How To Use Bigen Permanent Powder Hair Color

Before Application

Read the instructions provided in the box thoroughly before use. Before each time you color your hair, we highly recommend completing the 48 hour skin allergy test.

Make sure to wear suitable gloves. You can find a set included in the product box. Tip: If the gloves are too loose, use rubber bands to tighten them around your wrists.
We recommend removing contact lenses before coloring your hair.
Cover your shoulders with a towel or cape that you do not mind getting stained.
Be sure your hair is clean and free of any product buildup. For this we recommend washing and drying your hair 24 hours before coloring.
To prevent staining on your skin, apply cold cream around your ears, hairline, and the nape of your neck.
Keep a damp paper towel close by. This is to help wipe skin if hair color gets on it!

Is it okay to color my hair black using Bigen Powder right after using semi-permanent hair color?

Yes, of course. However, if you have previously colored your hair with henna or a color-restorer, you need to wait until your hair has grown out, until these colors fade completely out of your hair, or until your color-treated hair has been cut. Otherwise, the desired results may not be obtained.

How does Bigen Powder compare with semi-permanent colors?

Both products are deposit-only hair colors. However, Bigen’s Permanent Powder Hair Color lasts much longer than the other due to differences in coloring mechanism.

Bigen Permanent Powder is an oxidative dye that deposits color your hair to last at least 20 shampoos. It contains a low level of peroxide to become activated when mixed with water, to ensure that the colorants penetrate the hair without lifting (lightening) away your natural pigments to remain gentle to the hair. Since it will cover both outside of the cuticle as well as bit into the cortex, the product lasts as long as most permanent hair dye products, but with much less damage to the hair.

Semi-Permanent Hair Colors, including Bigen’s, is even less invasive. They usually don’t contain any peroxide, and simply coat the hair. The benefit of this type of product is that it doesn't add more damage to the hair, and can be used over relaxed or bleached hair, even on the same day. The trade-off compared to the Bigen Permanent Powder, is that it will wash off with each shampoo. While specific counts may vary per shade and condition of hair, on average it will maintain colors for about 8 shampoos.

Do I have to do a skin allergy test before application every time I color my hair?

Yes. All permanent hair colors, including Bigen Powder, require a preliminary skin allergy test 48 hours before each use, even if you have been coloring for years without problem.

Your body constitution and condition change every day. Allergic reactions can occur depending on the constitution of the day of use.

If you notice any signs of burning, swelling, redness or irritation on your skin during these 48 hours, do not use the product.
