A physical reference tool displays the range of available colors within a specific semi-permanent hair color line. It provides visual representations of how each shade appears on different hair bases, aiding colorists in accurate shade selection and client consultation.
This tool is essential for professional colorists because it eliminates guesswork and ensures predictable results. It streamlines the consultation process, allowing clients to visualize potential outcomes before application. The presence of such resources demonstrates a commitment to accuracy and client satisfaction within a salon setting. Historically, these tools have evolved from simple color charts to comprehensive guides incorporating hair swatches and detailed product information.
