The present specification provides a method for changing the color of keratinic fibers. The method includes producing a ready-to-use agent before application by combining a powdered preparation that includes at least one oxidation dye precursor and at least one pigment that does not change the color of the keratinic fibers with a liquid preparation that includes at least one chemical oxidizing agent. The method also includes mixing the powdered preparation and the liquid preparation. The method also includes distributing the ready-to-use agent on the keratinic fibers, leaving the ready-to-use agent on the keratinic fibers for a period from 1 to 60 minutes, and washing the remaining ready-to-use agent out of the keratinic fibers.
