Hair colour conversion
Converting a client's Schwarzkopf formula into Alfaparf? 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.
Schwarzkopf and Alfaparf levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 58 of 214 Schwarzkopf shades have a Alfaparf shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 156, the nearest Alfaparf 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.
