I don't agree with the previous comment at all! The ammonia-free product is applied ONLY to clean hair. Dilute in proportions 1:1 with an activator of 2.7% (this is what is intended for ammonia-free!) onto clean, freshly washed (without balm!) dry!! ! hair. The time is counted from the last application (smear). Exposure time 20 minutes. I’m talking specifically about this company, since I work for Matrix.

Leovochka

I haven’t seen ammonia in the composition of paints - there is ammonium hydroxide and a bunch of other salts. the so-called ammonia is simply replaced by another similar substance, so “gentle” is a rather dubious term. If some paint contains a substance that acts more gently, then it will wash off 100% much faster than regular paint and you will not be able to make drastic changes with it, as you would like. And now, in fact, hairdressers recommend applying the dye to dirty hair (supposedly it is less damaged), dry hair is better - wet hair will be damaged more when spreading the dye with a comb, the time is counted after dyeing the roots, and the rest of the length is usually distributed a little later (after 15-20 minutes) and hold for another 10-15 minutes. regarding light roots - keep it the same as you kept it for the first time (for new paint you can only determine it experimentally).

Glazing hair at home, color correction, effect of burnt strands. Toning from Matrix.

Hello girls!

I want to tell you about another hair product that did not leave you indifferent and, moreover, became a favorite.

This is a series of cream paints without ammonia Color Sync from MATRIX.

I was inspired to try colorless paint from Matrix La_Sirene with your feedback and of course the result.

I would like to say a big thank you for this.

Before this I used a pretty good one paint from Wella Color Touch.

Having some experience in hair care, I roughly know what results to expect.

During the process of active treatment, I tried to discard all chemical products and switch to natural ones, avoiding silicones, SLS and much more.

This is a conscious choice and marketing gimmicks have nothing to do with it.

Having treated my hair a little, or rather a lot, I returned to my favorite care.

And my favorites have always been salon procedures such as lamination, keratin restoration, reconstruction and much more...

I decided to update this list with a new procedure for me - glazing.

What are Color Sync cream colors from Matrix?

From the manufacturer:

Color Sync cream dye is an ammonia-free professional hair coloring product from the American company Matrix. Perfect for color restoration, coloring, tinting, coloring, changing the current shade. The absence of ammonia will help maintain the health of your hair. They do not dry out and are not exposed to harmful chemical effects. The coloring element settles on the surface of the hair without damaging the structure. This property allows the paint to be used quite often. Regular use of the dye allows pigments to accumulate in the hair, which promotes uniform and deep color. The vitamins included in the color cream actively care for the hair. After the coloring procedure, they look great: flawless shade, gorgeous shine, unsurpassed softness and elasticity.

Not all paints from this series can be used frequently, as the manufacturer writes.

This applies to the first shade that I will talk about - CLEAR (transparent).

Actually, this is the shade that will give our hair a gorgeous shine and shine.

1. Price: 126 hryvnia.

Unfortunately, due to the general rise in prices, the paint has risen from 88 hryvnia to such a wild price... However, like the Activator, which cost 90 hryvnia, and now 126.

2. Volume: 90ml

2 times 45 ml is enough for my hair.

3. Manufacturer: Matrix (USA)????

And here we will figure out who is deceiving whom.

There is a lot of information on the Internet that the manufacturer is USA, including on the website [link], but they send paint made in Spain.

It doesn’t matter to me who the manufacturer is, but you should still be careful about the information for customers.

And I noticed this only thanks to writing a review.

4. Packing:

Well...everything here is “just the way I like it.” Just like in your favorite paint from Wella color touch only instructions and tube.

Typical packaging of a professional product. =)

Tube of paint

5. Composition:

Aqua, Cetearyl Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, Deceth-3, Laureth-12, Ethanolamine, Oleth-30, Lauric Acid, Glycol Distearate, polyquaternium-6, Hexadimethrine Chloride, Silica Dimethyl Silylate, pentasodium Pentetate, Parfum, Sodium Metabisulfite, Polyquaternium-22 , Carbomer, Mica, Erythorbic Acid, CI 77891, Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil, Prunus Persica Kernel Oil, Resorcinol, Toluene-2,5-Diamine, m-Aminophenol, Hydroxybenzomorpholine, 2,4-Diaminophenoxyethanol Hcl, 2-Oleamido-1, 3-Octadecanediol, Thioglycerin.

I imagine my hair BEFORE glazing

What is glazing?

Glazing Matrix hair is coating its surface with a special composition called glaze. It consists of a complex of ceramides necessary to restore the structure of the hair, and nutrients of plant origin.

Indications for use of glazing

The glazing procedure is completely harmless to hair; on the contrary, it will be very useful for dry, weakened, thin hair or split ends. When glazing, preparations that do not contain ammonia additives are used; they include moisturizing components and ceramides. Ceramides have the ability to penetrate damaged hair structure and smooth it out. The thinnest film created along the entire length of the hair seals the hair, slightly thickens it, lifts it in the root zone, and due to this, the hair appears healthy, thick and has a natural shine. If there is no need to completely cover the hair, then you can glaze only the damaged ends.

Glazing at home

Shade CLEAR (transparent)

Glazing can be colorless or colored.

I tried both options, but since I started with the shade Clear, I’ll talk about it first.

I would like to note that this procedure is more protective and aesthetic than therapeutic.

But, be that as it may, it’s worth it!

The process itself is reminiscent of regular hair coloring, only reduced by 2 times.

There is no need to use color stabilizer, balm or any other products.

Shampoo, paints and activator - this is our kit for this procedure.

1. Color Sync cream paint from Matrix shade Clear.

Volume: 90 ml

2. Deep cleaning shampoo. I have Estel Deep cleaning.

Not everyone is of the opinion that deep cleaning should be used.

But, I notice a significant difference if I wash my hair with regular shampoo.

Firstly, with the constant use of oils and silicones (yes, sometimes I sin in this matter), the hair becomes clogged and needs to be deeply cleansed.

Secondly, the color applies more evenly, its depth is more intense and saturated.

3. Oxidizing agent, also known as Matrix Color Sync Activator 2.7% V9.

Volume: 90 ml

I would like to note that only this activator is used for this palette and not any other!

If you are not a super mega stylist who knows a lot about the proportions of colors, mixing them and is confident in the result, then don’t take risks.

Color Sync shades are mixed only with 2.7%V9 activator.

Extra Coverage Color Sync shades with activator 6%V9.

An activator above 6% is not used in these series.

I find 2.7% is more than enough for the Clear shade.

Activator cost:

1000 ml: 115-130 hryvnia. You can buy to [link]

90 ml: 15 hryvnia (on tap in professional stores).

Mode of application:

1. Comb and wash your hair.

2. Dry with a towel

3. Mix the paint and activator. Half a tube is enough for my hair, that is, 45 ml of dye and 45 ml of activator.

Mix the paint and cream-activator Matrix color sync in equal proportions. For initial application, apply the mixture to the roots and distribute along the entire length of the hair. During secondary coloring, the first half of the time the dye should be only on the root part, and then distributed over the remaining areas. For simple toning, leave the product on for 20 minutes without using additional heat. For deep toning of gray hair, the conditions are the same, only the hair should be covered with a cap. To achieve a transparent shade, Matrix color sync dye is mixed with the activator in a 1:1 ratio and applied to the hair. To “dilute” a tone that is too dark, add a clear tint to the paint you are using.

As for me, the 1:1 ratio is quite convenient. Especially for those girls who get confused in calculations and don’t know what 2:3 is, for example.

Look at the type of paint and activator.

It has a really pearly tint that doesn't appear right away (after about a minute).

4. After 20-25 minutes, rinse with water.

Result:

After washing off the paint, due to the lack of a color stabilizer, such as, for example, Wella Color Touch , I use one of my regular hair masks (Planet Organics "Deep Recovery", Grandmother Agafya's recipes "Yeast" to enhance growth, Protein hair mask (highly recommend), Planeta Organica Nutritious "Aleppo").

First hair wash.

For me, the problem of “washing out” the paint does not exist after switching to lightweight shampoos. Especially beloved Siberian series Recipes of Grandmother Agafya (No. 1 on cedar propolis “Strengthening”, No. 3 on burdock propolis “Anti hair loss”, No. 2 on birch propolis "Regenerating" AndNo. 4 on flower propolis "Volume and splendor").

Application is no different from the Clear shade.

It feels the same.

I used this shade to even out the color and smooth out the contrast of the regrown roots.

I didn’t want to become a redhead after active Clear.

For some reason, I have no doubt that if you get carried away, you can easily lighten 3-4 shades.

Result:

Subsequent coloring:

The Clear shade lightens the hair a little. Due to this, that same magical shine appears.

The second coloring did not cause such delight and I think that using this shade 2 times in a row is not advisable. (I consider alternation to be the ideal application. colorless shade with in color.)

The color is very “eaten up” during the second dyeing. But, by the way, this is a feature of the paint itself, so it would be stupid to blame it.

One of the possibilities of a colorless shade is the effect of burnt strands.

