How to use
- Mix 1 part Vibrant Color 4.1 with 1 part developer (1:1): 10 vol for tone-on-tone coverage or darkening, 20 vol for full grey coverage and greater intensity.
- Apply to dry, unwashed hair. On virgin hair, distribute first on the lengths and ends leaving 2 cm from the roots; after 15 minutes apply to the roots and leave for a further 25 minutes.
- On previously coloured hair, apply directly to the regrowth and leave for 20 minutes, then spread through the lengths for a further 10 minutes.
- Emulsify with a little lukewarm water, massaging gently for 3-4 minutes, then rinse thoroughly until all residue is removed.
- Finish with a colour-safe shampoo. For particularly resistant hair or stubborn warmth, a 30 vol developer can be used.
Results and expectations
A deep ash brown with a cool undertone that neutralises unwanted warmth, even from roots to ends and full grey coverage at 20 vol. Lanolin and hydrolyzed wheat protein help protect and nourish the fibre during processing, keeping it soft and shiny. As a permanent colour it grows out at the roots: plan a touch-up every 4 to 6 weeks.
What you need with it
Always mix with a cream developer such as Oxidizer. Maintain depth and shine with a colour-safe routine such as INEJ Color Protect Shampoo and INEJ Color Protect Mask. Professional colour in stock with fast, signed delivery across Switzerland.
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 full grey coverage and intensity. Use 10 vol for tone-on-tone coverage or darkening, or 30 vol on particularly resistant hair.
Does an ash shade neutralise warm tones?
Yes. The ash reflect (.1) counteracts unwanted warm and orange undertones for a cooler, more natural brown.
