COMPRIS GIVES YOU SUPERIOR RESULTS EVERY TIME.

COLIBRICHROMA PIGMENT TECHNOLOGY WE ALL ADMIRE THE PALETTE of hummingbirds and their shimmering, brightly colored feathers. It’s not because the actual feather is colored red, green or blue. It’s the way the feather takes ordinary white light and reflects it in a certain way, creating the illusion of a colored surface. The light is bounced off the feather’s surface and layers deeper within the structure. The tiny difference in the reflection time as it reaches your eye creates this rich and vibrant color.

Compris has harnessed this phenomenon with it’s color pigments. Part of the light reflects off your client’s hair surface, but another part bounces from the bottom of the pigment to create an exceptionally bright and radiant shimmer of color.

Compris chemists have created the perfect process to ensure all

pigment is oxidized completely.

You will reduce sensitivity on your client’s scalp and allergic reactions, even with higher level developers, because no unprocessed pigment will be left in your client’s hair.

PYRAZOL PIGMENT: The red pigments in Compris last up to 10 times longer than comparable direct pigment due to it’s molecular size and shape. This means richer, deeper tones for your clients that last and last. The thorough development process give clear, true pigment colors for the most vibrant result possible. You get a solid, undiluted finish without side note colors or casts.

IT MEANS COLOR WILL BE TRUE TO YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
