The key actives in Novara shampoo

Black, dark brown, brown and light brown shades

Reishi extract (Ganoderma atrum) is the signature active of the formula. Rich in antioxidants, it revitalizes the hair.

Fo-ti supports the fiber and carries the color application after application.

Ginseng extract wakes up the vitality of the scalp and supports the fiber right from the root.

Honey extract and oat protein soften the lengths and keep them supple.

Witch hazel and the licorice derivative soothe the scalp while the color develops.

Blonde, red and purple shades

Fo-ti and ginseng are combined with vitamin C, squalane, ginger extract as well as macadamia and jojoba oils.

A formula designed for tolerance

Novara shampoo contains no ammonia, no peroxide and no silicone (except the blonde, red and purple shades). It has been dermatologically tested and its composition suits anyone looking for a color that is more respectful of the scalp. If you follow a specific hair treatment or have a history of allergies, professional advice remains recommended.

Precautions for use

Novara shampoo contains oxidation hair dyes, including p-phenylenediamine. For these dyes, the European cosmetics regulation requires the warnings below.

  • Contains phenylenediamines.
  • Blond, red and violet shades. Contains resorcinol. Rinse hair thoroughly after application.
  • Hair colorants can cause severe allergic reactions.
  • Read and follow the instructions.
  • This product is not intended for use on persons under the age of 16.
  • Temporary black henna tattoos may increase your risk of allergy.

Do not color your hair if:

  • you have a rash on your face or a sensitive, irritated or damaged scalp;
  • you have ever experienced any reaction after coloring your hair;
  • you have experienced a reaction to a temporary black henna tattoo in the past.

As a precaution, carry out a tolerance test 48 hours before each application. Apply a small amount of product behind the ear or in the crook of the elbow, let it dry, then watch the area for 48 hours. If redness, itching or swelling appears, do not use the product. A test without any reaction does not guarantee that you are not allergic.

Do not use the product on eyelashes or eyebrows. Avoid contact with the eyes. If the product gets into your eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water.

What should you do if you have a reaction?

If itching, redness or swelling appears during application or in the days that follow, rinse your hair immediately with clean water and stop using the product. If your face swells or if you have difficulty breathing or feel unwell, call your local emergency number (112 in Europe). Keep the packaging. It helps the doctor identify the ingredients involved.
