The Intense and Refined Black Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of absolute black with Grace Color 1.0 Black. This shade envelops hair in a deep, intense hue, reminiscent of the velvety brilliance of a polished onyx stone. Its extraordinary shine reflects light with sophistication, creating the optical illusion of thicker, healthier hair. Perfect for those seeking full gray coverage and a pure black shade without unwanted undertones. Its ammonia-free formula is gentle on the hair fiber, making it ideal for sensitive scalps and professionals looking for a flawless, long-lasting color.

Why choose this product: Grace Color 1.0 Black is the perfect choice for those who want an intense and uniform black without compromising hair health. Thanks to its ammonia-free formula, it offers maximum gray coverage while preserving the hair structure. The primary pigment responsible for this shade is Toluene-2,5-Diamine Sulfate, which ensures pure, deep black that resists washing.

Enriched with hydrolyzed keratin, Argan oil, and Shea butter, this color not only dyes but also nourishes and protects the hair fiber, leaving it soft, silky, and shiny. The presence of grape seed oil and wheat proteins helps maintain hair hydration, preventing dryness and the dull effect typical of dark dyes. Avocado oil and citrus extracts add extra brilliance, ensuring a color that remains vibrant over time.

How to achieve the desired color step by step: To prepare Grace Color 1.0 Black, mix 50 ml of color cream with 75 ml of Activator in a 1:1.5 ratio. For standard coloring, use a 20-volume developer for optimal gray coverage or a 30-volume developer for a deeper, more intense black.

For virgin hair that has never been colored, apply the color from mid-lengths to ends and leave it on for 15 minutes. Then, apply to the roots and leave it on for another 30 minutes.

For previously colored hair, apply the product only to the regrowth and let it process for 30 minutes. At the end of the processing time, lightly dampen the hair and emulsify the color on mid-lengths and ends, leaving it on for an additional 5-10 minutes to even out the tone.

Emulsification and rinsing: At the end of the processing time, add a little warm water and gently massage the color into the lengths to emulsify it. Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear. Follow with a color-safe shampoo and finish with a nourishing conditioner or a deep treatment mask, such as Nika Age Restore Deep Conditioner, to lock in the color and keep the hair fiber hydrated.

Tips:

• Avoid frequent washing to maintain color longevity and use a sulfate-free shampoo.
• Apply a heat protectant before using hot tools to prevent color fading.
• Use a deep conditioning mask once a week to keep hair soft and shiny.
• For optimal gray coverage, choose a 20-volume developer and follow the recommended processing times.
