2 WHAT IS A DEMI-PERMANENT HAIR COLOR? The term demi-permanent refers to a relatively new generation of ammonia-free colorants that combine permanent and semi-permanent technology. They have recently gained in popularity for in-salon services due to their gentle care action and hi-glossy, color result. There are two types of demi-permanent technology: an ammonia-free, mild-alkaline or ammonia-free non-alkaline. When formulated with a low hydrogen-peroxide (10 Volume), they allow the undeveloped color pigments to oxidize in the cortex with little-to-no effect on the hair s natural pigments once they have penetrated the cuticle. The durability of the color will depend on the hair quality and client s home maintenance regime. RECOMMENDED USAGE: Zero lift, deposit only with non-alkaline technology Minimum shifting of natural pigment with mild-alkaline technology Sheer to full-body tone-on tone deposit Enhance hair s natural tone Tone pre-lightened full head or highlights Refresh tone of previously highlighted hair White hair blending or coverage up to 75% Refresh permanently color treated hair during permanent color retouch ANY QUESTIONS?

5 CONSULTATION/FORMULATION 1. Determine the natural/existing level of hair using the Gloss Sync Level Finder. 2. Determine the desired Gloss Sync level based on the Consultation Triangle below. 1. POROSITY What is the chemical history of the hair using the porosity scale 1-5? 3. TASTE OF COLOR Do you prefer a sheer of full-bodied end result? 2. CONTROL Do you need to slightly shift the Natural Underlying Pigment or simply adjust tone? 3. Select the appropriate Gloss Sync tone. * Due to Gloss Sync s zero lift, deposit only Non-Alkaline Acid Technology, it is recommended to formulate 1-2 levels lighter. * For slight shift of Natural Underlying Pigment and/or full bodied result, choose Matrix Color Sync demi-permanent haircolor. * Mix Gloss Sync shade 1:1 with 10 Volume Matrix Cream Developer.

Tightly recap the Gloss Sync and Developer. Do not use metal utensils. Apply mixture to the test area with a cotton swab or ball. Let test spot dry.
