Schwarzkopf to Davines

Converting a client's Schwarzkopf formula into Davines? 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.

44have an exact Davines match: same depth, same reflects in the same order
170Schwarzkopf shades have no exact Davines equivalent

Why a same-number chart is not enough

Schwarzkopf and Davines levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 44 of 214 Schwarzkopf shades have a Davines shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 170, the nearest Davines 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.
