INOA vs Regular Hair Color — Which One Is Right for You?

Both cover grays and change tone, but INOA and standard hair color work very differently on the hair shaft.

D' Scissors Team

Choosing between INOA and our standard Hair Color service comes down to how your hair reacts to ammonia and how much grey coverage you need.

Standard Hair Color

  • Faster processing time
  • Great for full color changes and vivid tones
  • Best for clients without sensitive scalps

INOA

  • Ammonia-free formula — gentler on the scalp and hair fiber
  • Excellent grey coverage with a more natural finish
  • Slightly longer processing time, worth it for sensitive scalps

Our recommendation

For a first-time client or anyone with scalp sensitivity, we usually recommend starting with INOA.

During your consultation we'll check your hair's current condition and grey percentage before

confirming which service — and which size tier (S/M/L/SL) — fits your hair length.
