Its formula, rich in nourishing and protective ingredients, deeply cares for the hair, keeping it shiny, soft, and healthy after coloring. Suitable for all hair types, ideal for full coverage or root touch-up.
Mixing Ratio – Developer
For base shades from No. 5 to No. 8, the color-to-developer ratio is adjusted according to the percentage of gray hair:
20%–30% gray hair: 1:1.5 (100ml color + 150ml developer). For half portion: 50ml color + 75ml developer.
40%+ gray hair: 1:1 (100ml color + 100ml developer). For half portion: 50ml color + 50ml developer. (In this case, the tone may appear slightly darker, but gray coverage will be sufficient.)
As a rule, use 20 vol (6%) developer for accurate tone delivery and reliable gray coverage.
