It contains in one package all the necessary "ingredients". What else are additionally benötig a dark towel or a disposable shower cap, and of course, a shower or a sink. ;)
First, it is advisable to put on the gloves. This may feel a bit like bread bags, and are quite large, but unfortunately also very short. - Personally, I'll take another disposable gloves, as I have with the "originals" no real feeling in his fingers.
In the empty bottle is now pressed "Color Cream" (Tube). Since it is very thick, a little the force already requires every last drop out of there to convey. For this, the serum is now given from the "diamonds". Shake!
Now the mass is evenly distributed in dry hair. Because the plastic bottle has a beautiful slender neck and a small opening can thus dispense well. Especially approaches and apex. The manufacturer indicates that you shall color strand by strand. But to be honest: For that I am far too impatient. ^^
TIP: similar lubricates your forehead, the ears, the face before applying with a fatty ointment , eg Ringelblumensalbe or Vaseline. Why? So that you, the color which has blazed a path on your skin, effortlessly abbekommt again. ;)
If the mass Once issued in the hair, it must act. In this case about 20 minutes. I "clap" my hair that are so wet by the color, the extent of my head as possible and hang me a dark towel around. During this time you should move carefully, since the color is much more stained. Caution for textiles! Since you no longer get them out!
After Einwirksamzeit states thoroughly with lukewarm water, then rinse. Until only clear water flowing from your head. - Believe me, this can take !!! I recommend here really just to rinse the hair and not, as might be used, directly to shower. The down current color would namely feel totally "slimy" in your body remaining.
Now comes even a sealant into the hair that comes with the product. This bag, especially with wet hands, aufzubekommen is not so easy. Even the application for it: Simply massage into hair, leave briefly and rinse. Done.
~ ~ Result
The best you can see the result in dry hair - and in daylight.
In my case, my previously brown hair has turned darker. However, from the color pattern on the packaging they are far away. They act more like a little purple. (Since I got my purple still!) Sunlight hair shine then something reddish, while so directly rather to ... indefinable? dirty black? squishy plum? ... Look. The time now is not so bad that I will directly cut my hair or just run around with a hat, but I'm definitely disappointed. This color does not fulfill my expectations, unfortunately ...
~ ~ Compatibility
Leg mixing the components are already rising to vapors, which are not visible though, but my eyes and my respiratory irritation a little. Who should use this product in any case open the window!
After applying everything was okay. First off. After about 10 minutes it started on my head but a little to itch.
~ ~ Selbstversuch
The advertising actually (almost) always lies know particularly critical consumer. But to what extent the manufacturers can probably keep his promise here? I wanted to know more and have colored my hair in two parts:
A broad streak I have dealt only with the paint, was in no diamond serum.
Serum I then added and the remaining hair dyed. The exposure time, the washing etc. was the same in both. The result - surprise! - Also!
To be sure, I asked other people. The result was disappointing: no one saw anywhere near a difference! - Well, I had not expected it anyway.

The application is simple, that result, however, was rather moderate. The color is not really much like the example on the package.
For sensitive scalp that's nothing!
However, here shines a: The manufacturer's balance !!!
