FAQ
Q: What is the Neutral-Neutral Series?
A: The Neutral-Neutral (NN) 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 NN Series is formulated to deliver true-to-level, balanced neutral tones (neither warm nor ash) — ideal when a natural, versatile, and predictable result is desired.
Q: What benefits does the Neutral-Neutral Series offer?
A:
-
True-to-level / true-to-swatch consistency — the NN line is formulated to deliver predictable, repeatable color results, which helps stylists achieve consistent shades across clients.
-
Low-ammonia formula (less than 1% when mixed) — gentler on hair and scalp compared with high-ammonia dyes, helping preserve hair integrity while still giving permanent results.
-
Expert gray / white-hair coverage — even with neutral tones, the series covers grays effectively, making it suitable for clients seeking natural-looking results.
-
Opalescent finish — the system is designed to give “the reflection of a translucent with the coverage of an opaque,” meaning hair gets rich pigment deposit plus shine and dimension rather than flat, dull color.
-
Creamy consistency and ease of mixing — mixes smoothly with developer for even application and full saturation.
Q: What shades are included in the Neutral-Neutral Series?
A: The NN Series includes a spectrum of levels, for example:
-
1NN / 1N – Neutral Black / Darkest Neutral Shades
-
2N / 3N / 4N – Neutral Brown levels (dark to medium)
-
5N – Neutral Brown
-
6N / 7N – Neutral Blonde (dark to medium)
-
8N / 9N – Light Neutral Blonde / Very Light Neutral Blonde
-
10NN / 10N – Lightest Neutral Blonde
This variety lets stylists choose a neutral tone suitable for many natural hair colors — from deep browns/blacks through to light blondes.
Q: Which clients or situations benefit most from using NN Series?
A: The Neutral-Neutral Series is ideal for:
-
Clients seeking natural, balanced, neutral tones — neither warm/golden nor ash — for a versatile, everyday look.
-
Clients needing gray/white-hair coverage while maintaining a neutral base.
-
Hair that is previously colored, treated, or sensitive — the low-ammonia formula helps minimize stress on hair/scalp.
-
Stylists looking for predictable, repeatable results across clients — especially helpful in a salon or distributor context where consistency matters.
-
Clients who want long-lasting color with a natural finish — good for those who prefer low-maintenance but polished hair color.
Q: How should stylists mix and apply Neutral-Neutral Crème Color for best results?
A: According to the official procedure for the True Integrity system:
-
Mix ratio: Mix 1 part Neutral-Neutral color with 1.5 parts of developer (e.g. Pure Oxi Creme Developer).
-
Apply on dry, unwashed hair using a bowl and brush (or another professional applicator) to ensure even saturation from roots to ends.
-
Processing: Follow the recommended processing time based on hair’s natural level, whether it's virgin or previously colored, and percentage of gray. For gray coverage, some protocols (additives) may apply.
-
Rinse & aftercare: After processing, rinse thoroughly, shampoo with a color-safe shampoo, then condition or apply a treatment to seal in moisture, lock in color, and maintain hair health and shine.
Q: What results can clients expect after using Neutral-Neutral Series?
A: Clients can expect:
-
Hair colored to a balanced, neutral tone — no overt warmth or ash, but a versatile natural-looking base.
-
Uniform color coverage, including on gray or previously treated hair.
-
Hair that appears rich, healthy, and glossy, with dimension and shine rather than flatness.
-
Long-lasting results — as a permanent (or demi-permanent) formula, with good color retention when maintained properly.
Q: Why choose Neutral-Neutral Series over Warm, Ash, or Fashion-tone series?
A: Neutral-Neutral Series is a great “foundation” line — it delivers balanced, reliable, natural-looking color that works for many clients without committing to warm golds, ash, or vivid fashion tones. Because of its low-ammonia formulation, opalescent finish, and predictable, repeatable results, it’s a strong go-to for everyday color services, gray coverage, or clients seeking a clean, versatile neutral base.
