Preliminary Strand Test:
A strand test is always recommended prior to application, especially if the hair is porous or previously chemically treated with lighteners, permanent waves, chemical hair relaxers, or hair color. Apply a small amount of desired color to a few select strands. Process for 20-40 minutes depending on the level of color intensity desired, rinse and evaluate for accurate results.
Patch Test:
Prior to application, a preliminary patch test should be conducted. The following patch test must be made 48 hours prior to each application.
1. With soap and water, wash an area the size of a circle 1" diameter (2.54 cm) in the bend of the elbow or behind either ear, touching the hairline. Pat area dry with absorbent cotton.
2. Apply a small amount og color directly from tube to test area, using an absorbent cotton-tipped applicator.
3. Let test spot dry. Do not wash, cover, or disturb.
4. Leave on for 48 hours. Examine at 24 and 48 hours. If no reaction has occurred, you are ready to color. Do not use hair color if any of these danger signs appear: burning, itching, swelling, eruption, or irritation. If these signs appear in or around the test area, it indicates that the patron is hypersensitive and color must not be applied.
