Colorists looking for a gentler, ammonia-free option for glossing, toning, root blending, or refreshing faded permanent color — well suited to clients who want tone-on-tone results, or to damaged/porous hair that needs a break from lifting formulas. Not a replacement for permanent color when significant lightening or heavy gray coverage is the goal.

For clients between permanent color appointments, or anyone whose hair needs a break from ammonia and lifting, Color Sync deposits rich, even tone while actively conditioning — a useful bridge service that keeps color looking fresh without the commitment or damage risk of another permanent application.

• Mixing Ratio: 1:1 Color Sync + 10 Volume Matrix Cream Developer
• Application: dry or towel-dried hair, sectioned for even saturation
• Processing Time: up to 20 minutes at room temperature
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with a color-safe conditioner

Pros:

• Ammonia-free and gentler than permanent color
• Cera-Oil Priming Complex with 2x ceramides adds shine and smooths the cuticle while depositing color
• Short processing time (up to 20 minutes) fits well into a gloss or toning service

Cons:

• Doesn't lift hair, so it won't lighten or provide the same gray coverage as a permanent formula on very resistant gray
• Color fades gradually (demi-permanent), so it's a refresh/maintenance option rather than a long-term fix
