HOW TO USE

1. Mix 1 oz. Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute shade with 1 oz. 20 Volume Pro-Oxide Cream Developer. Adjust quantity of color and developer as needed while maintaining 1:1 mixing ratio.

2. When mixed, the formula will react with the developer, so apply promptly to the hair.

3. Process for 10 minutes. Rinse color using preferred Redken shampoo and conditioner.

4. Smart Pause Technology will help stop pigment from depositing 10 minutes after being mixed with the developer. We recommend removing color from hair within 15 minutes.

For stylists who do slower applications we recommend the following four tips:
  •  Apply the color on hair with higher percentage of white first.
  • If you take 10 minutes to apply, only process the color for 5 minutes after complete application.
  • Apply color in quadrants. Begin at the nape and work from the back two quadrants to the front two quadrants. Once the back quadrants are complete, set your timer for 10 minutes and then continue with the application of the front two quadrants. The difference between the two quadrants will be 5 minutes but each half of the head will be processed for 10 minutes. This will ensure a more uniform end color result.
  • Apply Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute with a bottle. Its liquid formula allows for express application.

Not so sure…

a year ago
I’m struggling with this color line!! I need some answers! I love the 10 minute processing time, but it seems like the colors fade into this awful gold hue…and it’s not pretty…I see it more with the lighter levels but even my level 5 clients come back and I can see a weird red or gold glow. They color doesn’t last as long and you can’t let it process longer or it goes to dark!! I was really excited about this product, but I think it might be a flop, if I can’t figure out how to get better results!!

No, I do not recommend this product.

MUST HAVE CLEAN HAIR!!

a year ago
When using this product, I know it’s an extra step but I will do a really good shampoo right before I put the product in, let my hair dry, and apply the color (mixing 15-18 of the grey coverage drops). I let it process usually for 18 min even though it says 10. When I rinse out, I do a very light shampoo just to get the color out (my hair is already clean) and conditioner mid shaft to ends. I know the first shampoo is an extra step but it does make a difference. Hope this helps!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Run don't walk away from this

11 months ago
OMG. I tried for the first time on myself thank goodness. 8na turned out level 4. If this happened on a client I would have died. Its also not ashy, it's more warm than cool. I've ruined my hair with this product and will never be using the 10 minute gels again. The regular gels are great.

No, I do not recommend this product.

  • My hair was previously a level 6 with blonde highlights

Way too dark

If I could put zero stars I would, I used 6nch and 7nn and turned almost black. Now I'm out money and have to do a color correction and replace a client's extensions. Not cool!!!

No, I do not recommend this product.

Go lighter or you’ll regret it!

a year ago
The newer bottles are WAY DARK. I used my same formula on my client (9N and 8N) and it turned out like a 6-7. I had to do a Malibu and a blonding session to fix. Nightmare! Something changed because previous color session was perfect. Ugh!!!

8nn 10 min

4 years ago
Used 7n on my first time using it on a level 6. Was dark, so I next time went to 8nn. Whoa that was way to red. And really not that much lighter, thinking you are now in the blondes. I understand n’s to be neutral with a bit more of gold in it. This was to dark and to red. In another line it would be much lighter. If your levels are that dark you need to go up into the 10’s to get into good blondes. Loved the coverage and timing but level wise very bad. Could not find a color swatch of any of the new 10 min.

Yes, I recommend this product.

LOVE

3 years ago
I absolutely love this product! I only do a half to full shade lighter and start processing time when I'm finished applying, and begin with hairline/stubborn areas first. It is a bit more messy but hoping thickening drops will help. A protective barrier for the hairline is a huge aid. I'm hoping there will be more colors coming soon?? Reds?? Please??

Yes, I recommend this product.

Not Good

4 years ago
I used 6NA on a level 5 with 50%gray only did the top and sides just to try it and all I got was a Smokey colored gray hairs. Absolutely did not cover at all. It’s med course hair. Mixed 1-1 started time when I first applied took off at 10 mins. Did I do something wrong? I’m scared to try it again.

Hey there! We appreciate your review of Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute. This non-aerosol dry shampoo powder absorbs oil and provides light, clean volume. Here is a usage tip that may help you with the excess at the root area. Shake gently at the roots and massage into hair and scalp. Brush through to remove any excess.

I used this product on one client. 6abn. It worked as it says. Only thing I noticed was that because it process so fast, the color shows up quicker and was a bit messy for me. But Im sure that is different with every stylist. will be using again!

Yes, I recommend this product.

I was so excited when I had heard of this new technology and color line. I will be honest, it took some getting used to. There are many quirks to adapt to, especially if you are a Redken user. The colors do not line up like you would think. The N and NN line are warm, in the 10 min Gel Line. I pull red when I use them. So even though there aren't any red colors yet, this is how I get around that. I have increased my client base and decreased my hours now that I have this line. It is wonderful. My clients rave about the experience. This age is all about what we can provide to the Guest Experience and make it better! Giving our client back their time is one major way to do that. One review I kept seeing over and over about this line was the color left a line on the clients face (stain). Solution: I save the brush (with color still on it) and at the bowl go back over the hairline and re-wet it with the color and rinse immediately. It leaves no line of demarcation on their forehead. The beautiful thing about Color Gels is the flawless color and application method. I was using the wrong ratio at first 1:2 and that was working great to cover the Greys just the same. This line is just amazing no matter what way you work it. You just can't make it wrong. I broke the rules by accident and still got it right. #Redkenalltheway

Yes, I recommend this product.
