The assortment line includes the entire range of products for styling, permanent curling, lamination, coloring, hair and scalp care. Ollin has many solutions for those who want to transform and change their hair color, while maintaining their beauty and health.

In terms of quality, efficiency and safety, Ollin Professional paints are in no way inferior to the products of popular foreign brands, but at the same time they are much more affordable than imported counterparts. The main secret of the success of the dyes produced under this brand lies in the uniqueness of the ingredient compositions, 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 skin care cosmetics can become 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. The year of birth of the Ollin brand was 2011, when AstoreCosmetic launched its own line of professional hair cosmetics. Ollin paints quickly won the recognition of hairdressing stylists and ordinary consumers due to their optimal price-quality ratio.

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 natural organic pigments. As a result of this tandem, a harmonious, rich, multifaceted and incredibly durable color is born.

Ollin Professional hair dyes are created not only according to advanced technologies, but also with the active participation of experienced stylists and hairdressers, which allows you to achieve maximum efficiency and impeccable quality of coloring. Let's list the main advantages of such hair cosmetics:

• safe formulations with innovative formulas for gentle, but at the same time long-lasting color without damaging the hair structure;
• care complexes with useful substances that not only improve the quality of the hair, but also protect it from the negative influence of external factors;
• the widest palette with a variety of current color solutions for any color type of appearance, which simplifies the choice of a suitable shade (there are many classic natural shades for adherents of a conservative style and a lot of trendy tones from copper-gold and amber to mahogany and burgundy for those who love bold experiments);
• control of the dyeing process due to the possibility of using oxygenants with different concentrations, which are selected, focusing on the condition of the hair and taking into account the desired dyeing result;
• comfortable and extremely easy to use: they blend seamlessly, apply and evenly distribute through the hair without streaks, thanks to the soft pearlescent creamy texture;
• reasonable pricing policy - Ollin products are mid-priced products that are cheaper than most professional products from world brands.

Of the relative disadvantages of Ollin dyes, one can single out the fact that their places of sale are limited to Internet sites and salons specializing in the sale of professional hair cosmetics. On the one hand, this is a plus, since the risk of acquiring a fake from official distributors is practically zero, but on the other hand, there are those who, for some reason, may find such purchase options inconvenient.

Ollin Professional dyes are products that are unique in their composition. Of the main active ingredients 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. Enveloping the hair along the entire length, proteins also form a kind of barrier in the form of a film that protects against the negative effects of external factors.
• Grape seed oil has a firming effect on the hair roots, nourishes dry scalp, and solves the problem of split ends. It is loaded with fatty acids, the unique antioxidant procyanide, vitamins B, A, E and niacin. Helps control sebum production and effectively combats excessive oily hair.
• Dexpanthenol (D-panthenol) Is an artificial analogue of provitamin B5 with a whole range of beneficial properties.It strengthens the hair roots, increases their volume, making them look more well-groomed, moisturizes and nourishes, making them more elastic, smooth and manageable. Restores the structure of damaged, thinned hair as a result of repeated dyeing, bleaching or curling. Eliminates side effects after using styling products - brittleness, split ends, dull color.
• Sunflower seed extract protects hair from the negative effects of UV radiation and oxidants, preventing hair fading. Nourishes, moisturizes hair, fills it with vitality, increasing its elasticity and smoothness.

As for ammonia, although this ingredient is part of the Ollin series for permanent dyeing, it is present there in a minimum concentration. It is important to understand that the addition of ammonium hydroxide will help achieve long-lasting hair color with the correct tone. And since it is contained in the dye to a minimum, the dyeing is obtained for the hair structure as gently as possible. In the process of coloring, the natural elements of the composition have a complex effect on the curls, simultaneously performing a protective, restorative and nourishing function.

Although Ollin paints are primarily intended for use in beauty salons, many have successfully applied them at home as well. Carrying out hair diagnostics before dyeing many times increases the chances of getting the perfect color scheme 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 along the entire length and ends. If necessary, you also need to find out the percentage of gray hair to the total mass of hair. The hair is not washed before the procedure, and gloves are used to protect the hands. Procedure for primary painting:

• take a non-metallic container and combine a dye and an oxidizing agent in it in the required proportions, most often 1: 1.5;
• to obtain an intense color or light blond on a natural base, the dye mixture is applied in two stages. First, the length is covered with a dye mixture, 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 with a mixture, immediately process the entire length;
• the standard dye holding time is half an hour, if the hair is gray, then it has to be kept for 45 minutes;
• emulsify the dye on the hair: moisten it with water, foam the dye and distribute it all over the head;
• the hair is washed under running water, then again with shampoo and finally treated with a color stabilizing treatment.

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