Semi permanent or demi permanent hair color?

A semi and a demi permanent hair color walk into a bar and the bartender asks them: “Hey, what is the difference between you two?”.

Actually, being able to give your customers the hair color they want is NO JOKE. So, we’re going to cut to the chase here and explain what is the difference between demi and semi permanent hair color and which one is the best.

Difference between demi permanent and semi permanent hair color

From our experience, there’s still a lot of misunderstanding and misconception regarding the difference between demi and semi permanent hair color, and which one is best. So, let’s dive into their features and differences.

DEMI PERMANENT HAIR COLOR
Demi permanent hair color

Demi permanent hair dye is slightly less permanent than a regular permanent hair dye. It usually lasts up to 2 weeks and it requires a developer, or a low level of peroxide, to be activated.

 

It manipulates natural hair enough to darken it, although it does not lighten hair, like permanent hair dye does. It can also penetrate the hair shaft enough to blend grey hairs.

SEMI PERMANENT HAIR COLOR

Semi permanent hair dye is a temporary hair color that adds shine or changes tone without lightening or darkening the hair.

 

The main difference between semi permanent and demi permanent hair color is that the former adds dye only to the surface of the hair, while the latter penetrates the hair shaft to change the hair color.

 

Semi permanent hair color doesn’t require any developer or activator - which is why it’s ammonia free - and it usually fades out after 8 to 10 shampoos. it’s great for short-term color changes: for example, if one was trying to decide whether or not to go red, a semi permanent hair dye would be a great option to figure that out with no regret. However, semi permanent hair color will not provide greys coverage. Sorry.

Demi vs semi permanent hair color: which one’s the best?

Well, there is no best one per se. In fact, demi permanent and semi permanent hair color are equally great and one is “better” than the other one only when it comes to a specific need.

 

Demi permanent hair color is best for anyone looking to blend grays, refresh their existing color, tone highlights, or refresh faded ends.

 

On the other hand, semi permanent hair color is best for everyone who wants to maintain their hair color in between hair salon visits. It can keep blondes from going yellow, reds from looking dull, and brunettes from becoming oxidized and brassy.
