Alfaparf to KEVIN.MURPHY

Converting a client's Alfaparf formula into KEVIN.MURPHY? The Shade Library matches shades by verified depth and ordered reflects, not by the number printed on the tube. Here's how the two ranges line up.

160Alfaparf shades in The Shade Library
67have an exact KEVIN.MURPHY match: same depth, same reflects in the same order
93Alfaparf shades have no exact KEVIN.MURPHY equivalent

Why a same-number chart is not enough

Alfaparf and KEVIN.MURPHY levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 67 of 160 Alfaparf shades have a KEVIN.MURPHY shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 93, the nearest KEVIN.MURPHY shade changes the result, and knowing that before you mix saves a correction.

Sample conversions

The straightforward ones: standard natural shades where both brands print the same level. Any chart gets these right.
