Wella Illumina Color ME+ 60ml - 8/93 light blonde cendré gold

Wella sets a new standard with Illuminage in terms of future hair colouring techniques. Illuminage moves away from bold balayage techniques with harsh colour transitions. For balayage colourings at tone level 8 and above, the trend now leans towards natural looks with particularly soft transitions. Wella addresses this trend with Illumina Color Me+ and introduces four blonde shades used for multi-tone colouring techniques. With 10/81 (light-blonde pearl ash), 8-93 (light-blonde cendré gold), 9/19 (light-blonde ash cendré), and 9.59 (light-blonde mahogany cendré), Wella covers both warm and cool tones for particularly natural results. Lightening and toning with Illumina Color ME+ for translucent, shimmering hair colour The four permanent hair colours are the first from the Illumina range to feature the Me+ molecule. This significantly reduces the likelihood of developing an allergy to hair colour. As usual, the premium hair colour provides lightening and translucent results through copper blocking via Microlight technology. This protects the hair surface, allowing light to effortlessly penetrate the hair and enhance the embedded colour pigments with irresistible shine. Application recommendations for Wella Illumina Color ME+ Mix in a 1:1 ratio with Welloxon Perfect. Apply to dry hair. The processing time depends on the oxidising agent strength and the desired colour result. The 4 ME+ shades can be mixed with all other Illumina colours, including Opal Essence shades. However, the advantage of ME+ is then lost. Results with Wella Illumina Color ME+ Uniquely radiant hair colour Intense shine Soft transition with balayage techniques Natural look Lightening

Wella Illumina Color Opal Essence

Opal Essence by Illumina Color creates a delicate metallic shine with warm and cool reflections. The new shades from Wella have no tone depth; they are pure colours layered over the base hair colour in the respective nuance. Four metallic shades (Titanium Rose, Copper Peach, Silver Mauve and Platinum Lily) enhance the base hair colour with unique reflections and shimmer. The lighter the hair, the more intense the result. The shades gently brighten natural and coloured hair. Depending on the curvature of the hair, the reflections change. This means that the hair colour shimmers differently with each movement and depending on the light, making cold and warm reflections visible in the hair. Opal Essence is best showcased from a tone depth of 6 or higher. Naturally, it can also be mixed with the entire Illumina Color range to create a tone depth. This opens up an even greater variety of colours – creativity knows no bounds with Opal Essence. Since Opal Essence has no tone depth, it is not suitable for grey coverage. When combined with a classic Illumina Color, grey hair is covered. Uneven colour results cannot therefore be corrected. The benefits of Opal Essence at a glance: Subtle results that change with the light Metallic hue of colour overlays the base hair colour Cool and warm reflections as well as metallic shimmer Enhancement and subtle nuance of the base hair colour Lightening effect Colourfast washout Lasts through multiple washes Mixable with classic Illumina Color for tone depth Application recommendation for Wella Illumina Color Opal Essence Pure application of Opal Essence: mixing ratio 1:1 with Welloxon Perfect developer Opal Essence in combination with traditional Illumina Color shades: 1 part Illumina Color + 1-3 parts Opal Essence + 1 part Welloxon Perfect The most intense results are achieved with 1.9% and 4% developers and from tone level 6 and higher. Processing time depends on the oxidising agent strength and the desired colour result.

What is Wella Illumina?

Wella Illumina Color is a permanent hair color by Wella Professionals that delivers exceptional shine. There are around 40 intermixable shades that can be used in a variety of ways:

  • To lighten the natural hair tone
  • To darken the natural hair tone
  • To intensify or enhance the natural hair tone

The hair color offers up to 100% gray coverage and up to 3 levels of lift. The Microlight Technology ensures that the color develops in the best possible way while protecting the cuticle layer during the coloring process.

Light-reflecting Illumina hair color

Since its launch 20 years ago, Wella Illumina has become one of the most popular hair colors worldwide. It stands for natural-looking colorations with extraordinary light reflection. After coloring, the hair radiates and shines because the light is amplified at its highest spectrum yet the result remains very natural.

Wella Professionals Illumina: What applications are possible?

Illumina Color is a permanent professional hair color by Wella that provides intense shine. It is suitable for all common techniques and can also be used for special coloring services, such as Crystal Gloss or Grey Shading, as add-on treatments. The Microlight Technology ensures that the coloring process is gentle on the hair, as the cuticle layer is protected during the processing time.

With Crystal Gloss, you can add superior shine (transparent or with a hint of color) between two colorings as a refresher. This is ideal after highlights or a painting service. With Grey Shading, gray hair is refined—making this technique especially suitable for male clients. Tip: Adding heat shortens the processing time.

What is the difference between Koleston and Illumina?

Unlike Koleston, Wella Illumina Color is not based on a brown base but on a violet-ash base. Anyone who desires a unique, natural-looking color result with long-lasting hold and youthful-looking hair will find Illumina the perfect choice.
