IGORA ROYAL 's mission is to empower us as hairdressers , and it achieves this with a very good range of permanent hair dyes.
Benefits of Igora Royal
- The resulting color is true to the color chart.
- The pigment retention is total (also super important to maintain customer confidence).
- and a wide variety so you can get exactly what they're asking for or just the shade you know will look great.
If you've been using the brand before, you'll notice the packaging has changed (we'll talk about it later, but they've made it much more sustainable). The formula remains the same trusted formula.

Absolutes for mature hair seeking 100% coverage
In Igora's classic color chart there is variety for everyone , from the most prudent to the most daring, and, as we have already said, one of the things we like most about the brand (besides durability) is that it doesn't deceive: the shade you choose is the one you will see as the final result.
Ready to feel the brand's energy and be the colorist you want to be ?
The absolutes.
Grab a pen and paper if you haven't heard of them yet. These shades are specially designed to cover white and gray hair , with a pro-age enriched formula , which means that while achieving the desired color, they also help combat the signs of aging (lack of elasticity or shine, rough and brittle texture, etc.) , leaving hair soft and shiny.
Aimed at lighter bases, between shades 7 and 9 , they provide trendy shades from cool beige to brown or copper.
Highlifts and other specials
IGORA ROYAL Highlifts 12-0 Super Lightening Natural Hair Color.
The super-lightening color lightens up to 4-5 shades and contains integrated Fibrebond Technology.
As stated on the packaging: “IGORA ROYAL Highlifts is the first super-lightening hair color with Fibre Bond Technology* integrated into the color cream. During the lightening process, IGORA ROYAL High Definition Technology and Fibre Bond Technology simultaneously lighten and protect to create cool pigment combinations that result in mesmerizing silver blondes .” The 10-series is formulated with a higher concentration of pigments to lighten up to 4 levels on a level 7 base and allows for a 1:1 mixing ratio. The 12-series achieves up to 5 levels of lightening on a level 6 or lighter base with a 1:2 mixing ratio.
The "specialties" section includes IGORA ROYAL Fashion dyes, for the most fashionable and daring highlights.
Another plus: the IGORA color chart comes in sustainable packaging
Another of the brand's highlights is the effort it has put into sustainability to reduce its global footprint with packaging that maximizes the amount of recycled materials, raising it to 100% in the case of the tube and cap and up to 92% in the box.
Up to 100% gray hair coverage with great color intensity
Let's get technical: IGORA ROYAL contains a high-definition pigment matrix that provides a sharp, high-intensity color direction, maximum coverage, and those results that are so true to the color chart that we have been discussing.
Other ingredients called carrier lipids maximize pigment penetration and seal in color, protecting intensity and maintaining a beautiful appearance for longer.
