All codes represent the same level (6) and reflect (golden). Chemical formulation differs between brands — results may vary slightly.

Level 6 Golden: what it means

Level 6 corresponds to a dark blonde on the universal colorimetry scale (1 = black, 10 = lightest blonde). It measures the lightness or darkness of hair, independent of the reflect.

The golden (.3) reflect adds warmth and luminosity. It creates a sun-kissed, natural effect that flatters warm skin undertones. One of the most requested reflects because it adds dimension and shine without being excessive.

Each brand codes level and reflect differently. The table above shows how the major professional brands name this same shade: level 6, golden reflect.

Questions about level 6 golden

Brand equivalences

Each brand uses its own naming system. For example, a level 6 golden is 6G in Anti-Aging Permanent Liqui-Creme, 6.3 in Evolution of the Color, 6G in Topchic, NG@6 in Elumen, 6NG in LumiShine Permanent Creme Color, 6G in Permanent Color, 6.32 in Color System, 6.3 in Majirel, 6.3 in Dia Light / Dia Color, 6.3 in INOA, 6G in The Color, 6G in The Color XG, 6.3 in ChromaSilk, 6-3 in FACTION8 Permanent Color, 06G in Shades EQ Gloss, 6NG in Color Gels Lacquers, 6Gi in Chromatics, 6NGc in Cover Fusion, 6.3 in Revlonissimo Colorsmetique, 6,3 in Salermvison, 6-5 in Igora Royal, 6-46 in Igora Vibrance, 6-50 in Igora Royal Absolutes, 6-46 in Igora Zero Amm, 6/3 in Koleston Perfect ME+, 6/3 in Color Touch, 6NW in Color Charm Permanent Liquid, 6.3 in Yellow Color. Although codes differ, they all represent the same level and reflect.

Level and reflect equivalences are a useful reference, but not identical. Each brand has its own chemical formulation, pigments and technology. Two "equivalent" codes will produce similar but not identical results. Factors like natural base, porosity and color history affect the final outcome.

Generally yes. If you maintain the same level and reflect, the result will be very similar. However, a strand test is recommended when switching brands for the first time, as formulation differences can produce slightly different nuances.
