SALERM Salermix Contrast Permanent Hair Color #0.66 Shangai Red, 2.3 oz — High‑Lift Vivid Red with Conditioning Oils

SALERM Salermix Contrast Permanent Hair Color #0.66 Shangai Red is a professional high‑lift permanent dye that delivers vivid, multi‑dimensional red tones and built‑in conditioning for long‑lasting shine.

Designed for those who want a striking red without pre‑bleaching, this 2.3 ounce Salermix Contrast formula lifts and deposits intense pigment in one step. The blend uses concentrated pigments and natural vegetable oils to protect the hair fiber while enhancing reflectivity and color depth. It works on virgin and previously colored hair, producing bright Shangai Red with glossy, multi‑tonal reflections when mixed at the recommended ratio with Salerm oxidant.

How does this color achieve bright red without bleaching?

The Salermix Contrast line uses a high‑lift permanent base that both lightens and tones simultaneously, allowing stronger pigment uptake on darker hair. The color molecules are formulated to penetrate and deposit vibrant red while lifting underlying tones, reducing the need for a separate bleaching step in many cases. Results depend on your starting shade and hair porosity.

• One‑step lift and deposit formula for faster color results.
• Concentrated pigments created for intense red reflections.
• Works on virgin and previously colored hair; very dark hair may still require pre‑lightening.
• Use recommended Salerm oxidant and ratios for best lift and tone balance.

What benefits for hair health and finish does the formula provide?

Salerm incorporates natural vegetable oils into the dye to help shield and condition the hair during processing. Those oils smooth the cuticle and preserve moisture, contributing to a softer feel and a high‑gloss finish after rinsing. The result is color that appears luminous and multi‑dimensional rather than flat.

• Vegetable oils condition while coloring to reduce dryness.
• Cuticle protection enhances shine and color longevity.
• Leaves hair feeling softer compared with non‑conditioning permanents.
• Compatible with regular post‑color care routines for sustained results.

How do I mix and apply Salermix Contrast #0.66 Shangai Red at home?

Mix the Salermix Contrast 2.3 oz color cream with Salerm oxidant at a 1:2 ratio (color:oxidant) as recommended by the brand. Apply to dry hair using gloves and a brush, processing at room temperature; adding foil or gentle heat can intensify lift and reflection on resistant hair. Always follow timing guidelines and perform a strand test to confirm final shade and condition.

• Recommended mix: 1 part color to 2 parts Salerm oxidant.
• Apply on dry hair; process according to instructions and strand test.
• Foil or heat may enhance lift on darker or resistant hair.
• Rinse thoroughly and use a color‑safe conditioner after processing.

How long does the color last and how can I maintain the vivid red?

As a permanent dye, Salermix Contrast deposits long‑lasting pigment, but red tones typically show gradual fading with normal washing and sun exposure. Use sulfate‑free, color‑protecting shampoos, cool water rinses, and UV protection to extend vibrancy. Periodic color refreshes or gloss treatments help revive intensity between permanent applications.

• Permanent pigmentation for extended wear with normal maintenance.
• Use color‑safe, sulfate‑free products to slow fading.
• Cold rinses and UV protection preserve reflections and shine.
• Refresh with glosses or touch‑ups to maintain depth of red.

Who is this for: Salermix Contrast #0.66 Shangai Red is ideal for anyone seeking a bold, high‑intensity red with professional performance—stylists and experienced at‑home colorists who want a single‑step high‑lift permanent that conditions as it colors. It suits people with natural or previously colored hair who want vivid, shiny red without an extra bleaching process, though very dark hair may require pre‑lightening for the brightest results. Follow brand mixing instructions and perform a strand test to ensure the desired outcome.
