Heads up: Koleston Perfect ME+ is a permanent color and Shinefinity is demi. 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 152 Koleston Perfect ME+ shades, 31 exact, 67 close and 43 approximate in this chart with Shinefinity. For example, Koleston Perfect ME+'s 6/0 maps to Shinefinity's 06/0. Natural reflects cross over best; mahogany ones need more adjustment. 11 shades have no direct equivalent in Shinefinity; those cases need a formula adjustment, not a code swap.

Questions about Koleston Perfect ME+ and Shinefinity

Common questions when converting between these brands

Of the 152 Koleston Perfect ME+ shades, 31 have an exact equivalent in Shinefinity, 67 close, 43 approximate and 11 with no direct equivalent. The level (1-10) is universal; what varies is the reflect.

No. Equivalences are approximate because each brand uses different pigments, bases, and concentrations. The level (1-10) is universal, but the reflect result may vary. We always recommend doing a strand test when switching brands.

It's not recommended. Each brand formulates its products with specific chemistry (pH, alkalizing agent, pigment system). Mixing brands can create unpredictable reactions and unwanted results. Always use color and developer from the same brand.

The tool shows you the closest available shade. If you need a very specific result, you can combine two shades from the target brand (for example, mixing a natural with an ash to get a soft ash). Blendsor calculates these mixes automatically.
