muk to Schwarzkopf

Converting a client's muk formula into Schwarzkopf? 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.

91muk shades in The Shade Library
14have an exact Schwarzkopf match: same depth, same reflects in the same order
77muk shades have no exact Schwarzkopf equivalent

Why a same-number chart is not enough

muk and Schwarzkopf levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 14 of 91 muk shades have a Schwarzkopf shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 77, the nearest Schwarzkopf 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.
