For licensed colorists working with clients who have less than 50% gray hair and want natural or fashion-forward permanent color with minimal formulating — ideal for color refreshes, all-over color, and root-to-tip services where consistency matters. Requires professional mixing with developer; not intended for home use.

For stylists who want predictable, root-to-tip color in one formula rather than blending multiple products, SoColor Pre-Bonded removes a step: bond protection and pigment-neutralizing background are already built in. That means less time mixing and more consistent results chair-to-chair, with visible conditioning benefits between color services.

• Mixing Ratio: 1:1 SoColor Blended Collection + Matrix Cream Developer
• Application: clean, dry hair
• Processing Time: 30–45 minutes at room temperature — process the full 45 minutes when lifting more than 1 level or depositing on gray
• Strand test recommended before full application
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with a color-safe shampoo and conditioner

Pros:

• Bond-Protecting Concentrate helps maintain hair integrity through repeated color services
• Pre-blended formula neutralizes underlying pigment without extra mixing steps
• Cera-Oil Conditioning Complex conditions for up to 30 shampoos

Cons:

• Formulated for <50% gray — clients with more gray should use SoColor Extra Coverage instead
• Like any oxidative permanent color, requires a patch test and professional mixing/application
