Balmain Professionnel Couleurs Couture Permanent Hair Color in shade 4.26 Violet-Red-Brown offers professional coloring with long-lasting results. This 60 ml formula delivers vibrant, wash-resistant color that maintains its intensity over multiple washes. The permanent color creates rich, dimensional tones with violet-red-brown undertones, suitable for sophisticated color variations. Formulated for professional use, it ensures even application and consistent coverage from roots to tips. The ammonia-based composition allows for reliable color development and long-lasting color retention. Each application provides about 30 minutes of processing time for optimal color penetration. The creamy consistency facilitates even distribution without dripping or running. Suitable for complete gray coverage while enhancing depth and shine for natural hair. The color result depends on the starting hair color and condition, with darker starting colors requiring pre-lightening for true violet-red-brown effect. Contains care substances to maintain hair structure during the coloring process. Not recommended for already bleached or severely damaged hair without professional advice. Store at room temperature between 15-25°C, protected from direct sunlight. Follow manufacturer instructions for mixing ratios and processing times. Wear protective gloves during application to avoid skin staining. Conduct a strand test 48 hours before full application to check color compatibility and possible reactions. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water after processing time. For best results, use with the separately available recommended developer. The professional formulation ensures color stability and predictable results with proper application.
