Why choose KIS KeraCream hair dye?

• Professional permanent hair dye with a long-lasting color result.
• Reliable gray coverage with the right color shade, oxidant, and processing time.
• Deep, even color with a well-groomed shine.
• With keratin ingredients as part of the Keratin Infusion System.

Quick answer: when do you choose KIS KeraCream?

Choose KIS KeraCream when you want a permanent hair color with good coverage, long-lasting color, and control over the final result. The hair dye is particularly suitable for coloring gray hair, touching up roots, and changing or correcting an existing hair color.

Do you only want to temporarily refresh a color tone, without permanent coloring? Then a demi-permanent or direct hair dye might suit your needs better.

KIS KeraCream and grey coverage: what should you look out for?

For good gray coverage, the chosen shade, the oxidant, and the processing time are decisive. Especially with a high percentage of gray hair, it is important that the color contains a sufficient natural pigment base.

The natural colors from the N-series are therefore an important choice for gray coverage. With fashion colors, it may be necessary to add a natural color, depending on the desired shade and the percentage of gray hair.

For full grey coverage , 3% KIS OxyCream (10 vol.) is recommended within the KIS colour system. A stronger oxidant does not automatically provide better grey coverage. The correct choice depends on the base colour and the desired result.

Hairdresser tip: for stubborn grey hair, sufficient processing time is at least as important as the choice of oxidant. Therefore, use the technical colour instructions from KIS and assess the hair structure and percentage of grey beforehand.

What makes KIS KeraCream hair dye different?

Whereas color development is central to permanent hair coloring, KIS KeraCream combines this effect with the Keratin Infusion System . The formula contains keratin ingredients that contribute to the nourishing properties of the product.

This makes KIS KeraCream interesting for those who want to combine an intense color result with attention to the condition and appearance of the hair. However, it remains a chemical color treatment: even with hair dye containing keratin, careful application is necessary.

Using KIS KeraCream: choosing the mixing ratio and oxidant

KIS KeraCream is mixed with a suitable KIS OxyCream oxidant . The right oxidant determines how much the hair is lightened and what degree of coverage can be achieved.

For regular KIS KeraCream colors, a mixing ratio of 1:1 applies: one part hair dye and one part oxidant. For example, mix 50 ml KIS KeraCream with 50 ml KIS OxyCream. Use a non-metallic mixing bowl and follow the instructions for the chosen color shade.

Which oxidant do you use with KIS KeraCream?

• 3% (10 vol.): for darker colors, color-on-color, and opaque gray coverage. Mixing ratio 1:1.
• 6% (20 vol.): for a maximum of one color level lightening and more transparent gray coverage. Mixing ratio 1:1.
• 9% (30 vol.): for lightening approximately two to three color levels with regular colors. Mixing ratio 1:1.
• 12% (40 vol.): for specific lightening color series. Use exclusively according to the accompanying technical instructions.

Important: do not automatically use a higher oxidant for a more intense color or better gray coverage. The right choice depends on natural hair color, the percentage of gray hair, the desired shade, and the condition of the hair.

Mixing ratio and processing time for regular KIS KeraCream colors

• 3% KIS OxyCream: mixing ratio 1:1, application time 30–40 minutes.
• 6% KIS OxyCream: mixing ratio 1:1, application time 30–40 minutes.
• 9% KIS OxyCream: mixing ratio 1:1, application time 30–40 minutes.

These guidelines apply to regular permanent colorings. For special lightening color series, the mixing ratio and processing time may vary.

Special KIS KeraCream Super Lighteners

The Super Lighteners are intended for stronger lightening of natural hair. Different mixing ratios apply to these than to the regular colors.

• 9% (30 vol.): mixing ratio 1:1.5, approximately three to four color levels lightening and a processing time of approximately 40 minutes.
• 12% (40 vol.): mixing ratio 1:1.5, approximately four to five color levels lightening and a processing time of 40–50 minutes.

Special KIS KeraCream Ultra Lighteners

For certain Ultra Lighteners, a mixing ratio of 1:2 and a processing time of approximately 50–60 minutes apply. These special colors are intended for maximum lightening and require precise application according to the technical manual.

Please note: the lightening results above are indicative. The actual result depends on the base color and hair condition. For Super Lighteners and Ultra Lighteners, always check the instructions for the specific shade. Lightening hair dye does not automatically lighten previously artificially colored hair.

Common mistakes when coloring with KIS KeraCream

• Using an overly strong oxidant: this can cause unnecessary lightening and affect the desired color result.
• Failure to take underlying pigments into account can result in unwanted warm or cool color reflections.
• Shorten the processing time: this can lead to insufficient color development or gray coverage.
• Use the same color formula on all hair lengths: porous ends may absorb color differently than healthy roots.
• Choosing the wrong shade: especially with a lot of gray hair, a shade without a sufficient natural pigment base can provide less coverage.

Extra caution is required for damaged or highly porous hair. The correct procedure depends on the condition of the hair and any previous chemical treatments.

The result you can expect from KIS KeraCream

When used correctly, KIS KeraCream provides a deep, even hair color with a long-lasting, nourished shine. Because it is a permanent hair dye, the treated color grows out with the hair. However, the color intensity may diminish over time due to washing, sunlight, and the condition of the hair.

How well gray hair is covered depends on the chosen color, the mixing ratio, and the processing. With the right natural color and oxidant, a high degree of gray coverage is possible.

Explanation of KIS KeraCream color numbers

Choosing the right color shade starts with the color intensity and color reflection. The number indicates how light or dark the base color is. Letters or additional color codes refer to the color direction.

• 1: black.
• 5: light brown.
• 7: medium blonde.
• 10: very light blonde.
• N: natural color direction.
• G: gold reflection.
• K: copper reflection.

The range includes more color directions and combinations than these examples. Therefore, always check the complete color code and use a KIS color chart if in doubt. The color representation on a screen may differ from the final result.

Who is KIS KeraCream suitable for?

KIS KeraCream is intended for professional hairdressers and experienced users who are familiar with permanent hair coloring, oxidants, and color levels. The hair dye can be used for full colorings, root treatments, and color corrections.

Do you have little experience with hair dye, or do you want to make a major color change? Then seek advice from a professional hairdresser. Lightening previously dyed hair and correcting unwanted color tones, in particular, requires expertise.
