Color Expert batch code questions
Which Color Expert component code should I check?
Start with the outer carton, then compare clearly printed lots on the colorant and developer without combining them.
Can a batch result replace the allergy alert test?
No. Always follow the package instructions and perform the required allergy alert test.
Checking a Color Expert hair-dye kit
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Hair-color kits contain multiple components plus a shade number, barcode, and product references. A shade number identifies the color, while each component may carry its own production print.
- Printed expiration, unopened seals, matching kit components, and the required allergy alert test take priority over a decoded production estimate. Do not use leaking, swollen, or mismatched components.
Common lookup mistakes
- Check the carton flap and the colorant and developer containers for clearly printed lot information.
- Do not enter the shade number or combine codes from different boxes or kits.
- Follow all package safety directions and perform the required allergy alert test every time.
