KIS Royal Color SoftShades 100 ml is a demi-permanent hair dye for those who want to color their hair, refresh an existing color, or correct unwanted color nuances without lightening the natural hair color. The formula is free of ammonia and PPD and is used in combination with KIS SoftShades Activator .
SoftShades gives the hair an intense color dimension and shine and is suitable for various coloring techniques. In addition to an initial coloring, you can use the line for color refreshing, color correction, lowlighting, and grey blending . Because the natural hair color is not lightened, SoftShades is also an interesting option when you want to add or refresh color without opting for a permanent lightening treatment.
SoftShades uses a special Color Booster formula developed to intensify the color dimension. At the same time, the coloring focuses on caring for the hair during the coloring process.
An important difference compared to traditional permanent hair dye is that SoftShades does not lighten the natural hair color . The color fades gradually, limiting a harsh root line. This makes the coloring suitable for clients who want to change or refresh their color without immediately committing to a permanent dye.
KIS SoftShades is free from ammonia and PPD (p-phenylenediamine/paraphenylenediamine) . Please note: PPD-free does not automatically mean that a hair dye is free from all other oxidative dyes or that an allergic reaction is impossible.
Hair dye can cause a severe allergic reaction. Therefore, always read the safety information and instructions for use of the product and follow the prescribed precautions.
An interesting application of SoftShades is refreshing previously colored hair. When only the roots require a permanent treatment, it is not necessarily required to apply the same permanent color to the entire lengths and ends every time.
SoftShades can be used to restore vibrancy and color dimension to the lengths and ends. This makes the line suitable as a complement within a professional color treatment.
SoftShades can also be used for grey blending . This is not about complete permanent grey coverage, but about softening and blending grey hairs with the rest of the hair color.
This provides a more natural transition effect and can be interesting when full, permanent coverage is not desired.
KIS SoftShades is used with the accompanying KIS SoftShades Activator . Mix:
1 part SoftShades + 1 part KIS Activator (1:1).
So, for 50 ml of SoftShades, you use 50 ml of Activator. For the full contents of 100 ml of SoftShades, 100 ml of Activator is required.
The exact processing time, within the range of 5 to 20 minutes, depends on the desired color treatment and the desired result. Always follow the current KIS instructions for use.
The main difference is that SoftShades is intended to deposit color without lightening the natural hair color . A permanent oxidative coloring can, depending on the formula and developer used, lighten natural hair.
SoftShades is therefore particularly interesting when the goal is adding color, refreshing the color, correcting nuances, lowlights, or grey blending, and lightening the natural base is not necessary.
The SoftShades line consists of an extensive range of natural and fashionable color shades. The shades can be used within the SoftShades system to create various color results.
Choose the color code that matches the base color and the desired end result. Please note that a demi-permanent color cannot lighten existing hair; therefore, the base color has a significant influence on the final result.
The exact ingredient list may vary per SoftShades shade, as different shades may contain different dyes and pigment components. Therefore, always check the packaging of the chosen SoftShades color for the complete, current INCI list.
