FAQ

Q1) What are Special Reds in the Tocco Magico Color-Ton Permanent line?
Special Reds refer to the red-leaning permanent hair color shades in the Tocco Magico Color-Ton collection, designed to deliver vibrant red, fashion red, or tropical red tones with long-lasting pigment and professional finish. 

Typical examples include:

• Tocco Magico Color-Ton Permanent 7FR Fashion Red — rich fashion red.

• Tocco Magico Color-Ton Permanent 8FR Tropical Red — warmer tropical red.

• Tocco Magico Color-Ton Permanent R‑0.66 Pure Pigment‑Deep Red — deep pure red tones.
  These shades offer expressive red hues that stand out with depth and shine. 

Q2) What makes Color-Ton Permanent hair color different from other lines?
The Color-Ton Permanent system uses a rich cream base infused with a blend of seven herbal extracts to help condition, protect, and restore hair and scalp during the coloring process. It delivers 100% gray coverage, vibrant, consistent color, and superior shine. 

Q3) Who should choose Special Reds?
Ideal for clients who want bold, warm, rich red hues — whether for a striking full-head red result or to enhance natural reddish undertones. These shades are great for people seeking fashion-forward red looks with lasting vibrancy. 

Q4) Do these reds provide gray coverage?
Yes — like all Color-Ton Permanent colors, Special Reds are formulated to provide complete gray coverage, ensuring even, saturated results from roots through ends. 

Q5) How long does Special Reds color last?
These are permanent hair colors, meaning they are designed for long-lasting pigment retention, resisting wash-out and fading over time when products are properly cared for. 

Q6) What developer and mixing ratio should be used?
Color-Ton Permanent colors generally mix at a 1:1 ratio with a compatible Universal Oxy developer (appropriate volume based on desired lift/deposit). Following the brand’s instructions helps ensure predictable, salon-quality results. 

Q7) How should stylists apply Special Reds for best results?
Apply the color evenly from roots to ends on clean, towel-dried hair. Allow the color to process according to manufacturer guidelines (typically 20–45 minutes), then rinse and condition. 

Q8) Why do reds sometimes fade faster than other tones?
Red pigments are larger molecules and tend to fade more quickly with frequent washing or harsh shampoos. Recommend sulfate-free, color-protecting shampoos and conditioners, cold water rinses, and heat protection to help maintain deep red tones longer. 

Q9) Can Special Reds be used for custom color mixing?
Yes — red shades like Fashion Red and Deep Red can be mixed with other Color-Ton shades to customize tone intensity, warm/cool balance, or achieve transitional hues. Always test mix ratios for consistent results. 

Q10) What aftercare helps preserve red hair color?
Best practices include:
• Sulfate-free shampoos & conditioners
• Color locks and gloss products
• UV and heat protection
• Less frequent washing — these help reduce premature fading and keep reds vibrant between salon visits.
