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 95 INOA shades, 30 exact, 47 close and 18 approximate in this chart with Igora Royal. For example, INOA's 6 maps to Igora Royal's 6-0. Natural reflects cross over best; other reflects ones need more adjustment.
INOA writes the reflect with a dot (7.1 = ash blonde); Igora Royal uses a dash (7-1 = medium ash blonde). The level (1-10) stays the same; what changes when converting is how the reflect is written.
