48 hours
in advance
before use
It’s super-important to perform a skin allergy test 48 hours before each use of this Hair Color (or any Hair Color for that matter). To find out how, refer to the safety warnings insert inside of your Hair Color carton. Be sure to read through all safety instructions before coloring, to make sure everything goes off without a hitch.
Whether you chose to paint it on or bottle it up, achieving the perfect shade is all in how you mix it. Because of the expertly engineered “not-too-thick, not-too-drippy” viscosity of our formula, either one works just as well, and is just as easy—you do you.
Whichever mixing method you chose, stick to this color-to-developer ratio:
1:1 (2 fl oz/60 ml color and 2 fl oz/60 ml developer)
Pour developer into applicator bottle
Add hair color
Shake well
Pour developer into bowl
Add hair color
Mix well with brush
Whether you’re just touching up or doing an all-over application, your tresses are in for a treat.

Total Time: 35-45 minutes
Color your new growth (roots) using either the bottle or brush to apply mixture onto vertical partings. Starting in the front, work your way down in rows about ¼” apart, then repeat in the back. (Unclip and re-clip each section as you go if necessary.) You should use about half the color mixture, avoiding previously colored hair.
Leave color on for 30 minutes. If covering stubborn grays or using a vibrant shade, leave on for an additional 10 minutes. Keep the good vibes going by doing something fun while you wait. (We suggest catching up on your favorite show. With snacks.)
If necessary, apply the remaining color mixture to hair lengths and ends, starting where the roots stop. Massage color down entire length of hair to the ends, section by section, using a wide-tooth comb, color brush or gloved fingers to distribute evenly. Leave on for another 5 minutes.
Rinse well with warm water until it runs clear, then wash with Better Natured® Color Care Shampoo and then condition with either Better Natured® Color Care Conditioner or Conditioning Balm. (FYI, our color leaves hair so silky-soft, you might feel like you’ve already conditioned!) Finally, use the cleansing wipe to remove any remaining color from skin.
Dry off and admire your new shade for as long as necessary. (We’ll wait.)
