Detailed description

Shinefinity by Wella Professionals is a demi-permanent hair colorant characterized by its innovative zero-lift, zero-damage formula. It was developed to meet the growing demand for gentle, long-lasting color solutions that benefit both salon professionals and clients. The product line is part of Wella's Coloration category and offers a wide range of shades divided into warm, cool, natural, and booster categories.

Why is Shinefinity so good?

Shinefinity is especially suitable for clients who want to enhance their natural hair color or gently cover gray hair without compromising hair health. It's ideal for those with damaged or porous hair, as it delivers long-lasting, true color results for up to 6 weeks, even on difficult hair types. The balanced pH technology ensures that the hair structure is protected while maintaining a healthy shine and silky texture.

The formula is free from harmful ingredients such as silicones, alcohols, ammonia, direct dyes, and parabens, making it a clean beauty option that meets the growing demands of eco-conscious clients. The drip-free gel-cream consistency facilitates application and ensures even color distribution, making work more efficient for salon professionals.

Advantages in detail

The benefits of Shinefinity are comprehensive and include:

  • Zero Lift, Zero Damage : Unlike traditional hair colors that can lighten natural hair color and cause damage, Shinefinity provides color without altering the base and protects hair integrity.
  • Long-lasting color : The color lasts up to 6 weeks, as confirmed by instrumental tests with standardized application on pre-lightened hair at level 6. This is especially beneficial for clients with porous hair, as the color remains consistent.
  • Balanced pH Technology : This technology regulates the pH level during the coloring process, starting with a mildly alkaline pH to open the cuticle and ending with an acidic pH to close it and prevent damage. This results in a healthy shine and a silky texture, with up to 250% more shine and 50% smoother, softer hair compared to pre-lightened hair.
  • Clean Formula : The absence of silicones, alcohols, ammonia, direct dyes, and parabens makes Shinefinity a safe choice for ingredient-conscious customers and supports Wella's clean beauty philosophy.
  • Non-drip gel cream : The consistency makes it easier to apply, stays in place and reduces waste, increasing efficiency in the salon.

Application and procedure

The application of Shinefinity is optimized for salon professionals and follows a clear process:

  • Preparation : The hair should be washed and towel-dried to ensure optimal adhesion of the color.
  • Mixing : Mix the desired color with the Shinefinity activator in a 1:1 ratio. There are two activators: the bottle activator for basin applications and the bowl and brush activator for precise techniques such as melts, depending on the desired application.
  • Application technique : Apply the mixture evenly from roots to tips, using either the applicator bottle or a brush. For more intense results, the mixture can be applied to dry hair or processed with heat, which is especially helpful for covering the first gray hairs or intensifying red tones.
  • Processing time : Leave the product on for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the desired intensity. Longer processing times result in deeper, more vibrant colors. With heat, the processing time can be reduced to 15 minutes for more intense results, with no cooling time.
  • Rinse and Condition : Rinse hair thoroughly with water until the water runs clear. Due to the acidic pH levels at the end of the process, no after-treatment is necessary, but salon professionals may apply additional conditioning to further condition the hair, especially on hair that has been processed multiple times with COLORMOTION+.

Areas of application

Shinefinity is versatile and covers a variety of needs:

  • Natural Color Enhancement : Ideal for clients who want to subtly enhance or deepen their natural hair color without drastic changes.
  • Refreshing color-treated hair : Clients with previously colored hair can use Shinefinity to maintain color vibrancy between full color services and add extra shine.
  • Gentle coverage of gray hair : Particularly suitable for the first signs of gray hair, it offers a natural blend that does not look artificial.
  • Color refreshes and corrections : Can be used for color refreshes between color services or to correct color imperfections, especially after lightening and bleaching services.
  • Low-maintenance solution : Perfect for clients who want to visit the salon less often, as the color is long-lasting and requires minimal maintenance.

Recommendations and tips

For optimal results, salon professionals should follow these recommendations:

  • Only use Shinefinity activators, as other developers, such as those from Color Touch, may compromise color results due to a lack of balanced pH technology.
  • For hair that has been processed multiple times, we recommend using COLORMOTION+ for additional care to strengthen the hair structure.
  • After use, clients should use color-protecting shampoos and conditioners from Wella's Color Motion range to maintain color and shine. For environmentally conscious clients, the Elements range, which emphasizes natural ingredients, is a great choice.
  • Regular trims and avoiding chlorinated water, such as by wearing a swim cap, help protect the color. Deep conditioning treatments can maintain the hair's moisture balance and make it look shiny and healthy.
