PHYTOCOLOR 5.3 GOLD LIGHT BROWN

Plant-Based Pigments: Phyto is a pioneer in using a very high concentration of botanical pigments (up to 74% depending on the shade) extracted from five dye plants: Buckthorn, Madder, Coreopsis, Broom, and Campeche Wood. This ensures a natural, intense, and multi-dimensional color with luminous golden reflections.

Ammonia-Free: A significant benefit, as the absence of ammonia means no harsh chemical smell and less potential for scalp irritation or hair damage compared to traditional dyes. PhytoCOLOR uses alternative gentle agents for effective coloring.

PPD-Free and Resorcinol-Free (often reformulated): Phyto has actively worked to replace common allergens like PPD (para-phenylenediamine) and resorcinol with better-tolerated derivatives, significantly reducing the risk of allergic reactions. (Always perform a patch test.)

100% Grey Hair Coverage: Designed to provide complete coverage of white or grey hair from the very first application, resulting in a uniform and long-lasting color.

Respects Hair and Scalp: Formulated like a treatment, it prioritizes the health of the hair fiber and the comfort of the scalp. It includes soothing and nourishing active ingredients.

Soothing Active Ingredients:

Jujube Bark Extract: A natural ingredient with anti-itching properties, helping to calm feelings of discomfort on the scalp during and after coloring.

Epaline™ (Oxidized Corn Oil): A botanical oil with anti-irritation properties, creating a protective film on the scalp.

Precious Oils for Shine and Nourishment:

Jojoba Oil & Monoï Oil (Gardenia Tahitensis Flower Extract in Coconut Oil): These natural oils deeply nourish the hair fiber, enhance color vibrancy, and act as shine boosters, leaving hair looking radiant, protected, and soft.

Dermatologically Tested: Minimizes the risk of allergies and irritation, making it suitable for sensitive scalps. However, always perform an allergy patch test 48 hours before each use, even if you’ve used hair dyes before.

Long-Lasting Color: The formula ensures color durability and resistance to fading with washing.

Easy-to-Apply Cream/Gel Texture: The smooth, non-drip consistency allows for precise and even distribution from roots to ends.

Shade 5.3 GOLD LIGHT BROWN:

Base Color (5 – Light Brown): This is a medium-light brown shade, lighter than a classic medium brown but darker than a dark blonde.

Reflect (.3 – Golden): The “0.3” indicates a golden or warm reflection. This means the color will have warm, sunny undertones, appearing rich and luminous rather than ash or cool. It will likely catch the light with golden highlights.

What’s Included in the Kit (Typical):

A standard PHYTOCOLOR kit usually contains:

1 tube of Coloring Cream (e.g., 50ml)

1 bottle of Milk Developer (e.g., 50ml)

1 sachet/tube of PHYTOCOLOR Color Protecting Mask (a post-color treatment, e.g., 12ml)

1 detailed Instruction Leaflet

1 pair of Protective Gloves

How to Use (General Steps – always refer to the specific instructions in your kit):

Perform Allergy Test: Crucial! Do a patch test on a small area of skin (e.g., behind the ear or inner elbow) 48 hours before each application, even if you’ve used hair dyes before.

Prepare Mixture: Wear gloves. Pour the entire content of the coloring cream into the applicator bottle containing the milk developer. Close and shake vigorously until a uniform mixture is achieved.

Application (on dry, unwashed hair):

First-time coloring or significant regrowth (>3 months): Apply the mixture to the roots, then immediately spread the rest through the lengths and ends. Leave on for 30 minutes (or 40 minutes if you have more than 50% grey hair or stubborn grey).

Root touch-up (already colored hair, similar shade): Apply the mixture only to the roots for 20 minutes (30 minutes for more than 50% grey hair). Then, distribute the remainder through the lengths and ends for an additional 10 minutes.

Rinse: After the processing time, gently emulsify the product with a little warm water, then rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear. Do NOT shampoo immediately after the color.

Apply Mask: Apply the PHYTOCOLOR Color Protecting Mask from roots to ends. Leave on for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

PhytoCOLOR 5.3 GOLD LIGHT BROWN is an excellent choice for those seeking a radiant, warm light brown shade with golden highlights, prioritizing hair and scalp health due to its gentle, plant-based, and free-from formulation.
