Check a Sebastian Professional hair-product batch code
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Inspect bottle and jar bases, tube crimps, pump labels, aerosol can bottoms or seams, sachet seals, and cartons for a compact lot. Hold level, product-line name, salon size, barcode, and Wella stock reference do not date one manufacturing run.
- Powder-to-foam treatment, shampoo, conditioner, mask, oil, cream, heat spray, and hairspray use different formulas and filling lines. A salon trio or backbar size should be recorded independently from retail units.
Common lookup mistakes
- Record the exact Sebastian line, product type, hold or treatment designation, size, market, and container code.
- Keep aerosols away from heat, close oils and creams promptly, and follow allergy-test instructions on any color-related professional service.
