Why I Love the NEW iNOA
The most professional luxurious colour experience powered by oil and personalised with tech can now boast an upgraded product as well as a unique hair tech diagnosis.
Originally launched in 2009, iNOA by L’Oréal Professionnel was a true pioneer of no-ammonia hair colour.
It is the ultimate ‘love brand’ by hairdressers and consumers alike with research showing the ‘No Ammonia’ experience, Oil delivery system, oil-based formula, unique colour result, white hair coverage, development time and 1+1 mixing ratio makes it stand out as the #1 top-of-mind ammonia free brand that offers no comparison on colour performance.
What has changed, to make even better however, is the new vegan formula**, no additive waxes, ODS technology (60% oil- based formula), no odour, easier and faster application, up to 100% grey coverage with lively & true-to-tone result, 48% shinier hair*** and reinforced scalp hydration by +20%****
Recent research concludes that 25% of consumers would be more likely to choose a salon if they used ammonia-free hair colour and 22% of consumers would be willing to pay more for their haircolour service if the products were ammoniafree and odourless!
With that in mind at the recent L’Oréal Professionnel artistic conference, artists got their hands on the NEW iNOA, trialling the product and working on hair.
