No, Shades EQ cannot be used without a developer. It is a demi-permanent hair color that requires a specific Shades EQ Processing Solution to activate the formula and achieve the desired results. Using it without the developer would not provide the necessary chemical reaction for color application.
Redken Shades EQ should be mixed with Redken Shades EQ Processing Solution. This line does not require 30 volume developer.
Oh, what a happy little question! You can use 20 volume developer with Redken Shades EQ color Gloss, but it's typically recommended to use 10 volume for deposit-only color like Shades EQ. Using a higher volume developer may lift the natural hair color slightly, so be mindful of that. Just remember to trust your instincts and enjoy the process of creating beautiful hair colors!
PM (Paul Mitchell) Shines is formulated to be mixed with the PM Processing liquid. Shades EQ products should not be mixed with PM products.
Redken Shades EQ should be left on the hair for 20 minutes at room temp. If heat is added, leave on hair for 15 minutes.
No, it is not recommended to use Redken EQ color gloss developer with other demi-permanent colors. Each brand's developer is specifically formulated to work with its own color line, ensuring optimal results and hair health. Mixing different products can lead to unpredictable color outcomes and may compromise the integrity of the hair. Always use the developer that is designed for your specific color brand.
Yes obviously
This is going to be a medium red-brown, depending on the ratio you use.
Shades EQ is Redken's demi-permanent hair color. It has very tiny, trace levels of ammonia in it, so it is not damaging to the hair. This is great for correcting, depositing, filling, brightening, toning and glossing.
I have studied with Redken Color Systems and, when using Shades EQ, it should be applied to DRY hair so as not to dilute the formula...which would occur if applied to wet hair.
2 months.. I think I've had it once before
Yes. You would only want to apply the permanent on the new growth (zone 1), though, and then pull the Shades EQ through the ends (zone 2 and 3).
Yes, Redken Shades EQ is considered safe to use on the hair. It is a demi-permanent hair color that is ammonia-free, which can be less damaging than permanent hair color formulations. As with any hair coloring product, it is essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions and conduct a patch test before applying it to your hair.
