Color gels and Shades EQ are two different types of hair color products that serve different purposes. Color gels are typically used for permanent hair color, while Shades EQ is a demi-permanent hair color. It is not recommended to mix these two products together as they have different formulations and may not produce the desired result. It is best to use each product as intended for optimal color results and hair health.