For a good master or just a curious layman shade CLEAR can be an excellent tool for flights of fancy.

When I first dyed, I took advantage of a very useful opportunity color correction!

Not long ago I wrote a review about budget paint Acme color Rowan , which could not satisfy with its color.

So Matrix coped with the problem perfectly. This dye added shine to the hair and depth of color!

My impressions:

• does not weigh down hair (compared to lamination)
• Clear provides a more noticeable shine than colored paint
• protects hair a little
• durability for more than 1 month (I use shampoos with mild surfactants, so the paints last up to 2 months)

Product advantages:

- quality

- ease of use

- Clear shade options

(Color correction, effect of burnt strands, dilution of shade and of course glazing)

- palette of shades

Disadvantages of the product:

- price

- availability

(Only in professional stores)

I have been using Matrix paints for more than 5 months.

Not just paint, without training you can turn blue. Shade UL-A+

Hi all.

As an introduction, I want to immediately warn you that the paint is professional, and I have not been trained to work with it, I don’t know all the intricacies. I tried to use it by analogy with another professional hair dye that I am familiar with. Focus failed. But I won't give it a bad rating. Because knowledgeable people work very well on it. Painting with it pretty much frayed my nerves, and I am writing this review for the same amateurs so that they don’t step on my rake.

So, I purchased the shade from the super-brightening series. It is intended for dyeing natural hair blonde. I chose an ashy shade. I didn’t expect it to turn out ashen, because my hair is quite dark in color. In the language of hairdressers, they have a sixth level of tone depth. I always use dyes in cool shades, but the roots turn out warm if you don’t twist them with correctors. This time I didn't add any correctors (I usually use blue to neutralize the orange background highlight that my tone level 6 gives and ammonia to enhance the highlight). I refused to use correctors because the dye was unfamiliar to me, and I didn’t know how intense the pigments were in it, and how much it could lighten my hair.

The paints in the package are as much as 90 grams. Quite economical. I thought it would be enough to tint the roots twice.

So, the base. Regrown roots 1 cm. Next, bleached yellowish faded blonde, level 9. (not white, like a refrigerator) Diluted paint with oxide 9% exposure time, proportions are indicated in the instructions. It seems to be nothing complicated.

I began to feel the catch already while the dye was aging on my hair - it began to turn too blue. But I drove the bad thoughts away; the color of the hair dye usually has nothing to do with the result.

The second time concerns crept in when I went to wash it off. When I wet my hair and began to lift the dye from my scalp with my fingers, it became several times more! It got all over my hair and I couldn’t wash it off for several minutes! This is the first time I've encountered this. What's the end result? All the hair was dyed a bluish-ashy tone. Especially weakened hair on the bangs and temples.

Nightmare. Blue was the color, exactly blue! What about the roots? Remained copper. This is the number. Gray hair made the roots visually even yellower. But okay roots. What to do with blue hair? I was shocked, I have to go to work tomorrow...

The epic began with the washing away of what she had done. Several washes with deep cleansing shampoo had little effect on the scale of the disaster. But I remembered the red tonic. I mixed it with shampoo and lathered the blue areas. It helped. The color became neutral. Very tired. I already have a headache.

but the roots remained under-lightened. I had to paint them again on the second day. You will be surprised, but I did it again with matrix paint, which I had left over from the last time, but I kept the tonic at the ready. Now the border of the clarified ones had already leveled off, and the ashes did not bother me. And I cleaned up the blue again with tonic.

The photo shows the hair after the second coloring the next day. I didn’t take a picture of the blue catastrophe, you’ll have to take my word for it, or check it from your own experience. It’s just that at that moment I had no time for reviews, honestly. In life, the color was a little grayer (but the tonic did its job, the blue and ash were almost gone), but somehow it didn’t work out in the photo, you can evaluate the uniformity of the color.

I have no complaints about the effect on hair quality, quite the opposite. As soon as the dye worked on the length of the hair for a couple of minutes while rinsing off, I immediately felt tactilely that the structure had improved a little.

But it remains a mystery to me how, according to the manufacturer’s idea, I can dye natural roots with this shade (after all, it is intended only for undyed hair), and not stain dyed hair, which will turn blue in an instant? Or can it be used to dye, or do highlights, highlights, only on completely natural hair? Then such an amount of blue pigment will justify itself and will hide the yellowness and copper that will remain on insufficiently bleached hair. Because hair lightened with dye is not as cold and light as with bleaching and subsequent toning.

By the way, the packaging promises 5 levels of lightening. I lightened it by 2 in one level. I used 9% oxide, I don’t think that 12% oxide would have lightened it much more, at least it doesn’t work with other companies. A maximum of one tone is added to the lightening level.

