Types of Hair Dye by OPAWZ

There are different kinds of dog hair dyes available on the market, each yielding a different result and in some cases requiring a different application process. At OPAWZ we offer two main types of dye, permanent and semi-permanent.

Semi-Permanent Dye

Ideal if you're looking to spruce up your pet's style without the long-term commitment of a permanent dye, our semi-permanent dye gradually washes away (around 8 washes) and is suitable for groomers of all skill levels.

  • Non-toxic and gentle on pet's coat
  • No ammonia or peroxide
  • Safe to use on cats

How To Use Our Dog Hair Dye

The application process for both of our hair dyes is mostly the same. For best results you will want to shampoo and towel dry first. Then start applying the dye evenly to the desired areas.

  • Semi-permanent dye – after application cover the area in plastic wrap or foil, wait 20 minutes, rinse clear and dry.
  • Permanent dye – wait for 10-20 minutes, rinse clear and dry.

General Points To Remember

  • If this is the first time using OPAWZ pet dye, do a 48 hour test on a small patch before applying.
  • Wear a pair of rubber gloves.
