VITAL SHINE HAIR COLOR CREAM - FAQ
Results may be the goal, but how we get there is what pave's the way for our hair color. More then a pigment deposit (which we excel at), we strive in positioning our permanent hair color by combinining coverage, controlled application, shine, and cosmetic fiber support in one professional cream system. By blending permanent color chemistry with proteins, amino acids, botanical extracts, humectants, antioxidants, and conditioning agents, Mevys offers a rewarding color service supportive to the hair fiber, without compromising hair plasticity.
The scientific approach behind the color cream
- MEVYS Vital Shine Color Cream combines permanent oxidative color technology with a care-focused conditioning system, meaning it does more than simply deposit pigment. Its alkaline pH range helps open the cuticle so oxidative dye precursors can develop color inside the hair fiber, supporting strong pigment intensity and gray coverage. At the same time, the formula includes hydrolyzed keratin, wheat, soy, silk amino acids, fatty alcohols, oleic components, synthetic beeswax, humectants, antioxidants, and botanical extracts that help improve softness, slip, shine, and the cosmetic feel of the hair during and after coloring. Our color pairs professional permanent color chemistry with conditioning and fiber-support ingredients, delivering color performance while helping the hair feel smoother, more manageable, and visibly cared for.
Gray hair is usually harder to color because it has less natural pigment, can be more resistant, and often has a tighter or more compact cuticle. Our permanent hair color cream is built for this type of service because it uses oxidation. The color molecules formulated in Mevys Color Tube's start small, allowing them to enter the hair fiber, then develop into larger color molecules that stay trapped inside the hair. This gives our permanent color better coverage and durability compared with temporary or direct dyes.
- Note: MEVYS Hair Color Cream is designed for full gray coverage, however, full gray coverage is not automatic. A stylist still needs to choose the correct shade family, developer volume, mixing ratio, processing time, and saturation level. For example, resistant gray hair often needs natural or neutral shades in the formula to create a solid base, while undertones alone may appear too translucent. The product also needs to be applied generously and evenly, especially around the hairline, temples, and crown, where gray hair is often more resistant.
MEVYS Vital Shine Color Cream is formulated without typical cosmetic silicones found in other commercial dyes, making it a low build-up color cream when used and rinsed properly by a professional stylist. Instead of relying on heavy silicone coating, Mevys Hair Color Cream uses conditioning agents, proteins, amino acids, and emollients to help the hair feel smoother, softer, and more manageable after coloring.
The untold truth behind hair color cream products
- Many silicones are used in hair color tube's to create instant smoothness and shine, but they can sometimes leave a cosmetic film if used repeatedly, leaving hair damp and rigid. Mevys Hair Color Cream provides a more concise, nourishing and lasting effect for color-treated hair to avoid dryness associated with coloring services.
MEVYS Hair Color Cream is formulated to limit and counter breakage during color services, The ingredients within Mevys Vital Shine Hair Color support hair cosmetically; reducing damage that may occur during color appliances.
MEVYS Hair Color Cream is not prohibited on bleached hair, but it should be used only by professional cosmetolgist.
- Note: Like any permanent dye, permanent color works in an alkaline environment, so it should be applied only after a stylist evaluates the hair’s strength, porosity, elasticity, and chemical history. The formula includes proteins, amino acids, and conditioning agents to help support a smoother cosmetic finish, but healthy application technique is still the key to protecting the hair. Breakage is usually the result of the hair’s condition, developer choice, processing time, overlapping color on previously processed lengths, or combining too many chemical services—usually indifferent of the color cream applied.
- On bleached hair, the stylist must assess porosity, elasticity, resistance, level of lightening, residual color, and desired color. In many cases, a lower volume of developer, shorter processing time, a gentler formula, pre-pigmentation, or, under harsh hair conditions, consider choosing a toner/demi-permanent color instead of a permanent dye.
MEVYS Hair Color Cream is designed as a permanent professional hair color, so it is not limited to 24 washes. When used correctly by a stylist and maintained with color-safe aftercare, the color can remain visible and long-lasting beyond 24 washes.
- Note: Mevys Hair Color Cream provides long-lasting permanent color with rich coverage and gradual fade resistance, however vibrancy and tone may gradually soften over time depending on hair condition, shampoo routine, water temperature, and aftercare products.
Yes, MEVYS Hair Color Cream has a professional cream consistency designed for controlled application. Its thick, pearlescent texture helps stylists apply the color evenly and precisely without excessive dripping, making it suitable for root touch-ups, gray coverage, and full-color services. For best results, it should be mixed and applied by a professional using the correct developer ratio, since over-dilution can make any color cream less controlled.
Melanin Matters: Color Designed for Real Coverage
Understanding your client’s natural pigment helps determine which hair dye fits your clientele and as a result, hair color performance begins with melanin—the natural pigment that gives hair its depth, warmth, and resistance during a color service. MEVYS Vital Shine Color Cream precedes a mediterranean approach, well-suited for markets with naturally deeper brunette, dark blonde, and gray-resistant hair, where eumelanin-rich fibers often require stronger pigment saturation, reliable gray coverage, and controlled warmth management. Its professional color system and technology are designed to help develop permanent color inside the hair fiber, making it a strong option for salons serving clients who want rich browns, dimensional brunettes, natural-looking coverage, and polished gray blending.
Gray Percentage Guide: Identify Your Color Needs.
0%–30% Gray Hair
For low gray percentages, the goal is to maintain the desired cosmetic tone while adding enough pigment support for soft, even coverage.
31%–70% Gray Hair
For medium gray percentages, the hair has a greater loss of melanin, so the formula needs a stronger balance between the applied tone and a coverage-supporting shade.
71%–100% Gray Hair
For high gray percentages, coverage must become the priority because most of the hair no longer contains natural pigment. The formula should be built to replace missing depth first, then refine the final reflect.
