Before lightening please take note:

• If your hair has been previously bleached, lightened, spray lightened, or coloured using metallic salt-based products or henna, do not use this product.
• If you have bleached, tinted or permed your hair recently, this product may not be suitable for further lightening.
• Everyone should protect the hairline, ears and any other sensitive areas with Vaseline before lightening.
• Always carry out a skin sensitivity and hair strand test, even if you have used the product on previous occasions.

• Do not use the product on other body hair, eyebrows or eyelashes.
• Not recommended for use during pregnancy.
• Do not use on an irritated scalp or broken skin.
• If you have very thick or longer than shoulder-length hair, you may require more than one kit for full application.
• May not be suitable for very dark brown hair – always complete a strand test.
• Not recommended for black hair.
• This is a single application product.

As with all dyes and bleaching kits results can vary widely depending on hair colour/type, condition of hair etc. A strand test can help you gauge the end result. Remember if there is not enough bleach to cover the hair fully the results will more than likely be patchy and may not reach the required level of lightening. As most people who have bleached their hair will tell you, it's better to have too much than too little. 

Our staff all have extensive knowledge of our hair dyes and bleach kits. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any doubts or queries. Bleaching your hair is permanent and hair can be damaged if the instructions are not followed properly. We'd hate for you to have problems with your hair dyeing :-)
