WHAT IS REFLECT?

When talking haircolor, reflect is the tone and depth that our eyes perceive. Warmer tones reflect more light, while cooler tones absorb light. Keep this in mind when formulating

Koleston Perfect color is modern with a beautiful reflect that is less matte. The condition leaves the hair shiny with a more compact cuticle, leaving hair incredibly shiny

Our shades have a Balanced Primary Tonal Direction. This was developed to meet what a colorist would expect from each tone, the primary tone being most dominant Examples: /1 are cool with a balanced gray less matte green/gold /34 truer copper with less coolness more golden copper /43 less cool red and more true copper /7 less cool/mauve and pure balanced brown /28 truer to tone, ideal for corrective formulations /11 more cool gray than previous warm matte gray

TOO LIGHT?

Decrease the % / Volume of your Welloxon Developer, except with Gray Coverage

Decrease your target level by ½ level to 1 level darker

Add a cooler tone to your formula. The cooler tone will make the color appear deeper

For Gray Coverage: Try Intense Pure Naturals, great for coarser textures

For Gray Coverage: Did you check the percentage of gray? Be sure to adda portion of the target shade for best results when using /0 shades

Refer to our Koleston Perfect Gray Coverage Tips Guide and Video

TOO DARK?

Increase your target level by ½ to 1 level lighter

Watch out for porosity. Check with client for any skin care routines such as AHAs and Glycolic Acid treatments, all can create a pre-softening effect on the hairline.

Dilute your Glossing formula with 0/00

For Gray Coverage: Did you check the percentage of gray/texture? Try a non Intense Pure Naturals shade
