Description
The DCM Developer 40 Vol 12% 150ml is a powerful professional developer lotion that delivers maximum lightening and deep color penetration. Specially developed for use with DCM Diapason hair dye, its balanced formula also makes it suitable for use with other professional color products. At 12% (40 Vol), this developer offers the strongest oxidation in the range and is perfect for intense blondes, dramatic color shifts, and techniques where clarity and strength are paramount.
What makes this developer special is its alcohol- and lanolin-based emulsion . This formula intensely hydrates hair during the coloring process, protects the hair fibers, and provides a silky-smooth finish. Lanolin is known for its conditioning and softening properties and helps keep hair supple and shiny despite the strong chemical effects of high-lift treatments.
The stable emulsion ensures excellent mixability and even distribution of pigments. This creates a bright, long-lasting, and even color result that is deeply embedded in the hair fiber—significantly extending the life of the color.
The compact 150ml packaging is ideal for small treatments, touch-ups, travel kits or for stylists who need variety without large amounts of product.
