My plant hair colour does not cover as usual, what can I do?Updated 6 months ago

When it comes to covering grey hair, the details are often important:

  • Make sure your hair is always freshly washed and damp when applying the color. If your hair dries quickly during application, keep a spray bottle handy.
  • Your hair should be free from silicones and microplastics, as well as natural deposits such as limescale. It is best to shampoo twice with our Deep Cleanse Shampoo before coloring, as any residue can cause the pigments to "slip off".
  • Make sure that your hair is wrapped particularly tightly during the application time. If the khadi cap does not fit well, use cling film and press it firmly against the contour. Put on a well-fitting woollen hat for the application time.
  • The color should be creamy - if it thickens, add more water. Apply the color very thickly so that your hair is covered underneath.
  • A real pro tip would be to use filtered or distilled water.
  • Check whether you might be using a shade that requires pre-pigmentation:
