No, with our exothermic technology we do not recommend using heat.
For guaranteed results we recommend using the Calura developers with Calura hair color.
We recommend use of a 9%/30 volume developer for white coverage with coarse or resistant hair types only. As long as you have formulated correctly as per hair characteristics along with proper timing and shade selection you will not experience “hot roots”. Hair characteristics refers to the texture, density, elasticity and porosity of the hair.
We do not recommend adding any accelerators to our hair colour.
No, as we use keratin derived from sheep’s wool.
Our 10 volume generates the lowest amount of heat, which is not a sufficient amount of heat to allow enough opening of the cuticle.
- For toning services and with use of our Pastel series.
- For shine and hydration when mixed with Clear
- For use on damp for a demi-permanent option
For best longevity, we recommend using a 6%/ 20 volume for colour balancing or refreshing mid lengths and ends.
