FF5 Sand Blonde

Herbatint FF5 Sand Blonde is a permanent haircolour gel from the Flash Fashion (FF) series, the part of the Herbatint range built for vivid fashion tones rather than natural depths. FF5 Sand Blonde is the soft neutral sand tone of the series. It is supplied in Australia by Raylara Pty Ltd.

The 150 mL box contains the colour gel, a glycol developer, a Normalising Shampoo and a Royal Cream Conditioner. Mixed one to one with the developer and left for 40 minutes, it gives a permanent result.
