Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love I have gotten sensitive to ammonia since having Covid and had to switch. I am so happy loreal has an ammonia free line I can get in person. I don't know what I would do without it. Also, the colors are very true to level. Level 5,6,7 never does me dirty like some other brands.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not as expected. This color was not as expected. It left my hair brassy and I had to do a complete correction after use. Instead of a neutral it was more of an orange.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good overall. Great Low Ammonia Formula, left hair soft and shiny, packaging is great and product size is a solid amount for the price. I liked that the developer was oil based, and available as a pair. In a cold weather climate the oil based developer was a nice pairing to this system. *Product received complementary from Bzz agent.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Pretty good, not the best for grays I really like this color line. The best part to me is no strong chemically smells. It is great to use on clients either sensitive skin & scalp. The color is easy to mix and applies evenly. Then end result is soft, shiny, colored hair. The only thing lacking is it didn’t cover all the grays.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Good packaging Reviewing off of Bzzagent. Haven't tried yet so i will just say the packaging is good and came with oil based developer

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Great grey coverage and leaves hair feeling soft and shiny. Very easy on the scalp for my extra sensitive clients. Product consistency was a plus as well, I loved that it stayed in place without running.
Date published: 2025-01-09
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great color line! This color is really nice. There isn’t a strong chemical smell and the consistency is perfect for easy application. Didn’t bother my clients scalp who usually had irritation from color.
Date published: 2025-01-08
Rated 5 out of 5 by from New Fave Line! This color delivers rich pigment, hydration and shine every time. I can’t say enough good things about it! I get 100% grey coverage even on my clients with thick hair and resistant greys.
Date published: 2025-01-08
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good for clients with sensitivities. Good coverage and low smell. I think this would be great for clients with sensitivities. And the red color was really nice and vibrant!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Overall good permanent color [Employee of saloncentric] The color does not have strong smell, which is nice. The consistency when mixed is easy to apply. It seems to be a good color line with good results and covers grey hair well. It is more expensive than some other brands though.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Good hair color The iNOA Ammonia Permanent color works. It's more of an opaque coverage.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not great Didn't love it. Used way too much color and recieved uneven results.
Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not a huge fan While this didn’t have any strong smell or harsh reactions, I also don’t think it gave the coverage it needs for the price point. It’s not a vibrant “fresh” color. I probably wouldn’t purchase more, but I’ll use what I have for lowlights
Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great color! This is my go-to hair color for client with sensitivities. Very low odor, and great full coverage. Feels very gentle for my sensitive customers.
Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Liked, didn’t love I was given a sample in exchange for an honest review. I received 6.0 and 5.62. The color line does not have a strong smell, which I like, and the consistency makes it pretty easy to apply. I feel like this is a solid color line with good results, the red was nice and vibrant, but I do not think it stands out enough to justify the high price point.
Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great ammonia free option A great option for ammonia free color! Goes on smooth and has good grey coverage. Dont love more than my current color line but definitely a good alternative to keep as a back up!
Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Highly recommend! I absolutely love the grey coverage this product has! Also, it being ammonia free made it extremely gentle on my older clients hair. The color came out absolutely beautifully.

Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Would use again. I liked this color. It gave me nice grey coverage and the hair felt great afterwards. I didn’t love the smell but it is something I can get past.
Date published: 2025-01-06
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Nice consistency. Not for resistant gray I absolutely love the creamy consistency of this color and the spreadabilty. It is a nice shade and leaves the hair so soft and shiny. It doesn’t cover grays well however

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great consistency Like the consistency of this color, wish that there were more shades available

French Blending gray coverage vs. Classic gray coverage before and after photos
Retouch blending, dimensional grey blending salon service before and after photo

FAQs

A: It’s a trademarked L’Oreal Professionel service that pairs innovative, unique color recipes with technique to follow the grey pattern, instead of covering them.

A: French Blending is a highly personalized strategy pairing unique color recipes with innovative application techniques for more natural, multidimensional grey coverage.

A: For anyone seeking a natural, modern, low-maintenance approach to greys. For clients who prefer enhancing their natural tones rather than masking them.

A:


1. Retouch Blending: Loyal clients who do touchups at home. 

  • Blend greys with a seamless low-maintenance touch-up. 


2. Total Blending: Retain loyalty clients & wants less maintenance. 

  • Embrace greys with a blended, tailor-made look. 


3. First Blending: Recruit 1st grey color service in-salon. 

  • Blend the first signs of greys, with a natural, lived-in result. 

A: The service relies on iNOA, Dia Color, Blond Studio, and Dia light, allowing colorists to combine tone, depth, lightener with precision for a fully customized result.

A: iNOA is an ammonia-free permanent hair color powered by Oil Delivery System (ODS) technology. Its 60% oil-based formula uses the hydrophobic nature of oil and water to deliver colorant deep into the hair's cortex, with a low dose of monoethanolamine (MEA) gently opening the cuticle in place of ammonia. The result is a completely odorless application that disturbs the hair cuticle less than traditional permanent color, delivering added shine and a visibly healthy finish on all hair formations. iNOA color and developer are also certified 100% vegan.

A: iNOA follows a 1:1 mixing ratio — combine 2.1 oz. of iNOA color with 2.1 oz. of iNOA Oil Developer (available in 10, 20, or 30-vol.). Process for 35 minutes for up to 100% grey coverage. For detailed instructions on applying color through the lengths and ends, refer to the iNOA Technical Guide.
