Shades EQ's Acidic pH Formula

The acidic pH of Shades EQ is a conditioning formula for cuticle sealing, healthy-looking and feeling hair.
Many things can alter the pH of hair, including a lightening session. Shades EQ brings hair back into its natural acidic state, helping to avoid frizz, dryness, and damage.
Often Imitated, Never Replicated

Effective formulas that are pH balancing have been a part of Redken's DNA since it was founded in the 1960s. Today, Shades EQ is the #1 demi-permanent color in the world.*
