear. 4. Condition & recondition. Apply enough conditioner (3) to thoroughly saturate hair. Massage through hair. Leave on for 1-2 minutes, then rinse out with warm water. Use the conditioner once a week after shampooing to protect your hair until the next coloring. Option B- do a full head application if: You have never colored your hair. You want to change your current haircolor. You have not colored in three months or longer. 1. Apply all over. Attach regular applicator tip onto the protective creme developer (1) bottle. Optional: full coverage comb can be used for easier application. Make 1/4" partings, apply product onto dry, unwashed hair until hair is completely saturated and color mixture is evenly distributed. Pile hair loosely on top of your head. 2. Time. Leave on for 30 minutes. Tip: for resistant grays, leave mixture on hair an additional 10 minutes. 3. Rinse-out. When time is up, add a small amount of warm water to the hair and lather color mixture through the hair. Rinse until water runs clear. 4. Condition & recondition. Follow step #4 in the "option A" section above. Store between 50 degrees F and 80 degrees F.
