It’s best to wait 4-6 weeks between applications of Suntouched Hair Lightener. Using it too frequently can cause damage. Give your hair time to recover in between sessions.
For most applications, a 20 or 30 volume cream developer is recommended. Higher volumes may cause damage, while lower volumes produce less lift.
Yes, but only if your hair is in healthy condition. Suntouched is gentle, but bleached hair is more porous and prone to damage. Extend your wait time between bleach and lightener applications.
Suntouched can be used on any natural hair color. Very dark hair simply requires longer processing times and potentially multiple sessions to achieve pale blonde tones.
