"As hairdressers, we don't just create color – we preserve the hair's quality. Metal DX eliminates metal particles, provides more even color, and strengthens the hair. A game changer for the industry that every hairdresser should be using!"

"My best tips and tricks for Dia Light are to dare to use the palette; there are so many different shades. Dare to use it to create depth in the hair, but also for lighter results - and dare to let the shade sit in the hair before washing!"
