Neutralizer knowledge

What are Neutralizers, and how do they work?

Neutralizers are pigments added to your hair care products to help counteract unwanted tones. You’ll notice that green and red are opposite each other on the color wheel. This means that when combined, they cancel each other out. For example, if you’re a brunette trying to reduce red tones, you’d select a green neutralizing pigment.

Color Wheel

Think red, orange, and golden tones in your natural or dyed hair color. Warm tones result from overprocessing hair, showering in hard water, exposure to the sun and chlorine, and hair color fading over time.

Shampoos cleanse and remove impurities, while Conditioners and Masques nourish, leaving hair shiny and healthy. Adding a neutralizing pigment to your Conditioner and Masque allows your clean hair follicles to open and take in the most pigment and nourishment before snapping shut. The result? Healthier-looking, shiny hair, and the perfect tone.

Neutralizing Shampoos: Cleanse and remove impurities

Neutralizing Conditioners and Masques: Deposit pigment to your freshly cleaned hair without washing it out

Depending on your level of brassiness, we recommend using your Masque every other wash or bi-weekly for about 10 minutes, and using your Conditioner to help maintain as often as you like for 3-4 minutes. The steps:

  1. Cleanse

  2. Condition and let it set

  3. Rinse and say goodbye to brass
