Although Ollin paints are primarily intended for use in beauty salon conditions, many successfully use them at home. Diagnosing hair before coloring repeatedly increases the chances of getting the perfect color without the help of a professional colorist. Diagnosis involves determining the condition of the hair (after blonding, lightening, bleaching, curling), their natural shade in the root zone, the level of depth of the tone over the entire length and tips. If necessary, you must also find out the percentage of gray hair to the total mass of hair. Hair before the procedure is not washed, and gloves are used to protect hands. The procedure for the primary painting:

• they take a non-metallic container and combine the dye and oxidizer in it in the right proportions, most often 1: 1.5;
• In order to obtain an intense color or light blond on a natural base, the coloring mixture is applied in two steps. First, the coloring mixture covers the length, not reaching 1.5-2 cm to the root zone, and then the remnants are distributed over the roots;
• for coloring one tone or darker the mixture is immediately treated with the entire length;
• the standard dwell time of the dye is half an hour, if the hair is gray, then hold it for 45 minutes;
• emulsify the dye on the hair: moisten them with water, churn the dye and distribute it over the entire head;
• washed hair under running water, then again with shampoo and finally treated with a color stabilization treatment.

To change the color of the mixture is distributed over the roots, immediately go to the length. It will also remain to emulsify the dye, wash it off and stabilize the color.
