Kota Cosmetics Color Cream METAL

1. Overview

• Finish & Target: High-coverage, dimensional ash-metallic hair color finish engineered to transform natural or pre-lightened hair into a cool, muted metallic gray-silver hue; formulated to neutralize brassy orange and yellow undertones.

• Texture & Format: Cream-to-emulsion dye system housed in an easy-mix tube package, designed for uniform brush or bowl application without dripping.

• Wear & Performance: Long-lasting permanent hair color performance that deeply penetrates the hair cortex, providing fade-resistant tone, high luster, and complete gray coverage.

• Key Benefits: Organic botanical-infused formula designed to minimize chemical damage during the dyeing process. Contains mild fragrance agents to reduce ammonia harshness.

2. Key Ingredients & Components

• Ginseng Extract & Keratin Amino Acids: Conditioning actives that reinforce hair fiber integrity, seal moisture into the cuticle, and preserve tensile strength during chemical processing.

• Sesame Oil & Natural Oils: Nutrient-dense plant lipids that nourish the hair shaft, impart brilliant metallic shine, and protect against post-color dryness.

• Ammonia & Hydrogen Peroxide (Developer System): Alkalizing and oxidizing agents that open the hair cuticle to lift natural melanin and deposit cool-toned metallic pigments deep inside the shaft.

• Cool Gray/Ash Oxidative Dyes: Micronized pigment precursors specifically calibrated to produce icy, metallic ash tones upon oxidation.

3. How to Use

1. Prep & Patch Test: Perform a skin allergy test 48 hours before use. Ensure hair is dry, unwashed, and detangled. (Pre-lightening/bleaching to level 8–10 recommended for maximum ash-metal vibrance).

2. Mix: Combine equal parts of the Color Cream and Developer in a non-metallic bowl until a smooth, uniform cream is formed.

3. Apply: Section hair and apply the mixture thoroughly from mid-lengths to ends, then apply to roots. Ensure complete saturation.

4. Process & Rinse: Leave on for 20–30 minutes depending on desired intensity. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until water runs clear, then follow with a sulfate-free conditioner.
