EVESEL Gold Hair Color: Protecting Hair Health Before, During, and After Colouring
Permanent hair dye changes hair at a structural level, so protecting the health of your hair before, during, and after the process is just as important as choosing the right shade. This guide covers how to prepare your hair for EVESEL Gold Hair Color, what to expect during application with the included oxidiser bottle, and how to keep your hair strong and the colour vibrant in the weeks that follow.
Preparing Your Hair Before Using EVESEL Gold
Healthy hair takes colour more evenly and holds it longer. In the two weeks before applying EVESEL Gold, incorporate a weekly deep-conditioning or protein treatment into your routine to strengthen the cuticle. On the day before colouring, skip any deep oil treatments or conditioning masks - these coat the shaft and can block colour penetration. Arrive at the application with clean, dry, product-free hair for the most consistent result.
If you have recently had a chemical service (relaxer, perm, or bleach), wait at least two weeks before applying permanent colour. Overlapping chemical treatments significantly increases the risk of breakage, especially on fine hair.
What the Included Oxidiser Does to Your Hair
The oxidiser (developer) included with each EVESEL Gold kit is a hydrogen peroxide solution. When mixed with the colour cream, it lifts the cuticle and drives the colour into the cortex. This process is inherently drying - hydrogen peroxide dissolves some of the hair's natural melanin and temporarily disrupts the cuticle structure. This is why post-colour conditioning is essential: the included conditioner begins the process of re-closing and smoothing the cuticle after rinsing out the colour mixture.
Using a higher-volume developer than recommended does not give better colour results - it simply causes more damage with no colour benefit for standard shades. Use the included bottle as directed; only the 12G Highlighter shade requires the bundled high-strength developer for its high-lift chemistry.
Tips for Colouring with a Sensitive Scalp
If your scalp is prone to tingling or irritation from permanent dye, use these strategies:
- Apply the colour starting 5 mm from the scalp root rather than directly on the skin. The colour migrates to the root during development without prolonged scalp contact.
- Reduce processing time to 25 minutes for root application (extend only if grey coverage is incomplete).
- Do not scratch the scalp for 24 hours before applying dye - micro-abrasions increase chemical absorption.
- Use a scalp-protective serum or thin layer of oil along the part lines before application.
Persistent scalp burning during application (not mild warmth) is a sign to rinse immediately.
During Application: Getting Even Coverage
Divide dry hair into four quadrants and work systematically from the back sections to the front. Apply the mixed colour using the applicator brush in thin, 1 cm subsections - thinner sections means the colour cream reaches every strand rather than sitting on top of thicker chunks. Once all roots are saturated, use any remaining colour to comb through the mid-lengths and ends. A processing cap keeps the heat in and prevents the colour mixture from drying on the outer layer while the inside sections are still developing.
Rinsing Out: Why Temperature Matters
Rinse with warm water until it runs completely clear. Hot water rinses feel satisfying but force the cuticle open further and accelerate colour fade from the first wash. After the colour is fully rinsed, apply the post-colour conditioner from mid-lengths to ends, leave for two to three minutes, and rinse with cool or cold water. The cold rinse closes the cuticle and seals the colour inside, improving both vibrancy and shine in the days that follow. Do not shampoo for at least 24 hours after colouring.
Building Your Post-Colour Hair Care Routine
Coloured hair loses protein and moisture faster than untreated hair. Build these steps into your weekly routine:
- Colour-safe shampoo: Use sulphate-free formulas. Sulphates strip colour pigment with every wash.
- Deep condition weekly: A moisturising mask (not protein-based every week - alternate) restores elasticity and reduces breakage at colour-treated ends.
- Limit heat styling: Blow-drying and straightening on coloured hair accelerates both breakage and fade. Use heat protectant and keep tools below 180°C.
- UV protection: UV rays oxidise colour pigment. A leave-in with UV filters or wearing a hat in strong sun preserves colour tone between retouches.
How Often to Retouch EVESEL Gold Colour
Root regrowth becomes visible after three to five weeks depending on how fast your hair grows and how large the depth contrast is between the colour and your natural shade. For dark-to-blonde transitions, even 5 mm of new growth is noticeable; for matching or near-matching shades, you can stretch to six weeks or more. Retouching too frequently (every two to three weeks) causes cumulative damage to the already-coloured lengths - retouch only the new growth and leave the existing colour alone unless it has faded significantly.
Storing an Unopened EVESEL Gold Kit
Store unopened EVESEL Gold kits at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Do not store in a bathroom cabinet that experiences large daily temperature swings from shower steam. The colour cream and oxidiser are shelf-stable for 24 to 30 months from manufacture date. The lot number and expiry date are printed on the box. Never mix and store combined colour and developer - once mixed, the reaction begins and the mixture must be used within 30 minutes or discarded.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does EVESEL Gold Hair Color cause significant damage to hair?
