Light color

Here you will find an explanation of the structure of the different light colors. A natural color is the color that does not contain a dot and numbers behind it. These will always cover a certain area better and provide better durability. A reflective color is a color that has numbers behind the dot in cold or warm shades. The hair closest to the scalp always attracts more warm pigments, while the lengths and ends always attract more cold pigments. The lengths and ends attract more color and therefore we recommend a lighter shade in the lengths for an even result from root to tip.

	No. 0.0 - Clear This is a shade without any pigments. By mixing this into another color, the color will be slightly weaker and milder. Using this alone will not give any effect.
	No. 10.02 - Cold Very Light Blonde This is the lightest shade that contains a small amount of purple to neutralize yellow.
	No. 10.1 - Ice Light Blonde This is the lightest very cool shade that contains blue to neutralize orange, or can be used for lightening if you want a more silver color. If your hair contains a little yellow, you should always use this in combination with purple.
	No. 10 - Very Light Blonde This is the lightest natural color we have. Great for toning down completely light hair, or in combination with a reflective color to achieve a more natural result. Great for covering gray hair.
	No. 9.3 - Golden Blonde This is a light natural color with a hint of yellow that gives a golden glow to the color. Perfect in combination with natural color to darken light hair a little and avoid green.
	No. 9.12 - Cold Blonde This light natural color is cool and contains a small amount of purple and blue. This is perfect for neutralizing yellow and at the same time giving a cool result due to the blue. This color contains a larger proportion of natural color no. 9 than, for example, 9.21.
	No. 9.21 - Very Cold Blonde This is a very cool color that contains little natural color and a large proportion of cool pigments. Perfect for powerful neutralization of golden. It neutralizes both yellow and orange. Because it is so cold, it can appear darker on light hair.
	No. 9 - Light Blonde This is a natural natural color. This is built up so that it is exactly the same as a natural tone number 9 and will therefore not turn green in light hair. Already lightened hair always attracts more color and can therefore be perceived as darker.
	No. 8.43 - Light Copper Blonde A natural copper color, perfect for natural redheads. High yellow content provides brightness, while orange dominates for a rich copper tone. The balance creates a light but distinct copper color.
	No. 8 - Blonde This is a medium blonde color, which contains a tiny bit of gold that gives the color a little warmth.
	No. 7.34 - Golden Copper Blonde This color has the main part of orange. This is a slightly dark copper color. Orange is made up of red and yellow. This is perfect in combination with no. 9.3 for a slightly lighter and more natural red hair.
	No. 7.1 - Cold Dark Blonde This is a cold dark blonde color that will look very natural as natural hair is mostly cold in tone. This is perfect in combination with, for example, 9.12 or 10.02 to give more depth to hair. In already lightened hair, this will appear brown.

There is a big difference between coloring uncolored hair and hair that has already been treated.

Uncolored hair needs more pigment, i.e. a darker color and a longer exposure time than already treated hair. The main reason for this is that treated hair is already open so the pigments are absorbed into the hair faster. While uncolored hair needs time to open. Already colored/lightened hair will therefore always be darker than uncolored hair if you use the same hair color and the same exposure time on the entire hair.

Light color:

Lightening is best done on completely dry hair and is best done if the hair is not freshly washed as the oil layer on the scalp will protect it a bit. Dry shampoo should be washed out before lightening as this can cause a chemical reaction. Lightening will never give a cold hair color if used on virgin hair.

It is recommended that the hair is not freshly washed before applying the lightening dye, as the fat layer on the scalp offers protection. The lightening dye is always applied to completely dry hair. The amount of lightening achieved depends on the strength of the H2O2. Use 3% to avoid the color becoming darker. For a light lightening, 6% and 7.5% can be used. For a stronger and more visible lightening, 12% is recommended, but this should only be used on untreated hair or hair that is strong. The result can often be improved with the help of a friend during application.

Mixing ratio

Light color:
Mix together H2O2 (90ml) and Mix (2 tubes)

Procedure:

Light color:
The application process should begin at the back, as the hair around the hairline is thinner and lightens faster. Finish the application around the face. To achieve an even result, the regrowth should not exceed 3cm.

Remember that the hair color does not start working until it is out of the color bowl, so if the application takes a little longer, it will not affect the final result.
