Those who have been using TIGI cosmetics for more than 3 years claim that hair coloring cosmetics did not disappoint over such a long period. The slogan of this company "Cosmetics created by hairdressers and for hairdressers" fully justifies itself, since the product is used mainly in various beauty salons and professional hairdressing salons.
It is also noted that when using TIGI paints, a rather pleasant effect is obtained: shine and a palette of hair colors, the selected "warmth" of the tone looks harmonious.
A pleasant feature of this brand is the specific smell of paint, which differs significantly from the harsh, unpleasant aroma familiar to everyone.
Despite such a number of advantages, the paint is washed out very quickly, so the effect of revitalized hair will not last long.For most buyers, this is not a problem, since all tinting products have a similar defect.
