The dependency on permanent hair color is like our national
dependence on oil. It’s got to change! ;)
I'm determined to be one of those hair stylists who posts as
many articles as I can on cellophane
hair products. It's an unsung hero, as it doesn’t get the attention it
deserves. Cellophane is a semi-permanent hair glaze that adds shine and
color tones to hair. It contains no ammonia or peroxide and is applied on
clean, towel-dried hair. It adheres to the hair with the addition of heat.
FYI…without heat, it will not hold.
Here are some FAQs on cellophanes…
What is a cellophane (i.e.
color shines)?
This is a vegetable-based color dye, created by the famed salon,
Sebastian over 17 years ago.
What is the purpose
getting it done?
It gives great shine while adding a semi-permanent color that
lasts up to 8-12 shampoos.
Does it contain
ammonia or peroxide?
No it does not. It's a vegetable-based color that holds to the
hair with the application of 20 minutes of heat.
Can it lift your
natural hair color to make it lighter?
Because there's no ammonia or peroxide, it cannot lift your
natural hair color.
Does it cover gray?
No. Because lacks ammonia or peroxide, it cannot cover gray.
However, if you only have a few grays hairs and your hair texture is not too
thick or coarse, some of the darker colors may stain them.
Is it good on highlighted
hair?
It's great for highlighted hair! If you are a beige-blond and
you're looking for a little pop of golden tone and shine, this is perfect for
you. Also if you're a beige-blond and need to get rid of unwanted golden tones,
the Pearl color with Clear is a great combination.
Does it protect or
hurt hair?
It provides protection from sun, salt, chlorine, and product
build-up.
Is it good for brunettes?
Amazing for brunettes!! The colors are rich and the sun picks up
on the tones beautifully!
Can it be done on top
of permanent color?
Yes. There are many shades of cellophanes that can be applied on
top of your permanent hair color to help prevent fading. Finding the right tone
to compliment your hair color is important. If you're a cool brunette and hate
warmth, don’t choose a warm cellophane color.

A year ago a beautician in LA used cellophane on my gray hair. I loved it. She used 2 colors and gave me the numbers. I can't find anyone in Miami who can replicate. What's your opinion on using 2 colors?
I tried doing it at home but didn't do a good job (of course). Mostly the lighter color (on top) came out too blonde. Should I mix the colors? My profile photo shows how it looked a year ago.?
