Redken Shades EQ Color Gloss Hair Color


  • Shades EQ is mixed in a 1:1 ratio of Color Gloss to Shades EQ Processing Solution.

  • Example: Mix 2 oz. (60 ml) 06AA Bonfire Shades EQ+ 2 oz. (60 ml) Shades EQ Processing Solution.

  • Always mix in equal parts and use immediately.

  • Standard processing time is 20 minutes at room temperature and is recommended for best penetration and durability. 

  • For more vibrant results, process 15 minutes with plastic cap under a pre-heated warm dryer. Remove cap and cool for 5 minutes.

  • To achieve lighter color deposits, use diluted formulas, not reduced processing time.
