These products have been modernized over time and have since developed into a more improved hair color product that offers many different shades. Today, Redken pairs up two of these liquid favorites, Redken Shades EQ Gloss and Color Gels to ensure perfect color results from root to tip.<\/p>\n<p>Redken Shades EQ Gloss\u00a0is a zero ammonia, acidic, demi-permanent hair color that is a mix of direct dyes and 100 percent oxidative dyes. The Shades EQ Gloss can be used to glaze, correct, refresh and blend gray. Shades EQ Gloss is available in\u00a068 shades, including clear.<\/p>\n<p>Redken Color Gels are permanent conditioning hair color that contain wheat protein and avocado oil for strength and conditioning during permanent hair color services. These Color Gels are offered in 58 shades, including clear, with two shades referred to as \u201cFashion Gels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRedken Color Gels create rich, saturated results with exceptional gray coverage,\u201d says Redken Artist Jaclyn Harwood. \u201cThere are [also] five Color Gels families that can be used alone to provide superior gray coverage in a variety of tonal reflects.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b>\u201cRedken Color Gels create rich, saturated results with exceptional gray coverage.\u201d<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To further protect hair integrity, use permanent color like Color Gels on Zone 1 and refresh with Shades EQ Gloss on Zones 2 and 3 to maximize the color results and minimize stress on hair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRedken uses the term \u2018Zones\u2019 to refer to different areas of the hair strand,\u201d Harwood says.\u00a0 \u201cUnderstanding Zones will help to achieve phenomenal, even-colored results every time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zone 1 refers to the regrowth or root area, which is closest to the scalp and less than 3 months old. Zone 2 is the mid-shaft area of the hair strand and begins where Zone 1 ends. In healthy hair, Zone 2 can extend all the way through the ends of the hair strand\u2014including hair that has been altered with chemicals and previously exposed to brushing, combing and heat styling tools. Zone 3 represents the overly porous hair that extends past the shoulders in length. \u201cNot all hair has a Zone 3,\u201d Hardwood mentions.<\/p>\n<p>The Redken hair color portfolio offers every colorist a range of tools to achieve multiple looks by using a Color Mantra. The Redken Color Mantra supplies a guideline to create good hair color results while maintaining the integrity of the hair.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4513\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/redkencolorgels-300x275.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/redkencolorgels-300x275.png 300w, https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/redkencolorgels.png 318w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><i>For more information visit <\/i><a href=\"http:\/\/www.redken.com\"><i>www.redken.com<\/i><\/a><i>.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Redken Shades EQ Gloss and Color Gels Two liquid colors team up for perfect hair color from root to tip By Precious Walker In 1983, Redken launched Shades EQ, which was its first Equalizing Color&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4514,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,11],"tags":[106,77,66,76,71,99,123,68,70,122,64,89,67,95,62,72,100,124,45],"class_list":{"0":"post-4512","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hair","8":"category-products","9":"tag-africa","10":"tag-atlanta","11":"tag-au-naturale","12":"tag-beauty-industry","13":"tag-beauty-magazine","14":"tag-beauty-trade-show","15":"tag-colorgels","16":"tag-hair","17":"tag-hair-products","18":"tag-haircolor","19":"tag-how-to","20":"tag-milan","21":"tag-natural-hair","22":"tag-paris","23":"tag-products","24":"tag-professional-beauty-industry","25":"tag-redken","26":"tag-redken-color","27":"tag-tbc-beauty-campaign"},"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4512"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4512\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4516,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4512\/revisions\/4516"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4514"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beautyconsultantmagazine.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
