Hair colour is one of the most tightly controlled cosmetic categories in the UK and EU, and for good reason. Hair dye allergies can be severe, so only approved dye substances can be used, each one has its own limit, and the label must carry detailed safety warnings. If your Product Information File (PIF) doesn't get these details right, your product simply can't be sold.

Our PIF for Hair Colour & Bleach covers temporary, semi-permanent and permanent hair colourants, colour-depositing products, henna and plant-based dyes, bleaching powders and lighteners, developers, colour removers and colour restorers. We prepare a complete, inspection-ready file that meets UK and EU cosmetic law, so you can sell to consumers and salons with full confidence.

Why Hair Colour Needs a Specialist PIF

Every cosmetic sold in Great Britain or the EU needs a PIF under Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and its UK equivalent. Hair colour products face some of the strictest rules of any cosmetic:

  • Only approved dyes are allowed. Hair dye substances must be specifically listed in Annex III, with maximum concentrations on the head after mixing. Any dye not on the list can't be used, full stop.
  • Mandatory allergy warnings. Oxidative and many direct dyes must carry the standard hair dye warning text, including the allergy alert test, the under-16 restriction and the "black henna" tattoo warning.
  • Hydrogen peroxide and persulfates. Developers have a strict peroxide limit, and bleaching powders containing persulfates need careful assessment for skin and breathing sensitisation.
  • Mixing ratios matter. Permanent colour is assessed as it's used on the head, after mixing with developer. Your file needs to show the safety assessment matches the instructions on your box.
  • Colour restorers and natural dyes. Lead acetate is banned, metallic restorers face tight rules, and henna and indigo products must be free from unlisted dyes like PPD.

We cover every one of these points in a single, well-organised document.

What's Included in Your Hair Colour & Bleach PIF

  • Product description: product name, type, intended user (consumer or professional), shade range, mixing ratios and kit components, clearly linked to each SKU.
  • Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR): Parts A and B, cross-referenced from your safety assessment, based on on-head concentrations after mixing.
  • Hair dye substance review: every dye checked against the Annex III positive list, with concentrations confirmed for each shade.
  • Labelling review: full hair dye warning text, allergy alert test instructions, professional-use statements and glove instructions matched to your safety assessment.
  • Oxidiser and bleach documentation: hydrogen peroxide strength, persulfate content and dust-control considerations for powders.
  • Raw material evidence: purity and impurity data for dye substances, and supplier certificates for henna, indigo and other botanical dyes.
  • Stability evidence: stability data for colour creams, developers and kit components.
  • Manufacturing method and GMP statement: mixing, filling and kit assembly processes documented in line with ISO 22716.
  • Claims substantiation: evidence behind wording like "100% grey coverage", "ammonia-free", "lasts up to 8 weeks", "lifts up to 7 levels", "natural" or "vegan".
  • Animal testing declaration: confirming testing status of the product and its ingredients under Article 18.
  • One inspection-ready file held at your Responsible Person's address and easy to present on request.

A Product Information File (PIF) is a required compliance document for hair colourants, dye removers, hair bleaches, and colour restorers. It contains essential product information, safety assessment, formulation details, manufacturing information, and evidence supporting the product's cosmetic claims. Hair colourants and bleaches are specifically recognised within the UK cosmetic product notification categories.


Yes. Hair colour products, including temporary, semi-permanent, and permanent colourants, require appropriate cosmetic compliance documentation when placed on the Great Britain market. The Responsible Person must maintain an up-to-date PIF and ensure the product has been assessed for safety before it is made available to consumers.


Yes. Hair bleach and dye remover products are included in the UK cosmetic product categories. Because these products may contain regulated ingredients and can involve multi-component formulations, their formulation, safety information, instructions, and supporting documentation need to be properly assessed and maintained within the compliance file.


A PIF generally includes a description of the cosmetic product, Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR), formulation and ingredient information, manufacturing and GMP details, evidence supporting product claims, and other relevant safety and compliance documentation. The PIF should remain updated throughout the product's time on the market.


Yes. Before a cosmetic hair colour or bleach product is made available to consumers in Great Britain, its safety must be assessed by a qualified safety assessor. The resulting Cosmetic Product Safety Report forms an essential part of the PIF.


It depends on the products and their formulations. Different shades may have different colourants, ingredients, concentrations, or component systems. Each product must be appropriately assessed, and significant differences may require separate or specifically updated PIF documentation.


For Great Britain, the PIF must be retained for 10 years after the last batch of the cosmetic product was placed on the market. It is also treated as a living document and should be updated when relevant product, safety, or supporting information changes.
