Redken to KEVIN.MURPHY
Converting a client's Redken 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.
262Redken shades in The Shade Library
57have an exact KEVIN.MURPHY match: same depth, same reflects in the same order
205Redken shades have no exact KEVIN.MURPHY equivalent
Why a same-number chart is not enough
Redken and KEVIN.MURPHY levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 57 of 262 Redken shades have a KEVIN.MURPHY shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 205, 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.
