MYCHROMA Hair

  • Description

    MAKING INNOVATION MORE ACCESSIBLE.

    Driven by our commitment to innovative world-first colour experiences and community feedback, we're thrilled to announce we've improved our pricing for MYCHROMA Hair to £33. This price adjustment reflects our shift towards a more community-centric approach, by innovating our packaging solutions and moving away from the professional hair-salon setting we have created cost savings we are pleased to pass on to you.

    Experience colour in motion with MYCHROMA™. A temporary hair colour that creates a unique, prismatic effect as it shifts colours in response to changes in temperature and sunlight.

    Inspired by structural colour found on beetle shells and peacock feathers, MYCHROMA's patented formula uses microprism technology that imitates the prismatic effect that until now, had only been seen in nature.

    02. Comb through and dry with a hair dryer or leave to dry naturally. 

    TOP TIP: Gently comb the product through when it's still wet to ensure even application through the hair and avoid overbrushing as the product dries as this will remove the product. 


    Applying MYCHROMA Hair on textured hair:

    01. Prep the hair.

    02. Simply apply using a sponge, fingers, brush, or spray on the product

    03. Depending on your texture and desired look, comb through and blow dry.


    Activating MYCHROMA Hair prismatic effect:

    01. Once the product has dried, watch the colours fluctuates depending on the temperature of your environment. 

    NOTE: Colour change activates between 28-33 ºC (82-91 ºF). The speed of the colour change depends on the change in temperature or change in the strength of UV light. It can happen quickly and dramatically. If you go from inside to outside on a sunny day or use hot air from a blow dryer, the colour transforms with ease.

  • Tips and Tricks

    Avoid Heat Styling
    MYCHROMA reacts to heat but overheating and pressure combined can kill the effect! Skip the straighteners, curlers, and tongs or use before application to keep the colour tech safe and vibrant.

    Hands Off the Halo
    Excess touching or brushing can reduce the visual impact. Style gently and avoid over-manipulating the hair.

    No Oils, Please
    Avoid applying oils or heavy products in direct contact with the formula - they can interfere with colour reflection and reduce the effect.

    Colour Transfer? It’s Possible!
    Think of makeup for your hair - depending on your application style - some pigment may transfer to clothing or pillowcases. The good news, it's temporary - so any transfer can be removed with some warm water and a gentle soap.

    Best in Bright Light
    Watch it transform in direct sunlight, heat or under camera flash, that’s when MyChroma really shines!

    When in doubt
    Give it a test play first! We always recommend trying a small section to get used to the feel of the product - before you go wild!
