Schwarzkopf Professional · Igora Zero Amm

Schwarzkopf Professional Igora Zero Amm Ammonia-Free Dye 60 ml is the permanent dye for those who cannot tolerate the smell of ammonia but still want real coverage. The brand calls it 100% ammonia-free, with coverage of up to 100% of white hairs on natural shades, and classifies it as vegan, silicone-free and without added fragrance.

What it does for you

• Covers up to 100% of white hairs on Naturals and Fashion & Cover shades.
• Ammonia-free, so the smell is almost non-existent, which matters a lot in a home bathroom.
• Lifts up to 3 levels with shades from the 10- series.
• Seals the cuticle, so the shade lasts longer through washes.
• Vegan formula, silicone-free and without added fragrance.

How to use it at home

1. Mix 1:1 with Igora Royal Oil Developer 3%, 6% or 9%. For the 10- series, the ratio is 1:2, with 9% oxidant.
2. Apply to dry, unwashed hair, wearing gloves, section by section.
3. Leave for 30–45 minutes. The 45 minutes are for complete white hair coverage and maximum intensity.
4. Do not use a cap, dryer or any other heat source.
5. Rinse until the water runs clear and wash with a shampoo for colored hair.

Active ingredients

• Phytolipid Technology, a blend of micronized oils with optimized pigments, helps the pigment enter evenly, from root to tip.
• Grape seed oil and apricot kernel oil, the two oils in the technology, with Omega 9 fatty acids.
• Monoethanolamine replaces ammonia: it gives the same pH, but is almost odorless.

For what type of hair

For any type of hair, especially chosen for those who react to the smell of ammonia or have a sensitive scalp. If you want to lift more than three levels or are looking for a very specific shade, the Igora Royal palette is wider and goes further.

ProBeauty tip. If your shade is beige, golden, chocolate or red and you have a lot of white hairs, mix two parts of the chosen shade with one part of the corresponding Natural shade. It is the brand's recipe for complete coverage and the only way to avoid translucent white hairs.

Schwarzkopf Professional trainer tip. For white hairs, adjust the formula according to how much white hair you have, how difficult it is to cover and what tone you want. For fashion shades, if you add the corresponding Natural shade, the color comes out fuller and covers more evenly; follow the recommended proportion for the shade family you are using.
