Easy and accurate color mixing. Imagine never again guessing or eyeballing color. The Color Exact Scale accomplishes just that, making the stylist’s job much more precise and professional.
“As a working stylist with over 20 years in the business, I am always looking to perfect my craft. When I started using a color scale, I notice that my formulas were much more consistent and my clients’ colors were the same every time. An added benefit was that I was saving money, since I was not wasting product. This is why I have come out with a scale and made it available to all of us in the business,” said Monica Smullins, creator of the Color Exact Scale.

AminoGenesis Skincare introduces DermaScyne Intense Daily Serum with natural moisturizing factors, a new option to fight premature aging.
Skin is an excellent barrier and the first level of protection for the body. Among the few substances that can penetrate the skin are amino acids—but they must be delivered through an emulsion in order to reach the dozens of various proteins the skin is made of. When these proteins begin to breakdown, they must be repaired or replaced in order for your skin to maintain a youthful, radiant and healthy appearance.
This newest of AminoGenesis’ products is designed to harness the amazing power of amino acids. DermaScyne delivers 25 key biological building blocks to the skin, enabling it to replace and repair its essential proteins as they breakdown. It also supplies crucial natural compounds that bind moisture to the skin. Together, these help to maintain a youthful, radiant and healthy appearance.
To achieve even color tones from root to tip, artificial color often needs to be removed from hair before new color is applied. This is because the new artificial color cannot remove or replace old color already in the hair shaft. Decolorizing Powder packets by Jean Alexander are now available in extra gentle formulas. The packets make any decolorizing service very convenient, particularly for those traveling to do hair.
Jean Alexander Decolorizing Powders are remarkably gentle yet effective and able to lighten hair up to 7 levels without swelling or harming the cuticle. Formulated for both on and off the scalp applications, the powder works quickly and does not dry out during the process.
Jean Alexander’s EQ® System includes Decolorizing Powder, soothing Herbal Cream Color Shades - with and without ammonia, and Ultra-Developers.
