PHYTOCOLOR 5.7 CHÂTAIN CLAIR M

PHYTOCOLOR 5.7 Light Chestnut Brown is a permanent hair colour for people seeking an intense, natural-looking and long-lasting light chestnut-brown shade with rich brown highlights and reliable grey hair coverage.

Shade 5.7 is officially described as Light Chestnut Brown. Compared with neutral shade 5 Light Brown, it provides a more pronounced brown and chestnut character. Compared with shade 6.77 Light Brown Cappuccino, the result is deeper and darker.

The formula is enriched with botanical pigments derived from five selected tinctorial plants. A combination of at least seven pigments per shade helps create intense, natural-looking and multidimensional colour with radiant highlights.

Jojoba and Monoï oils help support shine, softness and a better-cared-for appearance after colouring. Jujube bark extract and Epaline™, or oxidised corn oil, help support scalp comfort during application.

The current formula contains 81% ingredients of natural origin and is ammonia-free and silicone-free. The final result depends on the natural hair colour, previous chemical treatments, hair porosity and percentage of grey hair.
