Reviews
Unfortunately, paint from C: ENKO among many professional paints is not included in the list of best-selling. Despite the German origin of the brand, which is preferred by many, S: ENKO has not yet gained great popularity among residents of post-Soviet countries. Many women do not even notice the red boxes labeled C: ENKO. Product reviews are the most controversial brand.
On the positive side, customers say that the paint is applied and smeared easily and evenly. It does not have a pronounced chemical smell, although some consumers complain that the strong smell of ammonia is felt everywhere before and after dyeing. They complain that the paint mixes very poorly with the oxidizer. When flushing the dye foams very strongly. The balm that comes with the paint softens the hair well, makes it obedient, as a result, it combs well.
The instructions, as the girls point out, are quite large, but complaints are received that there is no useful information.Some consumers of the fair sex after applying the paint began to burn the scalp. And the resulting color did not correspond to the declared on the packaging. Also, after the dyeing procedure, many began to lose hair strongly, and those that remained strongly exfoliated.
But, despite the many negative reviews, professionals stood up in defense of paint. According to them, С: ЕНКО is a professional paint, therefore only specially trained people can work with it. The instructions for many newcomers are not informative, and the results do not justify hopes, because inexperienced users do not take into account the initial state and hair color, mix components incorrectly, over-paint or hold too little. Also, complaints about the fact that the paint is very quickly washed off are not entirely appropriate, since any salon paint is designed so that after a month and a half you need to return to the salon again, update the color. And, finally, hair tends to "accumulate" tinting substance.
