Keune Tinta Cream Developer 9% - 30 VOL 2 Oz

Keune Tinta Cream Developer 9% - 30 VOL 2 Oz in the 2 oz size is a professional-grade oxidizing cream used to activate the pigments in Keune Tinta Permanent Color and other Keune lifting products. It is the necessary component that opens the hair cuticle, allowing the color molecules to penetrate and permanent color to develop.

The 9% (30 Volume) concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide (H2​O2​) is generally used when the colorist needs:

• 2 to 3 levels of lift (lightening) on natural hair.
• More intense color results than 20 Volume.
• Maximum lift when working with Keune's Special Blonde (1500) or Super Ash Blonde (2000) series (where it can achieve up to 5 levels of lift).

Key Technology - LP 300 Color Stabilizer: The Tinta Cream Developer is uniquely formulated with LP 300, a color stabilizer. This ingredient protects the hair structure during the coloring process and ensures that the color pigments bind better and more tightly into the hair. This results in superior color durability, less fading, and optimal color stability. The developer is also extra stabilized, ensuring the H2​O2​ percentage remains consistent even at higher temperatures, which is crucial for predictable color results.

1. Mixing: In a non-metallic bowl, measure and mix the Keune Tinta Color cream (e.g., your previously mentioned 6.38) with the Keune Tinta Cream Developer 9% (30 VOL).
2. Standard Ratio: The standard mixing ratio for Tinta Color is 1 part color to 1 part developer (1:1).
3. Exception: Tinta Super Ash Blonde series often uses a 1:2 ratio. Always refer to the Keune Tinta Color technical manual for the exact instructions for your chosen shade and desired result.
4. Application: Apply the creamy mixture immediately to dry, unwashed hair using a brush.
5. Processing: Allow the color to process for the time specified by the Keune technical instructions (this is generally around 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the desired lift and hair condition).
6. Rinsing: Once the processing time is complete, add a small amount of warm water to the hair, gently massage to emulsify the mixture, and then rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear.
7. Finishing: Follow with Keune After Color Shampoo and Balsam (or a professional pH-balancing conditioner) to neutralize the chemical process and seal the cuticle.
