How To Use
Step 1: Preparation
- Gather supplies: You will need the Directions hair colour jar, gloves, an applicator brush (or bowl), a wide-tooth comb, towel, and a plastic cap.
- Protect your clothing and skin: Wear an old t-shirt or cape and apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly or barrier cream around your hairline, ears, and neck to prevent staining.
- Perform a patch test: At least 48 hours before application, apply a small amount of colour to a patch of skin to check for any allergic reaction.
Step 2: Hair Prep
- Wash hair: Clean hair with a gentle shampoo to remove dirt, oil, and product buildup. Avoid conditioner if you want maximum colour adhesion.
- Dry or towel-dry: Hair should be damp or dry. Directions colours can be applied to both, but damp hair allows more even coverage.
Step 3: Application
- Put on gloves to protect your hands from staining.
- Shake the jar well to ensure pigment is evenly distributed.
- Section hair: Divide hair into 4–6 sections using clips for easy and even application.
- Apply colour: Using an applicator brush or your gloved hands, start at the roots and work down to the tips. Make sure every strand is fully saturated for uniform colour.
- Comb through: Use a wide-tooth comb to evenly distribute the colour and eliminate any clumps.
Step 4: Processing
- Cover hair: Put on a plastic cap to prevent staining surfaces and help retain warmth, which can enhance colour vibrancy.
- Processing time: Leave the colour on for 15–30 minutes.
- For a subtle tint, 15 minutes is sufficient.
- For a more intense, vivid green, leave up to 30 minutes.
- For pre-lightened or blonde hair, the colour may appear more vibrant.
- Optional: For extra intensity, gently apply heat with a hairdryer (low-medium setting) over the cap.
Step 5: Rinsing
- Rinse with cool water: Do not use hot water as it can fade the colour faster.
- Rinse until water runs clear: Gently massage hair while rinsing. Do not use shampoo immediately unless necessary.
- Condition: Apply a light conditioner or Directions’ aftercare conditioner to seal in colour and maintain softness.
Step 6: Drying & Styling
- Towel-dry gently: Avoid rubbing, which can cause uneven fading.
- Air-dry or blow-dry carefully: If using heat styling tools, use a heat protectant to prevent damage.
- Style as desired.
Step 7: Aftercare & Maintenance
- Wash hair 2–3 times per week with sulfate-free, colour-safe shampoo to maintain vibrancy.
- Use cool water for washing and rinsing.
- Apply deep conditioning masks weekly to keep hair soft and shiny.
- Limit excessive heat styling and sun exposure to prevent premature fading.
- For touch-ups, reapply every 4–6 weeks depending on fading.
