Licensed Cosmetologists-Color Line

Hi girl’s….these questions are directed at licensed
professionals…I am looking to invest in a new professional
color line. Okay, so girlie’s…..all you color specialist I have a
few Q’s for ya if you don’t mind sharing….

1. What is your favorite bleach/lightener…oil/crème/powder
and what line?
2. What is your favorite permanent & semi color line?
3. What are the best demi permanents you have used (most
gentle but lasting color)?
4. Of all the color lines you have used who has the best
training/customer service?

Would love any input to see what everyone likes…
Many Thanks

1.:  Scruples Blazing are a series of ligtheners that lighten the hair and deposit a tone.

2:Permanent line: I liked Socolor, very predictable by high ammonia content, so I don't use it anymore. 

Used Scruples High Definition color, liked it but the reds faded out too quick.  It also had a demi lotion that when you mixed it with the tint, it neutralized the ammonia in the tint and made the permanent tint into a demi.

Now I'm playing around with Framesi Furtura.  It's an Italian color, and the European colors (like Goldwell, Wella, Schwartzkopf) are known to have fantasic, long lasting reds.  This color also has a demi lotion that you mix with the tint that turns the permanent into a demi. 

Demi color:  Matrix color synch is the bomb!  Good gray coverage for a demi and very good for lowlighting overly blond hair.

Redken Shades EQ- I use the lighter shades all the time as toners- they product the best creamy, natural looking blonds in all tones.

I haven't been to a color class in a while.  They don't have then in my area a lot.  I want to schedule a Framesi class soon though.

Yip!! I knew you girls would be the first to jump in !!
Love ya!! I am driving myself crazy trying to decide which line to
start with.

nope not me- i am tanglesrc...sorry!

I use Schwartzkopf for everything.  Ever since EuroLocs used it as their color swatch for their extensions instead of a color ring, I had to buy the swatch book and somehow just got hooked.
