Heads up: Dia Light / Dia Color is a demi color and Color Gels Lacquers is permanent. Coverage, longevity and the final result will differ: adjust the service, not just the shade.
How to read the match: Exact = same level and same reflect · Close = same level, same reflect family · Approximate = same level in natural, or adjacent level with the same reflect. Hover each badge for that row's reason.
Of the 90 Dia Light / Dia Color shades, 18 exact, 41 close and 31 approximate in this chart with Color Gels Lacquers. For example, Dia Light / Dia Color's 6 maps to Color Gels Lacquers's 6NN. Natural reflects cross over best; other reflects ones need more adjustment.
Dia Light / Dia Color writes the reflect with a dot (7.1 = ash blonde); Color Gels Lacquers uses a double-letter family after the level (5NW = natural warm, NN = natural natural, NA = natural ash). The level (1-10) stays the same; what changes when converting is how the reflect is written.
