Stage 3. After thoroughly rinsing off the mask, a hair shielding agent is applied to damp hair (you can use a heat cap).

Stage 4. Then the product is washed off with warm water and a balm (fixative) is applied. And you can already style your hair.

Color screening products do not contain ammonia, so such coloring is completely safe and harmless.
