How do I use Wella Color renew Activator Liquid - 500ml?
Mix one sachet of Crystal Powder (9 g) with 90 ml Wella Color renew Activator Liquid - 500ml. This is the Activator Liquid to Crystal Powder ratio recommended by Wella: 1 to 10.
Stir the mixture well until smooth.
Apply the mixture to dry or wet hair and distribute evenly.
Leave on for the recommended processing time.
Rinse hair thoroughly afterwards with water only.
For an even application, the Color Application Bottle is a handy addition. It helps you apply the mixture precisely so each strand is well coated.
Why does Wella Renew Activator Liquid work so well?
Wella Renew Activator Liquid works with Crystal Powder using VC2 technology. Citric acid plays a key role: it helps reduce oxidative colour molecules in your hair while keeping hair structure intact.
The peroxide-free formula ensures your hair isn’t further damaged or lightened. You see the colour fade, but your own natural hair colour stays the same.
Should the Activator Liquid be mixed with another product?
Yes, Wella Color renew Activator Liquid - 500ml only works combined with Crystal Powder. On its own, the liquid has no colour-correcting effect. So make sure you have both products before you start. The Color Renew Crystal Powder is the matching set of sachets you need.
How does Wella Color Renew Activator work? Does it lighten natural hair colour?
No, Wella Color Renew Activator only reduces applied oxidative colour. Your own natural hair colour is not lightened. The system specifically reverses a perManente colour treatment that didn’t give the desired result. It’s not a bleach or standard colour remover: it reduces the colour molecules from oxidative dye in your hair without further damaging it.
Do you rinse out the product after use?
Yes, rinse hair thoroughly with water after the processing time. Use only water for rinsing, no shampoo immediately afterwards unless the protocol states otherwise. Proper rinsing ensures the formula is fully removed and leaves your hair clean.
Who is Wella Renew Activator Liquid best for?
Wella Renew Activator Liquid is the right choice if you want to correct a perManente oxidative hair colour that is too dark, too intense, or just not what you wanted. Use it to reduce colour without recolouring or bleaching your hair.
If you want to protect your hair after bleaching or chemical treatment, the Blondor Plex N°2 Bond Stabilizer is a better choice. It focuses on strengthening hair bonds after bleach, not on correcting colour.
Wella Color renew Activator Liquid - 500ml is specifically for reversing an overly intense or unwanted colour: a targeted solution, not a cure-all. Not sure if this is right for your hair? Send a message to info@haarspullen.nl and we’ll help you out.
