Heads up: Shades EQ Gloss is a demi color and INOA 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 124 Shades EQ Gloss shades, 51 exact, 53 close and 20 approximate in this chart with INOA. For example, Shades EQ Gloss's 06AA maps to INOA's 6.46. Golden reflects cross over best; matte ones need more adjustment.
Shades EQ Gloss writes the reflect with the tonal-family letter after a zero-padded level (07N = natural, V = violet, NB = natural beige); INOA uses a dot (7.1 = ash blonde). The level (1-10) stays the same; what changes when converting is how the reflect is written.
