permanent color that repairs damaged hair

I think references to "dye" are usually avoided in marketing text. They tend to talk about "hair colors" and "colored hair," "color-treated hair," etc.

What's wrong with repairs? It's certainly used.

Hair Repair
Elumen does more than color the hair - it actually repairs the hair's structure. Here's how it works: Stressed hair structures have internal porous areas, similar to small holes, reducing the hair's gloss and vibrancy. But with Elumen, that's no problem. It smoothes porous and damaged sections not only on the surface, but deep inside the hair shaft, providing a healthy, smooth surface that reflects light perfectly and gives the color in the hair unprecedented shine.

Our dyes renew (and revitalize) your hair as they color it!

I like the word revitalize for this one. Would it be an accurate claim for the product?

a permanent colour that repairs your hair while/as it tints

I think it's possible to say "permanent dye", although I prefer colour, which is why I've suggested tint (to vary vocab). I've also changed the sentence around a bit because the fact that it repairs your hair as it colours is the most important bit of info, in my opinion.

so it could also be:
a permanent dye that repairs your hair while/as it colours

so, it's very literal, but I think that the message the company wants to get across can't be changed.

hair dye will save the world
Found in the pages of the oh-so-educational Province, is a whole new kind of hair dye called Elumen. A permanent hair dye that can be reversed, doesn't fade, and can repair the hair. God only knows how it works, investigation on the Goldwell site didn't reveal any kinds of information except how lovely it will make you look, but right now, who the heck cares? For someone with thick hair that needs to be bleached before holding colour, and with a fondness for shades of blue and bright red, this very well could change my life. At least until it's proven the stuff causes cancer.
