    FAQs

    What shades are available in the Wella Color Fresh CREATE range?

    You can choose from 12 vibrant shades in the Wella Color Fresh CREATE range. These specially crafted colours are designed to gradually fade into soft, pastel tones, offering flexibility for different hair looks.

    Do you have to dye your whole head with bright colours?

    You don’t need to dye your entire head to use bright colours. Options like hidden panels, pastelage and coloured roots allow you to add just a dash of colour, so you can experiment without committing to a full-head transformation.

    Will bright colour hair dye fade into subtle shades over time?

    Yes, the vibrant shades are designed to gradually fade into pastel dreaminess. This means your look will evolve over time, so you can enjoy a softer colour after the initial vibrancy.

    How can you add a touch of colour to your hair easily?

    Adding a dash of flare to your hair is simple with techniques like hidden panels, pastelage and coloured roots. These methods let you try colour in a controlled way, so you can stay on trend without feeling overwhelmed by a full-head change.

    Is the Color Fresh CREATE range just for festival season?

    No, bright colours from the Color Fresh CREATE range aren’t only for festival season. With the variety of shades and flexible application techniques, you can incorporate them into your style all year round.
