We recessionistas are always looking for more ways to do our beauty upkeep at home, right? From manicures to pedicures, and especially hair coloring — as this can be quite a pricey proposition if you add up all the touch-ups and maintenance visits to the salon.
Enter a new form of hair color from
John Frieda,
Precision Color Foam. This product claims to be a groundbreaking, non-drip foam formula that spreads easily into your roots and those hard-to-reach places for exact, all-over 100% grey coverage. This results in salon-precise professional coverage for flawless, natural looking color results in the comfort of your own home.
Can this really be true? Does the fact that this formula is a non-drip foam formula actually give you salon results?
We reached out to hair color expert,
Helen of
www.klassicsinternational.com to give her perspective on this. She says that during application, consumers may make “overlapping mistakes” and that “not knowing how much is too much can cause damage to the health of the hair.” To prevent this, she recommends that you “get help with the application process from a friend – having the help of someone during the parting process and corresponding application process will maximize the outcome of the at-home color process.”
We do like the fact that this product has a conditioning step that helps to condition the hair. The product contains Orbignya Oleifera Oil and Oryza Sativa Bran Oil (aka Rice Bran oil). They are both natural oils that are rich in fatty acids that can help nourish and hydrate the hair. And it contains Quaternium-91, an ingredient that helps to soften, condition and add shine.
For last minute hair color tips, we asked expert
Toni Love of
ToniLove.com to help us. She says “be sure to read the manufacturer’s directions BEFORE applying hair color. And always use gloves and a base cream to protect the skin.”
