For professional colorists providing an in-salon permanent color service to clients seeking full gray coverage or several levels of lift within a shorter appointment time.

This is a developer-mixed professional color, not an at-home color kit.

For a salon booked tightly on appointment time, a color line engineered to roughly halve standard processing time while still reaching full gray coverage can meaningfully speed up a color service without asking a colorist to guess at a shortened timing on a product not built for it.

The non-progressive formulation also gives a colorist more margin on timing than a standard permanent color would.

Mixed and applied only by a professional colorist as part of an in-salon color service, following Framesi's official technical instructions for the correct activator strength for the shade and result being used.

• Mix Framcolor 2001 Intense color cream with Framesi Professional Activator at a 1:2 ratio (one part color cream to two parts activator), per Framesi's official technical guidance
• Apply to sectioned hair following standard permanent color procedure
• Process for roughly half the time normally used for a standard permanent color on that client — for example, a base that would normally need about 40 minutes with a standard color typically needs around 20 minutes with this formula — but confirm exact timing against Framesi's official technical manual, since it varies with hair porosity, gray resistance, and desired result

Pros

• Processes in roughly half the time of a standard permanent color, per the brand's Fast Pigmentation Process technology
• Delivers full white/gray hair coverage
• Non-progressive formula gives some margin for error if processing runs a little long

Cons

• Requires professional mixing with the correct Framesi activator and is not suited to home application
• Reduced-ammonia formula is not the same as ammonia-free, so standard salon color-service precautions still apply
