A Dual System That Works Smarter
Permanent & Quasi Colour — Simplified
Quint:essential is a 2-in-1 colour system:
- Use with Quint:essential Developer for permanent colour
- Use with Quint:essential Quasi Developer for a 16–20 wash quasi result
No need for a separate demi system — meaning:
- Lower stock holding
- Faster formulation
- Greater flexibility behind the chair
- Perfect for colour refreshing ends, always a seamless match
Pre-Bonded Colour Technology
Powered by MAGI:BOND®
Every Quint:essential shade is pre-bonded with Magi:Bond®, protecting the internal hair structure during the chemical process.
The result?
- Improved hair strength
- Maintained elasticity
- Improved colour retention
- Consistent colour integrity over time
Bond protection is no longer an add-on — it’s built in.
The Quint:Amine Complex
Advanced Care, Engineered Into Colour
At the heart of Quint:essential is the Quint:Amine Complex — a powerful blend of five targeted ingredients that actively care for the hair during colouring. What it delivers:
- Enhanced shine
- Deep nourishment
- A protective moisture barrier
- Smoothness and revitalisation
Key ingredients:
- Hydrolysed Quinoa – Strengthens and locks in colour vibrancy
- N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) – Protects bonds, supports internal hair structure and moisture retention
- Phyto Ceramides – Mimic natural lipids for shine, softness and protection
- Soybean Isoflavones – Nourishes the hair with anti-oxidant properties, improving hair’s suppleness and condition.
- Aloe Vera – Moisturises and conditions throughout the colour process
Pre-Blended for Confidence
Reliable Grey Coverage, Without Guesswork
Quint:essential features a pre-blended base + tone formula, allowing you to:
- Achieve up to 50% white hair coverage without adding base
- Maintain tonal purity
- Work faster with fewer formulation steps
For hair with over 50% white, simply mix 1:1 with a +Cover-Age shade for flawless, predictable coverage.
Pre-Adjusted for True-to-Tone Results
Neutralise Warmth Automatically
Every Quint:essential shade contains pre-adjusted tones designed to counteract underlying pigment during lift.
This means:
- Cleaner blondes
- Balanced brunettes
- Less corrective mixing
- Consistent results from roots to ends
Pre-adjusted technology is built into:
- Natural
- Cool
- Warm
- Mocha
- +Cover-Age collections
Micro-Dye Technology
Longer-Lasting Colour. Less Fade.
Quint:essential uses micro colour molecules that:
- Penetrate faster and deeper
- Lock into the hair fibre
- Resist fading
- Maintain vibrancy wash after wash
Clients see richer colour that lasts — you see better retention and rebooking.
