Abstract

Abstract An aqueous hair color composition for oxidatively coloring hair in twelve minutes or less, wherein said composition is prepared by combining a dye mixture and a developer mixture, said aqueous hair color composition comprising 0.01-2.0% (combined weight) of the total composition of primary intermediates and couplers, a free alkalinity concentration of 0.20-0.75 meq/gram, and a hydrogen peroxide concentration of 4-6% by weight of the total composition; and a hair coloring kit containing separate containers of an aqueous dye mixture and an aqueous developing mixture for use with said dye mixture.
