The Present Time

You want vibrant, delicate colour - but you don’t want to make a long term commitment. And you don’t want to risk damaging your hair in the process either. Luckily, there’s a solution: meet The Present Time.


The latest addition to our colour portfolio, The Present Time is an ammonia-free demi-permanent hair colour line that lasts for up to 24 washes and fades true to tone - meaning you can update your look as often as you like.

Low commitment colour that cares

One of the consequences of using a demi-permanent alkaline colour is the potential loss of lipids from the hair fibre, which can weaken the hair. This damage can make hair look dull and more prone to breakage.
That’s why we’ve created The Present Time using revolutionaryBiomimetic Hair Restoring Technology, which is designed to repair, restore and protect your hair, not only leaving it healthier looking, but supporting vibrant colour and shine.
