In terms of quality, efficiency and safety, Ollin Professional paints are in no way inferior to the means of popular foreign brands, but at the same time they are much more affordable than imported counterparts. The main secret to the success of dyes produced under this brand lies in the uniqueness of ingredient formulations, whose formulas are developed on the basis of high-grade raw materials from the USA and EU countries. The use of products in combination with natural products from the line of makeup products can be an alternative to salon procedures.

The Ollin Professional brand is the property of AstoreCosmetic, which appeared on the arena of the Russian beauty market in 1995. Ollin's brand was born in 2011, when AstoreCosmetic launched its own line of professional hair cosmetics. Ollin paints quickly won the recognition of hairdressers and ordinary consumers due to the optimal ratio of price and quality.

Paints are made on modern, high-tech equipment from imported high-quality raw materials using patented formulas.Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the manufacturer adheres to environmental principles, therefore all products manufactured under the Ollin Professional brand do not contain substances harmful to nature.

Ollin dyes are a demonstration of the unique technology of combining synthetic dyes with organic natural pigments. As a result of such a tandem, a harmonious, saturated, multifaceted and incredibly persistent color is born.

Among the relative disadvantages of Ollin paints, one can single out the fact that their places of sale are limited to online platforms and salons specializing in the sale of professional hair cosmetics. On the one hand, this is a plus, since the risk of acquiring fakes from official distributors has been reduced to practically zero, but on the other hand, there are those who, for some reason, such purchase options may not be convenient.

Ollin Professional dyes are products that are unique in composition. Of the main active components contained in them, the following deserve special attention.

• Wheat Proteins (Phytokeratins) - These substances act as a building material, restoring the structure and improving the quality of the hair. Under the influence of phytokeratins, the curls thicken, acquire a silky texture and a beautiful healthy shine.

As for ammonia, this ingredient, although it is part of Ollin products from the series for permanent staining, but it is present there in minimal concentration. It is important to understand that the addition of ammonium hydroxide allows you to achieve persistent hair color with the right tonality. And since it is contained in the dye to a minimum, dyeing is obtained for the structure of the hair to the maximum gentle. During the coloring process, the natural elements of the composition act comprehensively on the curls, while performing a protective, restoring and nourishing function.

Although Ollin paints are primarily intended for use in beauty salons, many have successfully applied them at home. Diagnosing hair before dyeing greatly increases the chances of getting the perfect color without the help of a professional colorist. Diagnostics involves determining the condition of the hair (after blonding, lightening, bleaching, curling), their natural shade in the root zone, the level of tone depth over the entire length and ends. If necessary, you also need to find out the percentage of gray hair to the total mass of hair. Hair is not washed before the procedure, and gloves are used to protect hands. The procedure for primary painting:

• take a non-metallic container and combine the dye and oxidizing agent in it in the right proportions, most often 1: 1.5;
• to get an intense color or a light blond on a natural base, the coloring mixture is applied in two stages. First, the coloring mixture covers the length, not reaching 1.5-2 cm to the root zone, and then the residues are distributed over the roots;
• for coloring in one tone or darker, the entire length is immediately treated with the mixture;
• the standard dye exposure time is half an hour, if the hair is gray, then you have to keep it for 45 minutes;
• emulsify the dye on the hair: moisturize them with water, foam the dye and distribute it throughout the head;
• washed hair under running water, then again with shampoo and finally treated with care with color stabilization function.

To change the color, the mixture is distributed over the roots, immediately go to length. It will also remain to emulsify the dye, wash it off and stabilize the color.

Mostly reviews about Ollin dyes are positive. Of their advantages, users most often note:
