Davines Color vs. Traditional Hair Color: Why Clean Beauty Matters for Your Hair & Scalp

Hair color is no longer just about the shade — it’s about how it makes you feel: comfortable on the scalp, soft on the hair, aligned with your values, and beautiful long after you leave the salon. At Salon Amiche, our color philosophy reflects this shift. We choose formulas that protect the hair fiber, respect the scalp, and deliver luminous, modern results.

This is why we use Davines — a luxury Italian color line known for elevated performance, clean chemistry, and sustainable beauty.

If you’re curious about what makes Davines different from traditional color, here’s a clear and refined breakdown.

What Sets Davines Color Apart

Davines takes a thoughtful approach to every formula, blending biotechnology, naturally derived ingredients, and environmentally conscious practices. The result: high-performing color that supports long-term hair and scalp health.

Clean, Intentional Chemistry

Davines color is crafted with:

  • Naturally derived lipids for softness
  • Gentle, scalp-respecting alkalizers
  • Low-ammonia or ammonia-free formulas
  • Rich conditioning agents that leave hair silky and luminous

It’s luxury color without unnecessary harshness.


Mask with Vibrachrom™ vs. Traditional Permanent Color

Traditional permanent color often relies on:

  • High ammonia
  • Strong chemical odors
  • Harsh alkalinity
  • Dyes that can weaken the hair over time

Davines Mask with Vibrachrom™ offers a more modern, elevated alternative.

Why Clients Love Mask with Vibrachrom™

  • Low-ammonia, comfortable on the scalp
  • Deep, dimensional color with long-lasting vibrancy
  • Quinoa protein for elasticity and shine
  • Phospholipid carriers for enhanced pigment deposit
  • Smooth, soft, healthy-looking results

Mask creates rich, balanced tones with a luxurious finish — without the dryness often associated with traditional color.

A New Colour: Ammonia-Free Luxury

For clients who want the gentlest possible permanent color, A New Colour provides full performance with maximum comfort.

Benefits

  • Ammonia-free
  • Nourishing vegetable lipids
  • Gentle on sensitive scalps
  • Beautiful gray coverage
