Medications can play a part in color longevity. The best way to remedy this is to use a corresponding color shampoo at home 1-2 times a week. Kadus Fervidol Color & Care custom color shampoo is perfect because it can impeccably match your color or adjust existing color. Personalized color shampoos are extremely unique and vital for color retention. Discover the Kadus Salon near you on our Kadus Salon Finder (home page, bottom right hand corner).

Fervidol Color & Care Shampoo is a two part customized temporary color that is can greatly assist in color intensity in-between appointments. Color & Care Shampoo is a clear shampoo base that is in a 2/3 full bottle. The stylist simply matches a Fervidol Color & Care liquid color to the client’s hair and adds it into the shampoo base. Once a week, shampoo with the appropriate cleansing shampoo one time, towel blot and shampoo with the custom blended Fervidol Color & Care Shampoo. Retain for 3-5 minutes. Rinse well and style as usual. (Conditioner is not necessary due to the conditioning base of Fervidol Color & Care.)

When toning use a demi-permanent form of Selecta Premium (2 parts of 10 volume Selecta Premium Developer & 1 part of Selecta Premium color). If you want to counteract too much orange, use 10/1; too much yellow, use 10/6 or 10/8. Sometimes the hair is actually too hollow and requires a little warmth; this is when 10/3 is very effective. This season you will even see some light strawberry blonds. To refresh strawberry blonds use 10/4.

Adjust your regime to include moisture products such as Kadus Imunal Hydro Energy Mask. Leave-in products really help to add hydration and control the “fly-a-ways”. Try Kadus Imunal Hydro Energy Mousse or Spray & Repair Energy Ends Balm before styling and experience the benefits.

This is one of the most commonly asked questions. Here are some facts to keep in mid
1. We do not mix haircolor in a metal bowl but we put it in a metal foil hmmm. There is a reaction to the iron content that reacts strongly with Highlift tint.

2. Highlift tint is formulated for on the scalp applications by all manufacturers they have never been reformulated for foil use.

3. Aluminum foil is the sludge off of the bottom of the vat when you make steel. This creates inconsistencies in the iron content of you foil. An example of this is if you have ever experienced one box of foils that are thicker than the next.

4. Metal is a heat conductor in essence doing the same thing that developer does so when you confine 30-40 vol in a foil it really is working at 50-60 vol (then keep in mind most hairdressers apply heat too!)

5. Well water and city water have iron content in them that creates a mineral wall in the hair that is unseen to the eye. This is easily remedied with Imunal intensive cleanser under a warm dryer for 5 minutes. Follow with Imunal Repair Express Creme than foil damp hair. If your guest has well water make sure she is using Imunal Intensive Cleanser at a minimum of weekly along with a water filter on the shower head.

What is the solution then? Change the mixing ratio of your highlift tint to a 1:1 ratio. The foil will do part of the work for you creating a more refined beautiful blond with a good 4 levels of lift.
