Hair colour conversion
Converting a client's L'Oréal formula into muk? 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.
L'Oréal and muk levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 66 of 165 L'Oréal shades have a muk shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 99, the nearest muk shade changes the result, and knowing that before you mix saves a correction.
The straightforward ones: standard natural shades where both brands print the same level. Any chart gets these right.
