You're in your hair salon, and you've just done a magnificent copper red on your client, who is very satisfied with it. After washing and drying her hair... Disaster! You realize that nasty drops of hair dye have beaded on her temples and along her neck, despite the protective cape. You're quite embarrassed; the color is successful, but your client might not appreciate these unsightly dye stains and hold it against you.

And yes, even if sometimes we take all the necessary precautions, we can't always avoid small accidents. As they say, it's the risks of the job!

These stubborn little stains can remain on the skin for several days, and it's difficult to camouflage them properly.

To avoid this type of inconvenience, fortunately, there are miracle products for hair professionals!

Pre-coloring mission: protect the skin

Before proceeding with hair coloring, it is advisable to apply a protective lotion. Most of the time, these are products in the form of creams or oils that create a greasy protective film on the skin.

Little extra: most of these lotions are skin-friendly and protect your client from some undesirable effects of hair coloring, such as skin irritation.

Your professional experience allows you to easily identify the areas to protect. These are mainly around the face and the nape of the neck.

Anti-stain protectors are easily removed during the post-coloring shampoo. This is particularly the case with Subtil's Skin Protect cream. But if there are still residues, dampen a towel with warm water, then gently rub.

Post-coloring mission: remove stains if you forgot to protect

Highly effective, stain removers are the ultimate solution if you haven't thought about color protectors. Stain removers work just as well on the skin, clothes, or other materials like your hairdressing equipment. They are different from other types of stain removers and are specially designed for hairdressing. Thanks to them, it's a guarantee of a doubly successful coloring!

The stain remover products sold by Gouiran beauté are available in various formats to meet everyone's needs: in lotion form like Beautélive's stain remover lotion, or in wipes, like Manic Panic's Dye Away remover wipes.

Nevertheless, even though these are very effective products, it is important to choose the one that will best suit your client's skin from which you will need to remove color stains.

Has the color stained your salon surfaces?

For surfaces like the vanity or the floor, we advise you to immediately grab a damp sponge and stain remover once the coloring is finished. No need to scrub hard, as this could damage the surface. As for fabrics like towels and hairdressing capes, put them directly in the washing machine.
