Who usually asks for this talk-track

Tone family guidance below is editorial only; a colorist will map it to your current level and porosity.

Editorial note: suitability depends on your starting level, undertone, porosity, and prior color. This is general community/editorial guidance, not a prescription.

How to ask your colorist

  1. “I’d like a Shades EQ gloss close to 010NW Iced Piña.”
  2. “My target level talk-track is around level 10 with a natural warm reflect.”
  3. “Can we strand-test first and adjust warmth after we see the undertone?”

Bring a few reference photos and say whether you want cooler, warmer, or more neutral than the photo. Your colorist may adjust with nearby chart neighbors rather than using 010NW alone.

FAQ

Is 010NW permanent hair color?

Shades EQ is typically positioned as a demi-permanent gloss/toner system in salon use. Longevity still varies with porosity, shampoo, and heat habits.

Can I buy the tube and do this at home?

Professional color is safest in trained hands. Misreading level or undertone is a common DIY failure mode. If you DIY anyway, follow the manufacturer’s instructions exactly—we won’t invent ratios here.

What does the letter in 010NW mean?

On this chart, the letters after the level mark the tone family (for 010NW, that family is Natural Warm). Letters are a map for pros, not a guarantee of the finished photo on your hair.
