Why does it matter which hair color your stylist uses?
April 10, 2018
Most people don’t really consider what is in their hair color. Some don’t even know the brand their stylist uses. The right brand of haircoloring should be like “The Fountain of Youth” for your hair. It can make your hair shining, vibrant, and radiant!

At Salon U, I have always been extremely picky about my brands and especially the ingredients in them.

The other day as I was training a young stylist, I was explaining, what is in our color and why that is important.
Framesi color has:
  • Highly refined dye molecules 
  • Less than 2% ammonia to open the cuticle
  • A base of creamy coconut oil
Because the dye molecules are so Nano small Framesi uses a lower percentage of ammonia than most colors. (Other brands can use as much as 30% pew!).

​Ammonia is still the safest way to open the cuticle, but you don’t want to blast it open, the cuticle is after all the protective outer layer of the hair.

Some other brands have dye molecules that are so large they need that high of ammonia to get the color inside to the cortex, (that is the inside of the hair where color lives). Framesi also nestles their color in a creamy coconut oil base. Coconut reduces protein loss when you color hair. Hair is basically protein so this is huge!
So essentially, Framesi colors are gentler on the hair and they condition as they color. Framesi also has Framcolor Eclectic which contains no ammonia at all. It uses an encapsulation technology that helps get the color into the hair, not on top of it, so it last longer than most ammonia free colors.
​
What happened next, totally validated everything I just explained to my stylist.


My client, whom I was rinsing her colour at the time, piped up. She said, “You know That explains a lot to me, before I came to this salon, I remember my hair always felt tacky after colour. It also never really looked natural, it was dull too. Then it would always fade to a weird brassy colour. Since I have been coming here, my hair feels so good. It looks so shining and it never fades to a strange color. I also remember, that my Husband used to say, “EW your hair smells like you just got it colored!” He never says that now.” This client also told us she was sitting in the doctor’s office and a complete stranger complemented her hair. She said that had never happened to her before she started coming to SALONU, now it happens all the time. The best hair color definitely will make a difference in your hair. We choose Framesi, it is simply the best, so should you!
