HAIR DYES WELLA
( number of products: 25 )
Each Wella hair dye comes with a majestic color name that describes the shade you can achieve by using the product. However, these vibrant names often don’t provide much practical information to the user. Therefore, in addition to the names, hair dye products are also assigned a number that helps decode the exact color offered—if you know the secret color code! ;)
How to Read Wella Hair Dye Numbers:
The first digit of the hair dye number indicates the base color. The lower the number, the darker the shade:
- 1 - Black
- 2 - Very dark brown
- 3 - Dark brown
- 4 - Brown
- 5 - Light brown
- 6 - Dark blonde
- 7 - Blonde
- 8 - Light blonde
- 9 - Very light blonde
- 10 - Very, very light blonde
- 10½ - Super light blonde
The second digit represents the tone or reflection of the color:
- 0 - Neutral, enhancing or reducing the depth of the reflection, base color
- 1 - Ash (cool, blue)
- 2 - Iridescent (cool, purple)
- 3 - Golden (warm)
- 4 - Copper (warm)
- 5 - Mahogany (warm)
- 6 - Red (cool, cherry)
- 7 - Metallic (cool)
- 8 - Mocha
The third digit indicates a smaller, complementary reflection tone and is read similarly:
- 0 - Neutral, enhancing or reducing the reflection
- 1 - Ash (cool, blue)
- 2 - Iridescent (cool, purple)
- 3 - Golden (warm)
- 4 - Copper (warm)
- 5 - Mahogany (warm)
- 6 - Red (cool, cherry)
- 7 - Metallic (cool)
- 8 - Mocha
The "0" is particularly important—if it appears as the second digit, the reflection will be less intense; if it appears as the third digit, the reflection will be more intense.
Hair Dye Series:
The numbering system for hair colors is designed to help both customers and sellers organize products by color. Wella's Wellaton hair dye series follows the same numbering rules, and you can either use these codes or rely on the descriptive names provided by the brand. However, sometimes your perception of the color may differ slightly from the manufacturer's vision.
Note: In some cases, you may encounter other color codes for hair dyes:
- N - Neutral (natural)
- A - Ash
- NA - Neutral with an additional ash reflection
- B - Beige or brown
- S - Silver
- G - Golden
- V - Iridescent or violet
- R - Red
