Key Features and Benefits

  • Optimal Lift: 6% (20 vol) developer lifts up to 1-2 levels, perfect for covering gray hair or achieving subtle color changes.
  • Even Color Results: Specially formulated to ensure uniform color development and reduce banding or patchiness.

How to Use

For best results, mix Igora Royal Activator with Igora Royal color cream in a 1:1 ratio (e.g., 30ml color + 30ml developer). Apply to dry, unwashed hair. Processing time varies depending on desired result, typically 30-45 minutes at room temperature. Rinse thoroughly and follow with a color-safe shampoo and conditioner. Always perform a patch test 48 hours before use to check for allergic reactions.
