Results and expectations
A deep dark brown with cool violet reflects, even from roots to ends and full grey coverage at 20 vol. P-Phenylenediamine and 2-Methylresorcinol build depth and violet intensity, while hydrolyzed wheat protein and panthenol help strengthen and protect the fibre during processing, leaving hair soft and shiny. As a permanent colour it grows out at the roots: plan a regrowth touch-up every 4 to 6 weeks.
What you need with it

Safety and patch test
Carry out an allergy alert test 48 hours before each application. This is an oxidative colour for professional use: for major changes, lightening or colour correction, rely on a qualified colourist. Wear gloves, avoid contact with the eyes and do not apply on an irritated scalp.
FAQ
Which developer gives full grey coverage?
Mix 1:1 with a 20 vol developer for tone-on-tone coverage and grey hair. Use 30 vol to enhance the reflects, or 40 vol for a lighter, more vibrant effect.
How do I intensify the violet?
Add a small amount of a violet pigment to the mix, or use a 30 vol developer to make the reflects more visible. You can also blend with a warmer violet brown from the range.
