A suitable colour formula provides up to 100% grey coverage, while pure American pigment helps maintain colour intensity. In the Keraglycol complex, keratin helps maintain hair structure while propylene glycol reduces moisture loss during colouring. Hair stays soft and is easier to comb.
The natural base is designed for even, lasting coverage, including on grey hair. A formula suited to the percentage of grey hair can achieve up to 100% coverage; an accurate colour-to-developer ratio is important for resistant grey hair. The base can also be used in an individual mixture with a tonal shade.
Keratin and propylene glycol are combined in the Keraglycol complex: keratin helps maintain hair structure, while propylene glycol helps retain moisture during colouring. This combination helps keep hair soft and makes detangling easier after the service. Pure American pigment is used for colour stability and longevity. The formula has a low ammonia content.
Permanent hair colour and tonal options
Shade 5N (neutral light chestnut) complements the professional cream colour palette and can be combined with its other shades.
Product and applications
ABSOLUK Hair Color 5N is a professional permanent cream colour in the natural base group. The selected shade is neutral light chestnut. This base can be used for grey coverage and for creating suitable colour mixtures.
What does this product help with?
The natural base is intended for grey coverage and a neutral tonal result. This shade group can achieve up to 100% grey coverage with a formula suited to hair condition and the percentage of grey. The natural base can also be combined with tonal shades.
Key ingredients and how the formula works
- Keraglycol complex — a combination of keratin and propylene glycol to help maintain hair structure and moisture during colouring.
- Keratin is part of the conditioning system and helps maintain hair structure.
- Propylene glycol in the complex helps retain moisture; the formula helps keep hair soft and makes combing easier.
- Pure American pigment is selected for colour stability and longevity.
The conditioning action of Keraglycol helps preserve hair structure and reduce moisture loss during colouring. This makes hair easier to detangle after the service and helps retain its softness; the pigment creates the colour and helps maintain its longevity. These ingredient functions complement each other within one cream colour formula.
Key features
- Professional oxidative cream hair colour with keratin.
- Shade: 5N — neutral light chestnut.
- Volume: 100 ml.
- For use within the ABSOLUK colouring system.
- Up to 100% grey coverage with a suitable natural-base colour formula.
How to use
Assess the percentage of grey and choose standard or enhanced coverage. The different 1:1.5 and 1:1 ratios are intended for different grey-coverage situations; weigh both components in grams.
Application steps
- Select the shade and developer according to the starting hair colour, percentage of grey and desired result. When using tonal shades on grey hair, combine them with a suitable natural base.
- For standard grey coverage with a natural base, use a 1:1.5 ratio with 20 VOL (6%) or 30 VOL (9%) developer. For example, weigh 50 g of colour and 75 g of developer.
- Mix to a smooth consistency and apply with a brush. The approximate processing time for this service is 30–40 minutes; check coverage at 30 minutes.
- For resistant grey hair with a natural base, a 1:1 ratio and a processing time of 30–40 minutes may be used. Select the ratio according to the service.
- At the end of the processing time, emulsify with water and rinse thoroughly. Use Color Protect shampoo and mask afterwards to maintain colour intensity, shine and moisture.
Before use, read and follow the application and safety instructions on the product packaging. Carry out the specified sensitivity test. Wear protective gloves during the professional service.
Accurate measuring and thorough mixing
Weigh the colour and developer rather than estimating by eye. Use a colouring bowl and brush to mix both components to a smooth consistency. The colour quantity means the total weight of the selected colour mixture, including the natural base and any other shades used.
Mixing examples for specific services
- Standard coverage when grey hair makes up less than 50%: 50 g of the selected natural base + 75 g of Oxidant Cream 20 VOL (6%) or 30 VOL (9%), a 1:1.5 ratio; 30–40 minutes.
- For resistant grey hair when grey hair makes up more than 70%: 65 g of natural base + 65 g of suitably selected 20 VOL (6%) or 30 VOL (9%) developer, a 1:1 ratio; 30–40 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, assess grey coverage to determine the remaining time within the selected 30–40 minute interval.
Maintaining colour after the service
After colouring, Color Protect shampoo and mask help maintain colour intensity, shine and moisture in the hair. This care is intended both for the day of colouring and for ongoing use at home; follow the instructions for the relevant care product when choosing the amount and how long to leave it on.

The main product collections are permanent colour, Technicals, Diagnostic and Style+Care. This structure makes it easier to select products for a particular goal: maintaining colour, caring for chemically treated hair, defining natural curls or creating a fuller-looking style.
What is Absoluk known for?
Permanent Hair Color Cream features Keraglycol technology. The manufacturer associates this technology with protecting the hair and scalp during colouring, as well as improving softness and making detangling easier. Colour and developer selection should take account of the hair’s starting condition, the intended result and the individual product instructions.
The care collections address different needs. Blonde hair may require yellow-tone neutralisation, coloured hair may need colour maintenance, and chemically treated lengths may benefit from care focused on softness, flexibility and manageability.
