Having great hair color doesn’t need to mean abandoning your lifestyle choices. Inspired by nature, Keune’s So Pure color line is Ammonia- and Paraben-Free, leaving your clients with a few more reasons to embrace its benefits. Now, we’ve got two more options that will have you falling in love with this line all over again. Luminous Pearl and Cover Plus are the latest collections in the range and with 6 new shades to choose from, the options are endless.

So Pure’s mild formula has both stylists and their clients falling in love with this natural range. Keep reading to understand more about what goes into them and how to utilize them on your clients.

How It Works:

Phytokeratin is a protein structure that rebuilds the hair structure. This combined with Argan Oil, Vitamin A, and E and the coconut base adds moisture that will leave hair soft, smooth and silky.

Of the shades, Keune Technical Director Amber Skrzypek said, “Grey Coverage and Blonding are two of the most in-demand services we do behind the chair. I love that we now have more options in both categories to make a stylists life easier. Cover Plus is the perfect option for 100% grey coverage. It can be used by itself to produce a rich beautiful end result, or they can be intermixed with any So Pure Natural or Fashion Shade to create a custom blended color for your guest. Luminous Pearl is an on-trend range that can be used for toning or lifting. I love using them as a low light on already blonde hair to create a multidimensional end result.”

The New Shades:

So Pure Luminous Pearl

The popularity of Pearl has gone from a trend to a movement and is now a staple in hair color ranges. By nature, pearl is a multifaceted color that can contains small hints of other colors within its luminescence.
