For grey hair, the 2-step Base+Colour method is ideal. The Base pre-pigments grey hair to better absorb copper pigment.

Result by your starting base
A red result depends heavily on your starting colour: pigments deposit by transparency, they do not lighten.
| Your base | Expected result |
|---|---|
| Blonde to light brown | Bright, very visible copper |
| Medium brown | Warm auburn reflects |
| Dark brown | Discreet red reflects in the light |
| Grey/white hair | Clear copper — leave on longer to intensify |
Frequently asked questions
Does plant-based red fade oddly over time?
No: it lightens gradually while keeping its warm tone, with no root line, because the pigment coats the fibre instead of oxidising it.
Can I get vivid red on dark hair?
On a dark base, red stays a reflect seen mainly in the light. For a stronger copper, the two-step Base+Colour method prepares the fibre to hold pigment better.
Does red cover grey hair?
Yes, it is one of the most luminous shades on grey hair. A longer processing time gives a more intense copper.
