Wella to Inebrya
Converting a client's Wella formula into Inebrya? 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.
190Wella shades in The Shade Library
42have an exact Inebrya match: same depth, same reflects in the same order
2of those matches sit at a different level than the numbers suggest
Why a same-number chart gets these wrong
Brands don't calibrate their levels the same way. For 2 of the Wella shades that have a Inebrya match, the matching Inebrya shade carries a different level on the tube. A chart that swaps like-for-like numbers would send you to the wrong depth for every one of them. The Shade Library maps each shade to a standard depth and reflect structure first, then finds the equivalent.
Sample conversions
The straightforward ones: standard natural shades where both brands print the same level. Any chart gets these right.
