All codes represent the same level (8) and reflect (copper). Chemical formulation differs between brands — results may vary slightly.

Level 8 Copper: what it means

Level 8 corresponds to a light blonde on the universal colorimetry scale (1 = black, 10 = lightest blonde). It measures the lightness or darkness of hair, independent of the reflect.

The copper (.4) reflect is the most intense in the warm family. It adds orange-red tones that create dimension and vibrancy. Very on-trend ("copper" is one of the most searched colors) but requires more maintenance than neutral reflects.

Each brand codes level and reflect differently. The table above shows how the major professional brands name this same shade: level 8, copper reflect.

Questions about level 8 copper

Brand equivalences

Each brand uses its own naming system. For example, a level 8 copper is 8NRG in Anti-Aging Permanent Liqui-Creme, 8.4 in Evolution of the Color, 8K in Topchic, 8K in Colorance, 8NC in LumiShine Permanent Creme Color, 8C in Permanent Color, 8C in The Color XG, 8-4 in FACTION8 Permanent Color, 08C in Shades EQ Gloss, 8WG in Color Gels Lacquers, 8.4 in Revlonissimo Colorsmetique, 8,4 in Salermvison, 8-77 in Igora Royal, 8RG in Color Charm Permanent Liquid, 8.41 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.
