Achieve natural-looking, multi-dimensional, luminous colour with Wella Professionals Illumina Color. This permanent hair colour range delivers natural-looking results with up to 100% grey/white coverage and up to 3 levels of lift. All shades in the Illumina Color range are intermixable to allow for a personalised colour service. The range consists of a warm, neutral and cool colour palette, and can be used to lighten, darken and enhance colour. Illumina Color works with Microlight Technology to protect the cuticles so they maintain their clarity. Copper on the hair’s cuticle can leave a rough surface which can interfere with standard colour development. Microlight Technology surrounds copper to leave cuticles smooth and clear which allows for outstanding light reflection, resulting in shiny hair that’s illuminated from within, in any kind of light. For best results use with Wella Welloxon Perfect. Use with Welloxon Perfect Developer in a 1:1 ratio, e.g. 60ml Illumina Color + 60ml Welloxon Perfect Developer.

What level of lift can I expect?

Is this product suitable for all hair types?
It is suitable for adult users seeking permanent hair color. However, results can vary based on natural hair color, porosity, and condition. Professional consultation is advised.
Troubleshooting
Color not developing evenly
Ensure the mixing ratio was precise (1:1) and the developer was Wella Welloxon Perfect. Check for consistent application and ensure no sections were missed. Hair condition and porosity can affect results; pre-treatment may be necessary for very porous hair.
Insufficient lift achieved
Verify the correct Wella Welloxon Perfect developer strength was used. For greater lift, a higher volume developer (e.g., 9% or 12% if appropriate for hair condition) might be needed, following manufacturer guidelines strictly.
Color appears too dark or too light
This can be due to variations in natural hair color porosity or previous color treatments. Ensure the correct target shade was chosen based on the starting hair color and desired outcome. Consult the Wella color chart for accurate shade results.
Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring
While Illumina Color is designed to protect the cuticle, hair condition varies. Ensure proper conditioning treatments post-color. Use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner, and consider Wella's post-color care services.
