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

The gold ultra restoring capsules are more for anti aging....the daily youth restoring serum is more for normal/general usage. The gold ultra restoring capsules are usually more expensive. I am a lady in my 50's....I have used both....personally I don't see much difference in the two but love what either capsule does for my skin...I use the daily youth restoring serum capsules.

Most of the colors are simply scent differences. However, the blonde-medium is a lighter spray for lighter hair, the brunette has a darker tone and the red supposedly has a reddish tint so that the spray doesn't effect your hair color. Honestly, I have red hair and the regular batiste dry shampoos don't seem to effect my color much. Theose who have darker hair probably would benefit from the brunette version though.

It has a gold cap with pinkish hue liquid. I have to use a lot to achieve a scent unlike the one I purchased in the store. The scent doesnt seem to last as long either.

eSalon is amazing. If you let them know what you want and/or respond to the questions about your hairtype, length, etc., they will probably be able to help. I will never go to a salon for color again. The shine, texture and color intensity have resulted in many, many compliments on my hair. Good luck! eSalon will be very responsive, I'm sure. Go to the web site and start there. A personal stylist will develop what you need.

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.

they are the same , only the color is different. not sure why the difference in price. I bought mine at menards for $9.99 on clearance and they had all the colors for the same price.

I had the same thing happen to me. Your salon person used women's color, which has a much more golden hue to it (and you end up looking like a golden Teddy Bear, which is NOT a natural look for men!). This product will tone down the golden colors by hiding them a bit. You may end up a shade darker than you are already, so be careful. Bottom line whats in your hair now is probably a permanent dye, so you'll have to wait for it to grow out, but the color camo is a good way to hide the "demarcation line" that you'll see as your bad dye job grows out.

Blond or taupe, though you need a light touch for either. You can see/test them at Sephora.

Dear M. Thaler, Yes, eSalon does customize hair color by formulating each individual order according to your personal hair details, including gray percentage, coloring history, and more. While we think we can duplicate the base color for the discontinued L'Oreal Coleur Experte 7.3, we are unable to duplicate the harmonizing highlights found in that kit since we do not currently offer a highlighting kit. You may use our color as a base, then have highlights applied 1 to 2 days later after the eSalon base color has settled in. In order to make your transition to eSalon easier and provide the best outcome, we recommend completing an online consultation and placing an order. Our Colorist will then review the details of your order and formulate your color. If for any reason you're not head over heels with your color, just let us know and we'll make you a new one or give you your money back, per our Satisfaction Guarantee. We hope to craft a custom blended color for you in the very near future because customized color truly makes a difference. Regards, The eSalon Team

Seen them both in my store; gold is pale in color, and more like a tan, but brown is beautiful and rich! Your choice...love them both!

The different colors are made for different shades of hair color. The blonde/yellow/gold one helps to cover my roots in between highlights. It has a nice smell in my opinion. I've also used the original, the bottle has blue/green/yellow stripes but I don't really like the smell of it.

Hi Silvermiss,I love Goldwell Elumen Product! What color is your natural hair or the area of hair which your attempting to color? It will make a difference in your results. I would suggest if you attempting to add a lighter-lilac/lavender color, test a mixture of clear Elumen and a drop( a dime size) of VV@all on a color pallet. I would also add taking the color you have created and test it on a white surface(suggested paper to see if it is the desired color you want). I hope this information will help in finding the solution to adding the light lilac/lavender color you want. :) Good Luck! Hi Silvermiss,I love Goldwell Elumen Product!

The "light" is for fine or light colored hair. The "normal" is for all hair types. I have fine blonde hair and have used both types and was happy with both. Hope this helps!

Honestly, I barely can tell any different from them, the color is almost the same. I think the only subtle difference is that the pink one is not as moisturize as the gold one.

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.
