What is the difference between Goldwell Permanent Hair Color and Goldwell Elumen Hair Color?

I think the permanent is meant to perform like NORMAL permanent hair colour, whilst the range with pinks and purples and so forth, whereas they are THE BEST of this kind, they do fade. However if you use the clear colour setting product OVER them, they last very well.I hope this is helpful.

Elumen is supposed to be permanent but in my experience it's more like a demi-permanent. It has no peroxide or ammonia so it doesn't damage your hair like regular hair color.

Elumen is an Ionic dye that does not have ammonia and works very differently. It is not gong to lift as it has no developer and does not really cover gray very well. It is the brightest, shiniest and most long-lasting of the creative colors..by FAR. You put it directly on hair, process under heat for 45 min, the wash out, towel dry and use the "lock" product for five minutes and wash out. It will stain anything and everything and will actually etch the wrong kind of plastic, if used. Best left to a professional

Mine was a tan color one. Wonder if the difference in color just has to do with a new production run.

I liked the green one the best for color but it's not always easy to find. It's been my favorite so far and I like that it has SPF already in it. I usually pick an ivory-type shade of foundation and found that this one is the closest. The next best would be the "gold" skin79 that is easier to find. But green is my favorite.

I think that the Goldwell Dual Senses works great on any type of hair coloring. Try it and let me know! It is definitely the very best shampoo and conditioner I've ever used.

I have ordered both the smaller and larger sizes. The one you choose is what you will receive. My stylist said that there is really no difference between the color pro amd the other. They do the same thing. Hope that helps!

No - elumen isnt meant to cover gray. You'd have to cover your roots first with a permanent color then apply elumen all over. Just know that elumen is best on clean, dry hair. So do your roots then apply elumen possibly following day/night. I've used elumen for almost ten years now. If you follow the entire process with lock and wash, it's a fantastic line. It's a direct dye. Good luck!

This is a natural product and is different than chemical permanent/semi-permanent color. There is a permanent hair color change (like with all henna products) but that changed color can change over time.

No, it does not contain PPD so I did not have a reaction. However, the color did not last through more than 1 shampoo. My hairstylist instead foiled the top part of my head since that is where my grey hair is most noticeable. I have heard there is a Goldwell color that is permanent and does not cause an allergic reaction but is only available through salons. Good luck! Since I developed an allergy to hair dye, it has been a nightmare trying to find anything that works to cover my grey.

Whenever I've purchased Natural Match hair color, I've always gotten the "w" variety, which stands for "warm" and means the color will have reddish/golden highlights. (My natural hair color used to be dark brown with lots of red/gold/auburn, so I need the warmer highlights.) The "c" stands for "cool" and is for ash-tone coloring, which I don't use. If it says "w" after the number, I would not buy it until you've contacted the seller directly to determine if the picture is different from the actual product you will receive. You definitely will want the seller to confirm if the product box says 6C and NOT 6W. Otherwise, the highlights and undertone will not be the correct shade for you.

They're both good. The dark bronzer has dha and this one does not. The dark will get you darker but this one has a more natural bronze color that is a beautiful natural tan color that I prefer. It can also be used outdoors. The dark tends to streak and doesn't smell as good either. I definitely prefer this one!

Apparently they are the same, when I ordered "Simply Silver" they shipped" Platinum Pro" and as far as I can tell my hair looks just as good as it did with "Simply Silver."

They all provide plenty of shine. The difference is that one is more coarse, one is fine, and one leaves a protective coating on the silver to delay tarnish. Go to their website and check it out. I agree with Phoebe about Tarn-X, she describes it aptly. I prefer the Hagerty's with the silver label. It's the same as in the blue jar but protects longer.

These products are different. Unfortunately Nexxus no longer makes Simply Silver. Platinum Pro leaves your hair with a purple tint. Simply Silver lived up to it's name. It left your hair simply silver.

Go to the Proraso website. They explain the characteristics of the different color products.

I believe that it is permanent. It doesn't say specifically on the outside of the box but there is a warning that permanent hair color may irritate the skin.

Your hair was probably bleached before applying the VV. You probably need a professional service, witch involves repigmentation and then applying the black color. Or applying straight black semipermanent color. Obviously your hair coloring history involved a lot of abuse, meaning a high degree of porosity. It is not the Elumen that doesn't allow your hair to take permanent black color, it is the condition of your hair.

That a tough one I know my hair color is 27 with a mixture of lighter blonde, I know this from when I buy my human hair from this oriental lady who does my one pieces at Silky hair supply in Hillsborough County. She is an expert and when I look on the internet, I can tell light golden blonde is always 27. You need to find your color number first. Check it with a pro first or a good hair supply store with good customer service...Thanks PAM
