If you’re a stylist (or client) who loves to experiment with your look but isn’t ready for a long-term commitment, semi-permanent hair dye is the perfect solution. It offers the flexibility to try out bold colors, subtle tones, or refresh your current shade—all without the permanence of traditional hair dye.

Our innovative 3-IN-1 INSTA-PIC TECHNOLOGY™ combines intense direct color, deep care, and brilliant shine, giving you endless multichromatic possibilities. With Nutri Color Filters, you can get vibrant, temporary color and dazzling shine, all while nourishing and protecting the hair.

What Is Semi-Permanent Hair Dye?

Semi-permanent hair dye is a type of hair color that deposits pigment on the outer layers of the hair shaft without penetrating deeply. This means it gradually fades over time without harsh regrowth lines, making it a versatile choice for those who want to play with color.

How It Differs From Other Hair Dyes

There is a hair color range for every need, so here’s a simple breakdown of the differences!

  • Permanent hair dye: Penetrates the hair shaft for long-lasting color but requires commitment.
  • Demi-permanent hair dye: Lasts longer than semi-permanent but still fades over time. It’s ideal for subtle color changes.
  • Semi-permanent hair dye: Ideal for temporary transformations, adding vibrancy without altering the hair’s natural structure.

How to Use Nutri Color Filters

There are so many creative ways to use Nutri Color Filters but here are a few pro tips on how to use these stunning colors! Don’t forget that for the best in-salon creative outcomes, you should always have a consultation.

Refreshing Faded Color

Nutri Color Filters™ are ideal for breathing new life into dull or faded hair color. Whether used to revive existing tones or add a fresh pop of color, they’re perfect for enhancing hair’s brilliance between salon appointments, allowing your clients maintain their stunning look with minimal effort.

Adding Dimension

Experiment with highlights, lowlights, or Balayage effects using Nutri Color Filters. Layer complementary or contrasting shades to create a more multi-dimensional look.

Fashion-Forward Colors

For clients who love to stand out, bold shades like 097 Turquoise, or 300 Yellow are excellent choices. These colors are ideal for festivals, photoshoots, or just making a statement.

Client Education: Maintaining Semi-Permanent Color

To maintain vibrant color and healthy hair at home, we recommend using color-safe products like EKSPERIENCE™ Color Protection Color Intensifying Hair Cleanser, which is sulfate-free and designed to extend the life of your color. Additionally, always apply a heat protection product, such as RE/START Balayage Hair Care Cream, to prevent early fading and shield the hair from damage caused by heat styling tools. These simple steps will help clients preserve their color and keep their hair looking its best.

Lifestyle Considerations

To keep hair color vibrant for longer, it’s important to limit exposure to sunlight and chlorine, both of which can cause color to fade more quickly. Protect your clients’ investment by recommending Equave ™ leave-in conditioner for colored hair, which helps shield and nourish strands. For easy at-home touch-ups, suggest Nutri Color Filters to refresh their look and maintain that salon-fresh vibrancy between appointments.

Tips for Success with Semi-Permanent Hair Dye

  • Ensure even saturation for consistent color results.
  • Blend shades for a custom, professional finish.
  • For uneven fading, reapply Nutri Color™ Filters to balance the tone.
  • Adjust application techniques for different hair textures to get optimal coverage.
  • Pay attention to timings. Apply for 3 minutes for color refresh or 15 minutes for fashion/intense colors on prelightened or bleached hair.
