Insider Scoop

Matrix resets and reinvents the ammonia-free, permanent color category.

March/April 2013

You may have been disillusioned with other ammonia-free lines that made big ripples in our industry only to sink like stones, but not this time.

COLORINSIDER by Matrix sets a new standard for ammonia-free formulations, as well as infinite new possibilities for salon color services.

Odorfree and capable of three full levels of lift and 100% gray coverage, this new permanent haircolor maximizes highdefi nition color results with minimum stress to the hair’s cuticle layer.

Featuring a precise, calibrated palette of 52 shades plus Clear and 16 tonal families—including cool neutrals and rich, vibrant reds—COLORINSIDER is formulated with Matrix’s proprietary Color Injection Oil Delivery System (OD2), which uses oil—as opposed to ammonia—to deposit color deep within the cortex.

What’s the difference between the two processes? Ammonia-based, permanent haircolor swells the hair fiber and raises the cuticle layer to allow color molecules to penetrate the hair shaft.

In stark contrast, Matrix’s new OD2 system bypasses the cuticle and injects color molecules directly into the cortex.

The results are always true, sharp and saturated.

1. The 10-, 20-, 30-volume COLORINSIDER Oil-Cream Developers are mixed 1:1 and provide up to three full levels of lift.

2. Custom-created for COLORINSIDER, the precision-calibrated line includes a beautiful collection of cool neutrals and a dazzling array of rich, lively reds.

Added Perks! COLORINSIDER is odorless and fume-free, and features a 35-minute processing time.

"COLORINSIDER is intuitive for stylists.
It’s deep and rich where needed;
light and multi-reflective where expected.

Reds are vibrant and wearable; grey coverage is 100% with a perfect balance between base and tone."
