Schwarzkopf Professional Igora Royal Permanent Hair Color 0-89 Red Violet Concentrate - Intense Tone & Grey Coverage

Schwarzkopf Professional Igora Royal 0-89 Red Violet Concentrate is a permanent salon-grade hair color concentrate formulated to deliver an intense red-violet tone, reliable grey coverage, and precise mixing flexibility for professional results.

Igora Royal pairs a color creme with Schwarzkopf's Color and Care Developer to create vivid, long-lasting shades and even coverage. This 0-89 Red Violet Concentrate is designed for stylists looking to add strong red-violet nuances or intensify fashion shades. It works with a variety of developer strengths so you can control lift, tone and coverage depending on the starting hair level and desired outcome.

How do I mix and apply the 0-89 Red Violet Concentrate?

Mix the color concentrate with the Color and Care Developer at the recommended ratios to achieve the correct intensity and coverage. Always apply on dry hair and follow timing guidelines; additional heat will speed up development if needed.

• Standard mixing ratio: 1:1 (color creme : developer).
• Apply to dry hair; develop 30–45 minutes; rinse, shampoo and neutralize.
• Optional heat reduces processing time by about one third.

Which developer strength should I choose for grey coverage or lift?

Choose developer concentration based on the level change and grey percentage. Lower volumes are for subtle tone or darker results, while stronger developers provide more lift and are necessary for lightening or covering resistant hair.

• 3% (10 vol) — for darker results or minimal lift.
• 6% (20 vol) — tone-on-tone, 1 level lift, or up to 50% grey coverage.
• 9% (30 vol) — 1–2 levels of lift.
• 12% (40 vol) — up to 2–3 levels of lift and stronger lightening.

Can I use 0-89 on previously colored or porous hair?

Yes — for previously tinted or porous hair, use a colorist method such as a dual application to equalize and refresh color. Adding underlying base tones may be required when shifting several levels, and careful mixing ratios help balance results on porous strands.

• Previously colored hair: consider a dual application (colorist method).
• For shades with 50% coverage aiming two levels lighter, add a base tone at 2:1 mixing ratio.
• Use neutralizing shampoo and color-care aftercare for even tone and shine.
