How to use
- Mix 1 part Vibrant Color 5.1 with 1 part developer (1:1), choosing the volume by the result you want: 10 vol (darkening or toning), 20 vol (grey coverage / tone-on-tone), 30 vol (lightening up to 2-3 levels).
- Apply to dry, unwashed hair.
- On virgin hair, apply first to the lengths and ends, leaving 2 cm from the roots. After 10-15 minutes, apply to the roots and leave on for a further 20-25 minutes.
- On previously coloured hair, apply to the regrowth for 20 minutes, then comb through the lengths and ends for a further 10 minutes.
- Emulsify with a few drops of warm water, massage for 3-4 minutes to even out the colour, then rinse until the water runs clear and finish with a colour-safe shampoo.
Results and expectations
A rich, even light ash brown from roots to ends with reliable grey coverage at 20 vol. Hydrolyzed wheat protein and conditioning agents help 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 reliable grey coverage. Use the lower or higher volumes only to deepen, tone or lighten as described above.
Can I mix it with other shades?
Yes. It can be blended with neighbouring shades from the Vibrant Color range to fine-tune the reflect, always keeping the 1:1 ratio with developer and a patch test before each service.
