FAQ 

Q: What is the Neutral Series of True Integrity Crème Color?
A: The Neutral Series is part of Scruples’ “True Integrity / Opalescent Crème Colour” system — a low-ammonia permanent (or demi-permanent, depending on developer) hair-color line. The Neutral Series offers natural, balanced “neutral” shades (neither ash-cool nor warm/golden) — ideal when clients want a classic, versatile natural-looking hair color. 

Q: What shades are included in the Neutral Series?
A: Shades range across the spectrum from darkest to lightest neutral:

• 1N — Neutral Black

• 2N, 3N — Dark Neutral Brown

• 4N, 5N — Medium / Neutral Brown

• 6N — Dark Neutral Blonde

• 7N — Medium Neutral Blonde

• 8N — Light Neutral Blonde

• 9N — Very Light Neutral Blonde

• 10N — Lightest Neutral Blonde 

Q: What are the main benefits of using the Neutral Series?
A:

• Natural, balanced color — the neutral tones provide a versatile, classic look suitable for many clients, without overly warm or overly cool undertones. 

• Low-ammonia formula — less than 1% ammonia when mixed, which helps reduce chemical stress on hair and scalp while still giving permanent (or demi-permanent) results. 

• Reliable gray / white-hair coverage — designed to cover grays effectively while giving a natural neutral tone. 

• Opalescent finish — the color system is designed to deliver “the reflection of a translucent with the coverage of an opaque,” so hair ends up looking rich, dimensional, shiny — not flat or dull.

• True-to-level & true-to-swatch consistency — shades are calibrated so stylists can predictably match swatches to real results — helpful for repeat clients and maintaining standardization.

Q: Who is the Neutral Series ideal for — what hair types or client needs does it serve best?
A: The Neutral Series is great for:

• Clients who want natural, classic-looking hair color — neutral browns or neutral blondes — rather than trendy or dramatic tones.

• Clients needing gray or white-hair coverage but wanting a neutral base (no ash, no warmth).

• Hair that may be previously colored or sensitive — the low-ammonia formula is gentler than high-ammonia dyes.

• Stylists who want to offer versatile, universally flattering shades that suit many skin tones and client preferences.

• Clients who want a long-lasting color result that’s relatively easy to maintain and doesn’t show strong undertones.

Q: How should a stylist mix and apply Neutral Series color for best results?
A: According to the manufacturer’s instructions for True Integrity:

• Mix at a ratio of 1 part color : 1.5 parts developer (e.g., 1 oz color + 1.5 oz developer). 

• Apply to dry, unwashed hair using a bowl & brush (or appropriate professional applicator). 

• Process for the recommended time per the developer chart. For gray coverage or resistant hair, follow the system’s gray-coverage guidelines. 

• After processing, rinse and shampoo with a color-safe shampoo, then apply a conditioner or treatment to seal in moisture, preserve shine, and maintain hair health.

Q: What results can clients expect after using Neutral Series?
A: Clients should see:

• Hair colored in balanced, natural neutral tones (from rich neutral brown to soft neutral blonde, depending on shade) — versatile and widely flattering.

• Even, consistent color coverage, including over gray or previously treated hair.

• Hair that has shine, depth, and dimension, thanks to the opalescent formula — not flat or dull-looking color.

• Long-lasting, stable color (permanent or demi-permanent, depending on developer), with predictable fade/resistance when maintained properly.

Q: Why choose Neutral Series over other tone-linked series (like Warm, Ash, Pearl, etc.)?
A: The Neutral Series offers a safe, easy baseline — a classic, universally wearable hair color that’s unlikely to clash with skin tones or fall out of fashion. It avoids the potential pitfalls of overly warm (brassy) or overly cool (ashy) tones. Because it’s part of the low-ammonia, opalescent True Integrity system, it balances integrity, consistency, and ease of maintenance — ideal for clients seeking timeless, everyday hair color.
