Will the yellow pigment stain my skin, towels, or pillowcase? — TONING SEMI-PERMANENT EFFECT COLOR Bad Girl FULL MOON YELLOW 150ML

The pigment particles are designed to adhere to keratin, so they will also cling to skin, cotton, microfibre, and unsealed bathroom surfaces. During application, wear the supplied gloves (or nitrile gloves) and apply a barrier cream or petroleum jelly along the hairline, ears, and neck to catch drips. If pigment gets on skin, wipe immediately with an oil-based cleanser or micellar water — the longer it sits, the more it stains. Rinse the hair in a stainless-steel or porcelain sink rather than a white acrylic tub; if you must use a light-coloured basin, rinse it straight away with a bathroom cleaner. For the first 2–3 washes, use dark towels and an old pillowcase, as colour transfer is highest while the cuticle is still settling. Once the excess pigment has washed out (usually after 2–3 shampoos), transfer risk drops dramatically, but sweaty workouts or rain can still cause minor rub-off on light fabrics.
