ToggleL’ORÉAL PROFESSIONNEL DIA ACTIVATEUR II 6 VOL 1.8% 1L
PRIMARY USES
1. Low-Concentration Cream Developer for Semi-Permanent Color Services
-
What it does: This 6 volume (1.8%) cream developer is specifically formulated to be mixed with L’Oréal Professionnel demi-permanent color lines including Dia Light, Dia Richesse, and Dia Color . Its low hydrogen peroxide concentration provides gentle activation that deposits color without lifting the natural hair base, making it the preferred choice for services requiring minimal to no lightening .
-
How it helps your hair: For the person with sensitized, porous, or previously treated hair, this provides a gentle coloring experience that won’t cause further damage or unwanted lift. For anyone who wants to refresh or tone their color without commitment, this means a low-risk option that respects the hair’s integrity.
2. Creates Vinyl-Like Shine and Natural Reflection
-
What it does: When paired with Dia Light or Dia Richesse, this activator enhances the final result with intense, vinyl-like shine and luminous color tones . The low-volume formula allows for pure color deposit that reflects light beautifully without the dulling effect sometimes seen with higher peroxide volumes.
-
How it helps your hair: For the person whose colored hair looks flat or lacks luster, this provides a glossy, reflective finish that makes hair appear healthier and more vibrant. For anyone wanting that “salon-fresh” shine without constant touch-ups, this means a treatment that delivers brilliant radiance.
3. Ideal for Toning and Neutralizing Unwanted Undertones
-
What it does: This developer is the professional’s choice for toning services to neutralize unwanted yellow or brassy undertones following lightening services . It can also be used to refresh existing color on lengths and ends while a permanent color is applied to the roots, ensuring a perfect match .
-
How it helps your hair: For the person who has recently had highlights or balayage and notices unwanted warmth, this provides a toning solution that corrects brassiness without further lightening. For anyone who wants to maintain cool, neutral, or ash tones between salon visits, this means a targeted correction service.
4. Gentle Formula for Sensitized and Fragile Hair
-
What it does: The low peroxide concentration (1.8%) makes this activator ideal for use on fragile, porous, or chemically treated hair, including hair that has been permed or straightened . It allows for color application on lengths and ends without risking over-processing or additional damage.
-
How it helps your hair: For the person whose hair has been compromised by previous chemical services, this provides a safe way to refresh or enhance color without causing further stress to the hair fiber. For anyone with naturally fine or delicate hair, this means a gentler coloring experience.
5. Enables Corrective Color and Pre-Coloration Techniques
-
What it does: This activator can be used for corrective color services and pre-coloration treatments, where the goal is to even out porosity or create a uniform base before permanent color application . It helps prepare the hair for more predictable results in subsequent services.
-
How it helps your hair: For the person with uneven color or porosity issues, this provides a corrective solution that creates a more uniform canvas for future coloring. For anyone who has experienced patchy or inconsistent color results, this means a preparatory step that improves overall outcomes.
6. Ammonia-Free Formula for Softer Hair Feel
-
What it does: The Dia Activateur II is designed to be used with ammonia-free color lines, ensuring that the entire coloring process is gentler on the hair fiber . The formula helps maintain softness and hair health while delivering professional color results.
-
How it helps your hair: For the person who finds traditional color services too harsh or drying, this provides an ammonia-free alternative that leaves hair feeling softer and looking healthier. For anyone with sensitive scalps or respiratory sensitivity, this means a more comfortable coloring experience.
7. Developed for Professional Use Only

-
How it helps your hair: For salons, this provides a cost-effective supply of a staple product. For the client, it means their stylist always has fresh, consistent product available for their service.
SECONDARY USES
1. Glossing and Glaze Services: Apply over natural or colored hair for 5-10 minutes to add intense shine and subtle color reflection without altering the base shade . For the person who wants a “gloss” service between color appointments, this provides a quick, low-commitment shine boost.
2. Lowlight Application: Mix with darker Dia Richesse shades to add dimension and depth to highlighted or blonde hair . For the person with highlights that need more contrast, this provides a way to add lowlights without harsh lines or damage.
3. Color Refresh on Lengths and Ends: Apply to mid-lengths and ends while a permanent color processes on the roots to refresh fading color and ensure a seamless match . For the person whose ends have faded faster than their roots, this provides an even, uniform result.
4. Balayage and Highlight Toning: Use to tone balayage, ombré, or foiled highlights for a polished, natural-looking finish . For the person with hand-painted highlights that need subtle toning, this provides a service that respects the graduated, natural effect.
5. Pre-Coloration Treatment: Apply before permanent color to even out porosity and improve color absorption on porous ends . For the person whose color turns out darker on the ends than at the roots, this provides a preparatory step that creates a more uniform canvas.
