FAQ
Can I use 10SM Silver Metallic on naturally dark hair?
It is best used on pre-lightened or pre-toned hair for optimal results. On naturally dark hair, it may not produce the desired silver finish without prior lightening.
How should I apply the Silver Metallic to achieve a true steel finish?
Apply after pre-toning or lightening, and ensure even distribution. Use a small amount and blend thoroughly for a natural, dimensional steel effect.
Can I mix 10SM Silver Metallic with other shades?
Yes, it can be blended with other shades to create a smokey or gradient effect.

The silver finish is very true to tone, especially after pre-toning. It neutralizes yellow tones perfectly and gives a cool, steel look. Easy to apply and blends well with other shades.
Piers Hill –
Great for adding dimension to highlights. The blue-violet base makes the silver look more natural and not too shiny. Works best when used after lightening.
Sonia Brown –
I used it on my pre-toned hair and got a stunning steel finish. The color is long-lasting and the application is smooth. No patchiness or unevenness.
Sebastian Terry –
It works well, but I had to use a lot to get a visible effect. Not as strong as expected on naturally dark hair. Might need pre-lightening for best results.
