Uneven results with color-depositing shampoo? 3 tips to solve patchy and ineffective coloring!

2024-07-31|Lena

There are many reasons why color-depositing shampoo might not apply evenly, such as using too little product, leaving it on for too short a time, or having uneven color blocks or too dark a base color. The correct way to use color-depositing shampoo is to leave it on for 3-5 minutes. Many color-depositing shampoos on the market are thick, which can cause uneven application if not used properly. The thinner texture of MCG Color-Depositing Shampoo allows for easy and even application at home.

Reasons for uneven application of color-depositing shampoo

Why does color-depositing shampoo sometimes leave uneven color?

1.Using too little product

To save on the use of color-depositing shampoo, you may dilute it with water. Adding too much water can result in insufficient pigment, leaving you feeling like no color was deposited.

2.Uneven application

The top of the head is the easiest to color. Starting from the top each time can lead to 80% of the pigment accumulating there.

3.Insufficient wait time

Color-depositing shampoo needs time to work. Different brands have different wait times, so follow instructions. Rushing to rinse can prevent pigment from adhering.

4.Uneven hair color

Pre-existing color patches can affect the outcome. Mild cases can be fixed with proper use of the shampoo, but severe cases need professional help.

5.Too dark a base color

Color-depositing shampoo shows up best on lighter hair. It's designed to adhere to damaged areas, so the more damaged the hair, the better the color uptake. Pure dyed hair without bleaching usually has a darker base, limiting the shampoo's effectiveness.

6.Previous color not fully removed

Before switching to a new color-depositing shampoo, use a deep-cleaning shampoo to remove the old color. Otherwise, the new color can mix with the old, resulting in a muddy appearance.

Color-depositing shampoo can be used to enhance the vibrancy of the color, even if it doesn't change the base color.

Even for purely dyed hair, color-depositing shampoo can be used to enhance the vibrancy of the color, even if it doesn't change the base color.

Tips for using color-depositing shampoo and achieving even application

Color-depositing shampoo, while effective, has weaker cleaning power due to its acidic nature. On days when your scalp is particularly oily, start with a deep-cleansing shampoo to thoroughly clean your hair. Afterward, use the color-depositing shampoo as a second wash to ensure even color application. This method ensures that your hair is clean and ready to absorb the color evenly.

Tip1: Wet hair 

Ensure your hair is thoroughly wet. Squeeze out excess water before applying the color-depositing shampoo to prevent the color from washing away immediately.

Tip2: Section your hair

If you have thick or long hair, use clips to divide it into upper and lower sections. This ensures even application of the shampoo.

Tip3: Use sufficient amount

For long hair (chest length), use at least 100cc of MCG Color-Depositing Shampoo. Leave it on for 3-5 minutes to allow the color to absorb before lathering and rinsing.

 

If these tips don't yield even results, try applying the shampoo to dry hair for better color absorption. For bleached or special color-treated hair, start using color-depositing shampoo from the first wash after bleaching to maintain vibrant color.
