Blooming in magnetic fire nuances - yellow, orange and red, Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) is one of the first plants cultivated for production of paints. Evidence of its use have been found in the tomb of Tutankhamun (died 1323 BC), whose mummified body was wrapped in a cloth colored with safflower.
Though little forgotten since the creation of synthetic dyes, safflower is still used today as a colorant - mainly in the culinary, where it successfully replaces the most expensive spice in the world having a similar name.
Nowadays, thanks to its beneficial properties, the oil derived from the seeds of the plant enjoys much bigger popularity. It can be found in two varieties - one particularly rich in oleic fatty acid and another one abundant in linoleic acid. Vitamins A, E, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and K are just some of the other valuable components of the oil.
The safflower oil is almost completely odorless and colorless. Moreover, thanks to its light consistency, it absorbs very quickly, which makes it a perfect cosmetic ingredient.
Safflower oil is one of the key ingredients of the deep therapy conditioner, included in the KOLORA permanent hair color kit, which provides a comprehensive care and keeps the magnificent new color up to full 4 weeks.
If your natural hair colour is between light blonde and dark blonde, you can lighten your hair by up to 2 shades using 7.0 Kolora Natural blonde, 7.65 Kolora Almond blonde, 8.0 Kolora Golden blonde, and 9.8 Kolora Ash blonde, or by up to 3 shades using 10.2 Kolora Pearl blonde.
No. KOLORA hair colour requires a more precise application. Follow these 3 steps:
1. Divide the hair into separate sections.
2. Apply the mixture on the roots and massage it in.

No, KOLORA does not weaken hair : the hair colour formula was developed to make the hair soft, smooth and shiny.