But I repeat, I didn’t handle this paint professionally, so it’s my own fault for all my adventures, so think for yourself, decide for yourself. I won’t use it anymore for now; there are more proven options.

Matrix, you are amazing! It was me who messed up:(+PHOTO

Hello girls!

Today I dedicate my review to permanent hair dye Matrix Socolor beauty.

Background: I wanted to get out of the terrible red-pink color that arose due to incorrect henna coloring using Estel remover. By the way, I dreamed of a more golden shade. And it seems that I got it after washing it, but after consulting with those in the know, I found out that the henna pigment was partially washed out of the hair and now I need to fill it in by dyeing my hair with dye. In my small town there were no ammonia-free, gentle dyes, I had to take what I had, because I was itching to dye my hair...

Photos before painting:

So I bought the dye... I don’t know where my head was, but instead of shade 0.0, or, as it is also called “clear”, I decided to give my hair a reddish tint, and without any understanding of color, I took 7СG, in general, " I fell for the color from the palette.

About the paint: The paint didn't have any super nasty smell. By the way, I am very sensitive to smells, but the paint really smells mild. Well, or so it seems to me after the strong smell of the remover. I bought the activator from Estel, 1.5%, since there was no “native” one in our professional stores.

The safety precautions are clearly marked on the paint.

Also, instructions were included with the paint:

I kept the dye on my hair for 1 hour. Largely due to the fact that the oxide is minimal - 1.5%.

There were no difficulties with washing it off; I washed it off very thoroughly with warm water.

And so, my hair is wet, and I am gradually being brought into a state of despair - my hair is red again, and has seriously darkened... No one is to blame for this but me. The color, I can tell you, turned out great, despite the small percentage of oxide.

Photo the day after dyeing: The redness and darkened overall tone of the hair are visible to the naked eye.

I decided to try to remove the paint using homemade methods. Kefir, soda, lemon juice, alcohol, vinegar, and oils were used. In general, everything that could somehow lighten them, because I could no longer raise my hand to make an acid wash (although all of the products listed are also incredibly harmful for already damaged hair). I did the masks for about 3 days, because I read that this is the best time to get rid of at least partially the results of hair coloring.

Here's what came out of it: At this stage, I decided to leave my hair alone, because I was pretty tired of being sad, I thought that someday it would slowly wash itself...

1. There is no creepy, sickening smell;

2. The condition of the hair is not bad (I still had 4 washes).

Thank you for stopping by my review!

Even more reviews on my ADALIN page

• D-Glucosamine Sulfate - 300 mg;
• Chondroitine Sulfate - 100 mg;

"Matrix" is an effective balanced complex, its components are a preventive agent for inflammatory and degenerative diseases of the musculoskeletal system: osteoarthritis, osteoarthrosis, secondary (post-traumatic) gonarthrosis and coxarthrosis, dorsopathy of degenerative etiology (osteochondrosis, osteoporosis, spondylitis, spondylosis) , fibromyalgia, as well as joint restoration after fractures and injuries.

The purpose of creating “Matrix” is to provide the body in sufficient quantities with all the “building material” necessary for the restoration of joint fluid, cartilage and connective tissue. The main pathological mechanism causing the destruction of cartilage is considered to be a violation of the metabolism of proteoglycans - proteins that make up the matrix - an intermediate substance that, together with chondrocytes - cartilage cells, forms cartilage tissue. Through the matrix, chondrocytes are supplied with nutrition, water and oxygen. The matrix of cartilage tissue loses the constituent parts of proteoglycans - glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid) from the superficial, intermediate and deep zones of cartilage. This leads to disintegration and splitting of the matrix, its excessive hydration with subsequent dehydration, changes in the processes of diffusion of metabolites in it, disorganization and rupture of collagen fibers.

Healthy joints produce their own glucosamine, which takes part in the synthesis of proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid in intra-articular synovial fluid and is the material for the normal formation of joint fluid, cartilage and connective tissue. Glucosamine sulfate is required to form a substance that binds water in the cartilage tissue matrix. Thus, glucosamine is a raw material needed by the body to produce mucopolysaccharides called glycosaminoglycans. As the disease progresses, the body's production of glucosamine may stop completely. Glucosamine stimulates the synthesis of collagen protein, the main component of cartilage tissue. By restoring the matrix of cartilage tissue, glucosamine sulfate effectively supports the normal function of joints and the spine, normalizes calcium deposition in bone tissue. It has an anti-inflammatory effect and helps inhibit the development of degenerative processes in joints.

