Results and expectations
A luminous light brown with warm mahogany reflects and a soft beige undertone, even from roots to ends and full grey coverage at 20 vol. Hydrolyzed wheat protein, panthenol, glycerin and botanical extracts help protect the fibre during processing. As a permanent colour it grows out at the roots: plan a touch-up every 4 to 6 weeks.

FAQ
Which developer gives full grey coverage?
Mix 1:1 with a 20 vol developer for full grey coverage. Use 10 vol to darken or tone, 30 vol for light brightening, or 40 vol for a more intense lift.
How do I intensify the reflects?
Add a small percentage of Pure Pigment 0.66 Red to the mix for richer warmth, or process with a higher developer volume. Avoid frequent washing and use a colour-safe routine to preserve the shine.
