Colour Selection and ICC

Because of the more natural method used by Tints of nature, the colour of the hair can only be lifted by one shade (meaning you can only lighten your hair by one level).

• Each of our 24 permanent colours is described by a number followed by a letter. This is called an ICC number.
• Ranging from 1 (darkest) to 10 (lightest), the number on the box signifies the depth of colour
• First ascertain the natural base colour of your hair by comparing it with the colour on the shades ring (at health food stores and pharmacies stocking the product). Then go to the colour examples on the back of the box to see which shades are recommended.

What a hair colour is and how they work:

Semi-Permanent Hair Colouring

A true semi-permanent colour only stains the hair cuticle with colour. It cannot penetrate inside the hair to physically change your hair colour permanently. Think of it in the same way as wrapping coloured cellophane around a light bulb; the light bulb itself doesn't change colour, it simply picks up the colour from the cellophane.

Permanent Hair Colouring

Alters the colour of your hair permanently and on the inside. For this to work we have to lift the cuticle and allow the permanent colour to work into the cortex of the hair. The only way to do this is to alter the pH of the hair, and this is why the type of colour used is very important.

There are two methods to open the cuticle

One is to suspend the hair in a substance with a very high pH such as volatile ammonia. This takes the hair well beyond its normal pH and causes it to swell considerably. This is effective to allow the hair colour to work but has numerous side-effect, including damage to the hair. Only ammonia or peroxide can open the cuticle of the hair to enable the pigment to change colour.

The other, and more natural method is to suspend the hair in a substance that is non volatile and acts as a moisturiser, yet allows the hair colour to work. This will soften and lift the cuticle slightly to allow the colour to penetrate inside the hair. This is how Tints of Nature works.
