FAQ Colour Refresh

The effect of Colour Refresh gradually washes out and typically lasts between 4–10 washes. How long the color lasts depends on which Colour Refresh shade you have used, as well as your hair color and hair quality.

Always remember to inform your hairdresser if you've used Colour Refresh, as bleaching should not be done if pigment remains in the hair.

We recommend letting Colour Refresh work for about 3–10 minutes. The longer you leave the treatment in, the more intense the color effect will be. Depending on your hair quality, texture, and desired results, the leave-in time can vary.

Always test Colour Refresh on a strand first to avoid discoloration or possible allergic reactions.

Yes, it's perfectly fine to use Colour Refresh on colored and treated hair. However, make sure to choose a shade that works with your hair color. Note that the effect lasts for different numbers of washes depending on the Colour Refresh shade, your natural hair color, and hair quality.

It’s important to always test Colour Refresh on a strand first to avoid discoloration or potential allergic reactions.

The semi-permanent pigments in Colour Refresh are not as strong as permanent hair dye, and therefore Colour Refresh does not cover gray hair. Colour Refresh is a nourishing hair mask with semi-permanent pigments that attach to the outer layer of the hair, meaning the color doesn’t penetrate like a permanent dye. We do not recommend using Colour Refresh on gray hair, as the results may vary.

The semi-permanent pigments in Colour Refresh are not as strong as permanent hair dye, and therefore do not adhere as well to untreated hair. Colour Refresh is a nourishing hair mask containing semi-permanent pigments that attach to the outer cortex of the hair – this means the color doesn’t penetrate like permanent dye. Generally, we don’t recommend using Colour Refresh on untreated hair as the results may vary.

Colour Refresh is only a semi-permanent color treatment that can correct the tone of your hair or make it slightly darker. There is no Colour Refresh that will lighten your hair. It’s important to always test Colour Refresh on a strand first to avoid discoloration or potential allergic reactions.

If you have light hair (level 7–10), we don’t recommend using our darker tones of Colour Refresh, as there is a risk of discoloration. Colour Refresh is a semi-permanent color treatment that can only adjust the color tone. It’s important to always test Colour Refresh on a strand first to avoid discoloration or potential allergic reactions.

If the color didn’t turn out as you expected, you can use products that are not color-preserving and contain sulfates to speed up the process of washing out the color. We recommend trying Purifying Cleanse Shampoo for this. Note that this is not a color remover, and pigments may still remain in the hair.

Discoloration can be due to several factors, such as your hair quality, hair history, or from the use of a Colour Refresh shade not suited for your hair. Even water with chlorine can affect the hair color.

It’s important to always test Colour Refresh on a strand first to avoid discoloration or possible allergic reactions. Always inform your hairdresser if you have used Colour Refresh, as bleaching should not be done if pigment remains in the hair.

Our products are gentle, 100% vegan, and free from sulfates and parabens. If you feel unsure, we always recommend consulting a doctor before using any products.

    Funket så fint på brunt hår med blonde striper!!!

    Jeg farget håret mitt brunt i februar, men ettersom jeg i mange år har bleket det, så har håret over sommeren sluppet mye av brunfargen. Så nå hadde jeg masse blonde striper, som jeg ville bli kvitt. Prøvde derfor denne idag, og den ga virkelig håret mitt en så fin farge! Jeg hadde en del mørk ettervekst, derfor farget jeg kun overgangen fra etterveksten og nedover. Men helheten på fargen ble så fin, og jeg føler meg fresh igjen! En så enkel behandling som virkelig anbefales. Jeg testet å farge en liten stripe av håret før jeg farget hele, for å forsikre meg om at fargen passet til håret mitt!!

    I love this colour and like to mix it with the cool cream which suits my 'salt & pepper' look these days. And the most wonderful part of your products that they are vegan and cruelty free and safe to use on my sensitive skin. Actually they are the only colour I can use without have a reaction. So thank all for making such amazing products.

    Till dig som är blond!! Läs!!!

    Skulle inte rekommendera till dom med blont hår som vill få en mörkare ton som det står att man kan använda den för. Blir grönt efter någon tvätt och kostade massor för att fixa hos frisören:/

    Hej Nelly, Vi är verkligen ledsna att höra att produkten inte levde upp till förväntningar. Det är viktigt för oss att våra produkter ger önskade resultat. I vissa fall kan det hända att hårfärgningsprodukter reagerar olika beroende på individuella hårtillstånd och tidigare behandlingar. Det är möjligt att vissa toner kan ge oönskade resultat på blont hår på grund av dess naturliga ljushet. Vi rekommenderar att du kontaktar vår kundtjänst för ytterligare hjälp och rådgivning. Vi strävar efter att lösa eventuella problem och hjälpa dig att hitta en passande lösning. Med vänliga hälsningar Maria Nila

    Works great to tone and cover blonde highlights

    I bought this on Amazon with the intent to tone out some of the orange/brassy tones from highlights that were really not the right color for me. I followed the instructions on the package and left on for about 5 minutes. With one application the product toned down my highlights and my hair looks shiny and healthy. I have been using Aveda Blue Malva shampoo to try and tone out the highlights and while it helped somewhat, I wanted something that would deposit color and this product delivered. I’ve used overtone in the past but this is better product. I’ll continue to use this as I grow out my color. It doesn’t cover grey as the package and description says, but I knew that going in and that wasn’t the purpose of using this product. I love the way it smells and that it doesn’t contain harsh chemicals. Thanks for making a great product!
