What It Is

The dedicated developer for Shades EQ Gloss that is approximately a 7-volume hydrogen peroxide developer.

What It Does

• Specifically formulated to maintain an acidic pH and stabilize viscosity.
• Used with Shades EQ Gloss it ensures the proper tone, depth and durability.
• Doesn't lift hair’s natural pigment.

What Else You Need to Know

Exclusive to Redken:

Why settle for less than number 1?

• Shades EQ is the #1 Acidic Demi Permanent Haircolor in the United States.

 

Shades EQ is the healthiest way to tone!

• It is best to use an acidic demi permanent color after lightening hair as it offers gentle processing for outstanding condition and shine!

• With Shades EQ, there is no need to worry about banding or harsh regrowth as acidic color does not lift.

 

Shades EQ provides the industry's best true violet acidic toner!

• The best-selling 09V is every stylist's must-have.

• Mix in a 1:1 ratio with Shades EQ Gloss.
• Shades EQ Gloss may be applied with a bowl and brush or bottle and may be diluted with Crystal Clear to lessen intensity or customize any shade.
• Process at room temperature for 20 minutes, up to 40 minutes for gray hair.
• For resistant hair, process for 15 minutes with plastic cap under pre-heated warm dryer. Remove cap and cool for 5 minutes.
• For resistant gray hair, process 20 minutes with plastic cap under pre-heated warm dryer. Remove cap and process for additional 20 minutes at room temperature.
• Follow with Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner.

*No other developer may be substituted for Processing Solution. To do so would cause unpredictable results.

 

PRO TIP: Shades EQ Processing solution is a dedicated developer for Shades EQ Gloss shades that is formulated to maintain an acidic pH and stabilize viscosity. The liquid formula is perfect for bottle application.

2% Hydrogen Peroxide

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Processing solution This processing solution is my favorite due to it being able to be used differently. It thickens up very nice if you’re patient enough, which is nice for when you don’t have the gel processing solution!
