Redken Introduces NEW! Shades EQ Cream and Cover Plus Equalizing Conditioning Color and Brightening Conditioning Color Cream

Now there's no limit to what your colorist can do with Redken Shades EQ! Shades EQ Gloss is the #1 long lasting, no-lift, no-ammonia, demi-permanent haircolor in the U.S., adored by consumers and stylists alike and it just got better. Perfect for those who are color-shy or want a quick fix; new Shades EQ Cream will provide longer-lasting, shiny, smooth and conditioned hair, plus exceptional gray blending and refreshed color. Also new to the Shades EQ family is Shades EQ Cover Plus[1] which features up to 75% gray coverage with demi-permanent results and a subtle brightening effect for a more visible reflect.

“Redken Shades EQ is the backbone of my coloring process. It refreshes and leaves my clients’ hair so vibrant!” says Tracey Cunningham, Celebrity Colorist and Redken Creative Consultant for Color. “Whether I’m using Shades EQ Gloss for a more transparent look or Shades EQ Cream for richer, deeper color, my clients love how shiny and conditioned their hair feels. It takes them straight from the salon to the red carpet.”

Shades EQ Cream and Cover Plus are formulated with pomegranate oil, rice protein and conditioning polymers to help protect, moisturize and nourish the hair fiber. After using Shades EQ Cream and Cover Plus, hair will be shinier, smoother and more conditioned.

New Shades EQ Cream and Cover Plus provide shades with R5 red dye – an extremely chromatic, oxidative dye that creates more powerful and purer red tones. The shades with R5 red dye have the longevity of an oxidative dye while still producing the type of vibrant results that are expected from a direct dye. Unlike direct red dyes, the shades with R5 ensures that the intense red reflect lasts!

This series also features Rubilane® - the truest copper dye for rich, bright copper tones[2] .Rubilane® copper dye is also oxidative, so results don’t fade out fast like direct copper dyes – keeping copper results at high intensity even after 20 shampoos.

“So many of my clients have a permanent color as their base, complemented by a few highlights. I love the new Shades EQ Cream to keep lightened strands fresh between touch-up services,” says David Stanko, Color Consultant for Redken. “Shades EQ Cream is great for maintaining subtle, refined warmth on the highlights and keeping brassiness away.”
