Price: $8.95

One of the problems when coloring blonde hair is how to keep the yellow base color in the hair. Because hair color molecules are too large, only 30% of the hair color is penetrated into the hair. That means 70% of the hair color is lost down the drain. This is one reason why color fades and oxidizes so quickly.

Besides fading, another coloring concern is the harsh, brassy tones that result from coloring with hi-lift tints.

Color Solutions
Lock-in Blonde can be used as a gold base filler and a hair-tone corrector to help insure color consistency; as an additive to warm-up fading blondes; as a neutralizer to brassy tones.

It is compatible with any other hair color or hair coloring additive, and performs well with any level of hair without changing the hair color.

Lock-in Blonde has been formulated with smaller organic color molecules, wetting agents, and chelating stabilizers to help increase color penetration so that up to 90% of the color will be "locked-in" the cortex of the hair.

Lock-in Blonde does not change the hair color, but rather allows the color to develop to its maximum potency by acting as a gold base filler and hair-tone corrector to insure color consistency.

Other unique attributes of Lock-in Blondes are:

1. It contains polysorbates as those found in conditioners to help soothe the scalp and prevent irritation and sensitivity.
2. It also contains propylene glycol which is also found in conditioners to help retain moisture.

Lock-in Blonde can be used on all hennas, water base, non-peroxide, semi-permanent colors, powder bleaches, oil bleaches, lighteners and with any volume peroxides.

When should Lock-in Blonde be used?
Lock-in Blonde is used on blonde hair with brassy tones that want more of an ash base yellow.

Will Lock-in Blonde speed up or slow down processing?
Neither. Lock-in Blonde is just added to the formula. There is no extra processing time.
