It is mixed with either 1.9% or 4% Releaser (peroxide) mix ratio 1+2. it is full of waxes and shine reflecting pigments and can be used directly after perming , its really Fab

You would be perhaps know it as another named product: Goldwell /loreal
jiocio sorry don't know how to spell it,
or that one you use for glossing but with the color in it.

Uh. No it is called Wella colortouch here also.

I have used it off and on for about 11 years now.. Joico also has something similar ~ don't care for it.
I basically use Redken Shades EQ. This one give 100% grey coverage with heat, 75 % coverage w/o heat. Redken is the same as Wella. use it right in your neutralizer as a color boost or afterwards as a demi color all over.

Thanks for the definition of Quasi color

Yup they're the ones long lasting semis/ demis = Quasi just a fancy name for it,

The Tip about taking the darker foils out first and rinsing well and the blond last is excellent I always do this ,

It leaves the blond hair so much brighter,

mmmm Just thinking, the reason why i don't really like the shorter lasting semis ,eg color fresh ect 8/10 washes,
I find when the client washes it at home it lathers up color again and the lather tends to give subdued hues on the highlights after each wash,
what do you think and anyone else?
thank you for the edit tip JDs
