[Lissmorleyx]

Ive always used wella and I am now confused as the tones on the igora are different. Can anyone help me out?
(E.g /1 is ash in wella)

.1 cendre (pearl)
.2 ash (blue)
.3 matt (green)
.4 beige (warm)
.5 gold
.6 auburn (chocolate)
.7 copper
.8 red
.9 violet

Unfortunately not! Depths tend to be names the same although visual may differ ( ie a 8 in wella may look like a 9 in swarkopft)

Tones vary too ( 4 in Clynol is auburn and 4 in wella is red!)

If that are the same tone they still might be visual different (a gold in goldwell sits closer to copper, therefore gold in wella looks more on the green side)

I think someone posted a igora conversion chart not that long ago but it has basic igora knowledge in it.
(I don't like the conversion charts as much because of the differences above)
