CREATE THE MAGIC

Apply COLOUR ALCHEMY products to clean, dry hair. The ready-to-use colour gel can be applied by using a brush, sponge or with hands.

The unique holographic hair colour effects are produced by the combination of both heat and light including:

  • Natural warmth of the head or sunlight
  • The flash of a mobile phone or camera
  • Moving between light and shade
  • Moving between hot and cold areas
  • Restyling of the hair
  • Wind passing through the hair

The heat-reactive hair colour supported by thermochromic technology triggers a colour change within a temperature window between 28°C to 32°C. The crystal formula replicates the visual effect of a prism, with each shade scattering the light in a range of kaleidoscopic hues.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT: COLOUR ALCHEMY

Schwarzkopf Professional COLOUR ALCHEMY is a level 1 product and lasts until the next wash.

Dry hair. Cleanse and blow-dry the hair before application.

Think about make-up, face cream or face foundation – a single, fine layer of colour is sufficient for the desired colour effect. Using more product will not intensify the effect, but might in turn significantly compromise the hair feel. 

Yes, depending on the Schwarzkopf Professional COLOUR ALCHEMY shade, we recommend using it only on depths 1 to 6, as the effect you can observe is a mixture of the light reflected by the hair and the result of the colour reflected by the prism. Therefore the effect is more visible with darker hair colour.

Yes! On curly and kinky hair, please use the soft blender for the best colour results.

The COLOUR ALCHEMY shades can't be intermixed with any other Schwarzkopf Professional products.
