    Hair Color

    This color is absolutely the best hair dye I have ever tried. I have dyed my hair for many years. The color turned out to be an incredibly nice chocolate brown with amazing shine. I did 50/50 on the product (half of each) on damp hair. All the gray and the color turned out super. It’s enough for another dyeing. I have medium-length hair, thick and a bit curly.

October Stockholm 5.77 Light Chocolate Brown

True Colour is a professional hair colour developed and used by hairdressers that gives a natural, even, and glossy result. The formula is enriched with Macadamia Oil, Ceramide A2 and Cranberry for extra care and shine.

The numbers on True Colour indicates both the colour level and tone. The first number shows how dark or light the shade is, while the second indicates whether the tone is warm, cool or neutral.

5.77 is recommended for those who:

- Are lightness level 5. If your hair is darker, you need to bleach it first; if you are very light blonde, you need to pre-pigment your hair with colour 7.44 to avoid green tones.
- Want a rich chocolate brown colour.

True Colour is always used together with an Activator, which activates the pigments and determines how deeply the colour adheres to the hair. Measure the amount of colour cream and mix with Activator until smooth. Use 5 vol for toning, 10 vol for colouring (can be mixed from equal parts 5 vol and 20 vol), and 20 vol for lightening or gray coverage.

Apply to towel-dried hair and leave for 15–30 minutes, depending on the desired result.

Examples:

- Toning: 40 g colour cream + 60 g Activator 5 vol
- Colouring: 40 g colour cream + 30 g Activator 5 vol + 30 g Activator 20 vol
- Lightening: 50 g colour cream + 75 g Activator 20 vol
- Gray coverage: 50 g colour cream + 50 g Activator 20 vol

Each tube contains 100 ml of colour cream and 150 ml of Activator, enough product for long and thick hair. An opened tube can be stored in a dark place, at room temperature for at least five years.

Use:
True Colour is mixed differently depending on whether you’re using it for toning, colouring, lightening or for covering grey hair.
