• 1. Choosing the right hair colour

    Compare traditional hair color with hair color using natural melanin precursors. Traditional hair color contains PPD, which can cause allergic reactions, while the natural melanin precursors are less likely to cause allergic reactions.

  • 2. Application process

    Traditional hair color requires multiple creams and often a developer like hydrogen peroxide, whereas the natural alternative is a simpler, no-mixing-required option.

  • 3. Odour consideration

    Traditional hair color tends to have a strong chemical odor, while the natural alternative is odorless.

  • 4. Effects on hair and scalp

    Traditional hair color can be harmful with frequent use, especially for root touch-ups, while the natural alternative is gentler and non-irritating.

  • 5. Development time

    Traditional hair color can take up to an hour to develop, whereas the natural alternative takes less than 20 minutes.

  • 6. Colour removal

    Traditional hair color is difficult to remove, especially when trying to lighten hair, while the natural alternative fades more easily and can be removed with bleach.

FAQ

Should I use the Grey Hiding Treatment on dry hair or wet hair?

For best results, it is recommended to use the Grey Hiding Treatment on dry hair.

 Why are there dark spots in the Grey Hiding Treatment?

The pigment within the Grey Hiding Treatment changes from light brown to black when it comes into contact with oxygen in the air. The top portion of the container may not be completely sealed, so it might have reacted with air already. The cream is still effective and safe to use as long as it is not completely black.

What to do if the Grey Hiding Treatment looks very dark on my hair, but I don’t want to dye my hair this dark.

No worries! The cream itself turns very dark, but only a small amount of dye is transferred to the hair. The Grey Hiding Treatment is designed to allow customers to control the degree of darkness through multiple applications.

Why don’t I see any change in my hair colour after using the Grey Hiding Treatment?

Please ensure that you are following the directions. It may take up to 3 applications for significant darkening, especially for individuals with thick or completely white hair. For faster results, you can use the included Inochroma Grey Hiding Booster Serum to pre-treat the hair.

What is the Booster Serum and how do I use it?

The Booster Serum contains ingredients that help the pigment bind to hair follicles, reducing the number of applications needed to achieve a very dark effect. To use the Grey Hiding Treatment with booster serum, apply the serum evenly on dry hair, allow it to dry completely, then use the Grey Hiding Treatment as normal.

Can I use the Grey Hiding Treatment in the shower?

The Grey Hiding Treatment should be used prior to taking a shower when the hair is dry.

Will the Grey Hiding Treatment dye my skin and clothes?

Yes, the product can dye skin and clothing. It is recommended to use gloves and wear old clothes during the process to avoid any stains. You may apply a thin layer of Vaseline near the hairline and behind the ears to prevent skin tinting.

How long does the colour last?

Inochroma is semi-permanent and will last for 2-4 weeks on natural grey hair.

Can I use the Grey Hiding Treatment on already coloured hair?

Yes, the Grey Hiding Treatment can be applied over pre-coloured hair. However, results may vary based on the shade of your previous colour and the dye you're applying. We recommend performing a strand test to ensure the desired outcome.

Can I use the Grey Hiding Treatment if I was allergic to other hair dyes?

The Inochroma Grey Hiding Treatment is specifically designed for people sensitive to other hair dyes. Our product is free from p-Phenylenediamine (PPD) and similar chemicals. However, we recommend performing a patch test 48 hours before application, especially if you have sensitive skin. This will help you check for any potential reactions.
