How To Use

• • Have a clock ready for timing
• • Put on Gloves
• • Comb hair gently
• • Put towel around shoulders to protect clothing

• • Tear off and discard the tab from the Color Activating Crème (Bottle #2). Then unscrew the cap.

• • Open the Color-Enhancing Colorant (Bottle #1) and squeeze entire contents into Bottle #2.

• • Replace cap. Place gloved finger tip on cap, point away from face, and shake well until the color has fully mixed.

• • After mixing, apply color immediately to dry hair.
• • Apply mixture first to your roots and where you have the most gray.
• • When roots are completely covered, apply remaining color quickly to the rest of your hair by parting and lifting
  hair as you apply.
• • Work mixture through until hair is completely saturated. Do not rub into scalp.

• • Now, start your timer for just 10 minutes (or the time indicated by your strand test). For resistant gray hair, you may
  need to leave color on for an additional 5 minutes, for no longer than a total of 15 minutes.

• • Rinse until water runs clear.
• • Gently massage a quarter-sized amount of the Color Treat™ Conditioner (3) through your hair.
• • Leave on for 2 minutes, then rinse.
• • Save remaining Color Treat Conditioner to use once a week for fresh, radiant color and healthier-looking hair.*

• • Shampoo hair as usual.
• • Put on gloves.
• • Apply the entire sachet of ColorFresh™ Revitalizer and distribute uniformly through the hair.
• • Leave on for 5 minutes—if you want a more intense color result, leave on for up to 10 minutes.
• • Rinse thoroughly and style as usual.

Additional Instructions

• • Take the allergy test.
• • Do the strand test to determine your optimal coloring time.
• • Read this entire instruction leaflet before you begin.

• • This product contains ingredients, including hydrogen peroxide, which may cause severe eye irritation and possible permanent eye injury.
  If any product gets into your eye, flush immediately with a large amount of lukewarm water and seek medical advice.
• • We recommend removing contact lenses before applying hair color. If you must wear contact lenses during application, and if any product
  gets into your eye, remove the lens first, then flush immediately with a large amount of lukewarm water and seek medical advice.
• • Never use hair color on eyebrows or eyelashes or if your scalp is irritated or injured.
• • Do not inhale or ingest product.
• • Do not use if your hair has been colored with henna or metal dyes.
• • Prepare and use the product in a well-ventilated area. If you experience inhalation difficulties, move to fresh air.
• • Remove all metal objects from hair before and during coloring.
• • Wear gloves and rinse hair well after application.
• • Keep product in a cool place away from heat and light. Do not mix this colorant with any other product.
• • Do not keep any unused mixed product. Do not leave the mixture in a closed bottle (bottle may expand or burst).

1. To open, unscrew the entire Color Activating Crème cap (Bottle #2). Don't pull off the tab. Then unscrew the Color Enhancing Colorant cap (Bottle #1).
2. Mix small equal parts of the Color Enhancing Colorant and Color Activating Crème in a plastic bowl.
3. Tightly recap both bottles.
4. Apply mixture to a test area the size of a quarter in the bend of your elbow. Allow to dry. Use remaining mixture for the strand test. Do not wash this area for 48 hours. During washing, protect with an adhesive bandage and remove it immediately after washing.
5. Examine the test area during the next 48 hours. If no reaction occurs, you are ready to color.

• • Any stinging, burning or rash, rinse immediately and discontinue use as this may be an indication of a more serious reaction. DO NOT COLOR
  your hair again before consulting a doctor or seeking medical advice.
• • Any rapidly spreading skin rash, dizziness or faintness, shortness of breath or swelling to eyes/face, rinse immediately and SEEK IMMEDIATE
  MEDICAL ATTENTION.

• • Problems such as itching, rash, swelling to eyes/face, blistering or skin/scalp weeping, SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

1. Cut a ¼ inch wide strand from the darkest or grayest part of your dry hair close to the scalp and tape at the cut end. Dampen with water.
2. Completely cover the hair strand with the mixture remaining from the Allergy Test. Start timing.
3. After 10 minutes (8 minutes for permed or relaxed hair), check the strand. If the strand is not the color you want, return it to the mixture and check the color every few minutes for up to 20 minutes.

• • If hair has build-up, shampoo one day prior to coloring. Do not shampoo immediately before coloring. Your scalp has natural oils that help protect it during coloring.
• • To prevent staining, apply a little moisturizer around your hairline.
• • For best results, do not shampoo your hair for 24 hours after coloring.
• • If you plan to perm your hair, perm first, and then you can use Natural Instincts the very same day as long as your scalp is not irritated and is in good condition.
• • If you plan to chemically relax your hair, relax your hair first, and then wait at least 7 days and one shampoo before coloring.

Clairol Natural Instincts Semi-Permanent Hair Color Kit (Pack of 3), 6G 12 Toasted Almond Light Golden Brown Color, Ammonia Free

The Natural Instincts system is the healthier hair color indulgence—a non-permanent, ammonia-free formula with aloe, vitamin and antioxidants. Hair, just like skin, is susceptible to environmental factors that attack the proteins in your hair, which can weaken the hair structure and ultimately lead to breakage. In most cases, this process is amplified when you color your hair. Our Natural Instincts system nourishes and protects your hair with clinically proven healthier color. The antioxidant properties prevent the formation of highly reactive, damaging molecules by helping to inactivate the metal ions that cause their formation. This leads to predictable color results and hair that’s actually healthier-looking than before you colored.