Chondroitin sulfate, which is part of the complex, is one of the main structural components of cartilage. It contains a group of ready-made glycosaminoglycans and elements of the collagen matrix of the bone, which stimulate the regeneration (renewal) of cartilage, maintain the viscosity of the synovial fluid and have an analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect.

“Matrix” (a complex of glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate), after entering the body, is integrated into the structures of cartilage tissue, stimulating its synthesis and suppressing destruction. Its timely and regular use ensures prevention, inhibition and stabilization of the development of destructive processes in cartilage. Long-term use of the complex helps restore the mechanical and elastic integrity of the cartilage tissue matrix, thereby improving functional indicators and mobility of the joints and spine, reducing the need for taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and, in some cases, allowing them to be discontinued and combined with drugs used to treat concomitant diseases, has a good analgesic effect, reduces pain and inflammation, and therefore improves the quality of life.

Indications for use

• prevention of diseases or development of deformations of the musculoskeletal system (osteoarthrosis, secondary (post-traumatic) gonarthrosis and coxarthrosis, dorsopathy of degenerative etiology (osteochondrosis, osteoporosis, spondylitis, spondylosis), fibromyalgia, salt deposition, etc., especially for the elderly;
• promotes the regeneration of damaged cartilage tissue and intra-articular fluid, restoration of joints after fractures and injuries;
• recommended for increased functional load on the joints (overweight, physical activity);

What are Matrix paints made of?

The main difference from other manufacturing companies is the absence of ammonia, or its low concentration. The composition of “Color Sync”, “Ultra Blonde” and “Sokolor Beauty” paints includes the following components:

1. Ceramides of type “R” are an artificially obtained substance from natural plant components that prevent the skin from losing moisture and oxidizing. Glues cuticles together, restores damaged surfaces, and strengthens the strength of the hair.

What do you need to know when using?

If you decide to paint at home, take it seriously:

• There are always instructions on the tube, read it, pay attention to contraindications due to the presence of ammonia in a certain amount.
• Use the services of a colorist and have your hair diagnosed to determine which color palette is most suitable.
• Mix the dye and oxidizing agent in a one to one ratio. This affects the color and durability of the paint.
• Considering that the paint does not contain ammonia, use paint several shades lighter than your base color. Hair may become darker than planned.

Apply the dye to your hair using a brush or comb, first at the roots and then along the rest of the length. The paint needs to be applied, not rubbed.

After this, comb your hair, evenly distributing the dye along the entire length of the curls. Place a plastic cap on your head. Rinse the skin with warm water, wash the skin, not the dye on the hair. After the procedure, it will be better to use conditioner to nourish and soften the curls, and the color palette will be exactly what you wanted.

When working with “Color sync”, “Socolor Beauty”, “Ultra Blonde”, hair stylists recommend the following:

1. To understand which shade suits you best, test “Color Sync” dye on a couple of strands, and not on your entire head of hair.

2. Hair should be dry when applied. To prevent the skin around your hair from becoming stained, use a protective cream.

When using the Matrix product at home, utmost care must be taken. It is advisable to first consult with a hairdresser-colorist. He will show you the shades that suit you best. When purchasing products without ammonia, choose a color that is 1-2 shades lighter than what you want, since when dyeing you can get a darker shade.

Before painting, carefully read the instructions for use of a particular paint. You can try applying it to one strand, hold it for the specified time and check if you get the color you wanted. If the result is positive, proceed with the procedure.

Please note that the dye is applied only to dry hair. Often not only they are colored, but also the skin of the face and neck. To avoid this trouble, use a special protective substance, Scalp Protect, which Matrix also produces. The cream is very effective and washes off easily.

Coloring rules:

1. Mix dyes with activators strictly in the specified proportions. The durability of the color and its brightness will depend on your thoroughness.
2. Pay special attention to the hair roots. Apply the creamy dye first to them using a comb or a special brush, wait 8-10 minutes, and then apply to the rest of your hair.
3. Comb with a comb, evenly distributing the product over the entire length, put on a plastic cap, and wait for the time specified in the instructions.
4. Wash your hair in warm running water, rinsing the roots especially thoroughly, but not scrubbing your hair too hard. After this, it is not recommended to use shampoo for 2-3 days. The dye needs to be given time to penetrate the hair. It is advisable to use a conditioner from the same company, which softens and nourishes the hair.

Hairdressing experts recommend using golden or ash tones to cover gray hair - they look more noble. If gray hair is dark, dyeing with several shades of chestnut or chocolate color is practiced.