All permanent oxidative hair dye causes some degree of cuticle disruption and protein loss - this is inherent to the chemistry. However, the damage is manageable with proper aftercare. Use a sulphate-free shampoo, deep condition weekly, and limit heat styling. The 20 vol developer in most EVESEL Gold shades causes less damage than the higher-volume developers needed for bleach-based lightening services. Avoid retouching already-coloured lengths more than necessary.
How do I avoid over-processing my hair with EVESEL Gold?
Apply colour only to new root growth when retouching - not to the entire length every time. For a root retouch, apply from roots to 1-2 cm past the regrowth line, then comb the remaining colour through the ends only in the last five minutes of development. This gives the ends a tone refresh without the full development cycle. Follow recommended processing times (30-45 minutes) and do not exceed 60 minutes under any circumstances.
What shampoo should I use after applying EVESEL Gold Hair Color?
Use a sulphate-free, colour-safe shampoo. Sulphates (sodium lauryl sulphate, sodium laureth sulphate) are aggressive surfactants that open the cuticle and remove colour pigment with every wash. Colour-safe formulas use milder cleansing agents that clean the scalp without stripping the dye. For blonde or toned results, a purple or blue colour-depositing shampoo used once a week helps maintain the cool tone and counteracts any developing brassiness.
What is included in each EVESEL Gold Hair Color kit?
Each EVESEL Gold kit includes a 120 ml colour cream tube, a large-capacity oxidiser (developer) bottle matched to that shade, an applicator brush, and a post-colour conditioner sachet. The developer volume varies by shade - 20 vol for most standard shades, higher-volume for the 12G Highlighter. Mixing instructions and a shade description are printed on the box.
Can I use EVESEL Gold Hair Color during pregnancy?
Most dermatologists and obstetricians advise waiting until after the first trimester before using permanent hair dye, as this is when the fetus is most vulnerable and some dye components are absorbed through the scalp in small amounts. The overall risk from a single application is considered low, but if you are concerned, consult your healthcare provider before using any permanent dye during pregnancy. Ventilate the room during application as a precaution.
Is EVESEL Gold Hair Dye suitable for all hair types?
EVESEL Gold works on straight, wavy, and curly hair types. Curly and coily hair textures tend to be more porous, which can cause colour to develop faster and appear more intense than on straight hair - reduce development time by five to ten minutes and monitor progress. Fine hair lightens more quickly than coarse hair; coarse or resistant hair (common in grey coverage scenarios) may need the full 50-minute development time. On very fragile or previously over-processed hair, do a strand test first and consider a conditioning colour service instead.
How many bottles of oxidiser come with each EVESEL Gold kit?
Each kit includes one oxidiser bottle. The bottle is a large-capacity size - sufficient to mix with the full 120 ml colour tube and cover shoulder-length to long hair in a single application. If you have very long, thick, or layered hair that typically requires more than one standard kit, order two full kits and use both colour tubes and both developer bottles for a complete application.
How do I maintain hair health between EVESEL colour retouches?
A consistent weekly deep-conditioning treatment is the single biggest factor in keeping coloured hair healthy between applications. Alternate between a moisturising mask (to restore elasticity) and a protein treatment (to rebuild strength) every two weeks. Use cool-to-warm water for washing, apply heat protectant before any styling tool use, and protect against UV with a leave-in spray or hair sunscreen. Trim split ends every six to eight weeks to prevent breakage from travelling up the shaft.
How do I perform a patch test for EVESEL Hair Color?
Squeeze a small amount of colour cream (roughly the size of a pea) into a non-metallic bowl. Add an equal amount of the included developer and stir. Apply the mixture to clean, dry skin behind one ear and to the inner elbow crease. Leave uncovered for 24 to 48 hours and watch for any redness, swelling, itching, or burning. If any reaction appears, do not proceed with full application and consult a doctor. Wash the test area thoroughly once the time has elapsed.
How can I get more lift with EVESEL Gold shades?
For maximum lift within the Gold range, use the 12G Highlighter shade, which is specifically formulated for high-lift and includes the matched higher-volume developer. For standard shades (8G, 9N), you can increase the developer ratio to 1:1.5 (one part colour to 1.5 parts developer) and extend development to 50 minutes. Beyond this, further lightening requires a dedicated bleach process before applying colour. The Gold range is designed to lift natural hair by one to three levels without bleaching; results beyond that require a separate lightening step.
How do I know the EVESEL products on skinsli are authentic?
Skinsli sources all EVESEL hair colour kits directly from authorised Korean wholesale importers. Products arrive in factory-sealed packaging with Korean and English labelling, lot codes, and expiry dates intact. Skinsli does not repack or relabel any products. If a product arrives with damaged, missing, or suspicious packaging, contact skinsli customer support immediately.
Why should I wait 24-48 hours before washing after using EVESEL Hair Color?
After rinsing out the colour, the oxidation reaction continues inside the hair shaft for up to 24 hours. The colour molecules are still forming and bonding to the cortex during this period. Washing too early interrupts this process, leading to faster fade, particularly at the mid-lengths and ends. Waiting 24 to 48 hours before shampooing allows the colour to fully stabilise, which translates to better vibrancy and longer-lasting results between retouches.
