How should I prepare my hair and scalp before applying this cream color?

Before using Fitocolor Cream Hair Color 4.36 Moka, perform a patch test 48 hours earlier by applying a small amount of the developer to a discreet area of skin, such as behind the ear, and wait 24 hours to watch for a reaction. Wash your hair 24 hours before coloring, but avoid shampooing the day of application; a mild conditioner can be used to keep the hair supple. Do not use any styling products or leave‑in treatments on the day of coloring, as they can interfere with the dye’s ability to penetrate the shaft. When you apply the dye, keep it away from the scalp to prevent irritation; use a brush or gloves to apply only to the desired lengths or roots. Follow the package instructions for mixing ratios and processing time exactly, and rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. After rinsing, use a color‑safe shampoo and conditioner to maintain the new shade and protect the hair fiber. If your scalp is sensitive, your hair has been recently lightened, or you have any chronic condition, pregnancy, breastfeeding or are on medication, consult a specialist before use.
