MATRIX SoColor Pre-Bonded bond-protecting permanent hair colour 506NV, 90 ml
Covers grey hair even when the proportion of grey is high or the hair resists colouring, helping achieve rich, even root colour. Citric acid and glycine help protect hair bonds during colouring. Pre-balanced base and tonal pigments help maintain the chosen colour's depth.
MATRIX SoColor Pre-Bonded 506NV belongs to the Extra Coverage shade group for grey coverage. It evenly colours grey hair and maintains colour intensity at the roots, where the contrast between pigmented and grey hair is most visible. This group uses 6% cream developer at a 1:1 mixing ratio.
The citric acid and glycine complex helps protect hair bonds during colouring, while the oil-containing base leaves hair feeling softer and better conditioned. Bond protection is built into the colour, so a separate additive is unnecessary. This conditioning approach matters when the goal is lasting tone together with suppleness and shine after the service.
A high proportion of grey or resistant grey hair requires a shade group designed for that task. The Extra Coverage collection creates rich permanent colour, taking account of grey percentage, hair structure and the chosen shade.
MATRIX SoColor Pre-Bonded 506NV is a permanent hair colour for precise colouring and creating the desired shade.
Choose colour according to the natural base, previous colouring and grey percentage. SoColor shade groups have different mixing and processing requirements, so formula selection must account for the specific shade and colouring task.
Permanent hair colour: key benefits
- Permanent colouring for lasting tone.
- Pre-Bonded technology is built into the colour formula.
- Pre-balanced base and tonal pigments help create the desired colour.
- Professional system for root and full-length colouring.
Who is this hair colour suitable for?
For professional use with shade 506NV. Before colouring, assess the starting base, previous treatments and porosity. The final tone depends on the starting hair colour and application technique.
How to use
Before mixing, assess the starting base, grey percentage and desired result. Mix with the MATRIX Cream Developer specified for the shade, following the ratio and processing time on the tube or enclosed instructions. Apply using professional colouring techniques and rinse thoroughly after processing. Wear suitable gloves and perform the allergy test specified on the packaging before each colouring service.
Practical application guidance
- Before preparing the mixture, determine grey percentage and the boundaries of the root area to be coloured. Use MATRIX Cream Developer 6% for Extra Coverage; do not choose another strength simply to increase lift.
- For root retouches, thoroughly saturate the regrowth first. Choose a separately adjusted colour or toning formula to refresh previously coloured lengths, so their intensity is not determined solely by the needs of grey roots.
- Mix Extra Coverage colour 1:1 with MATRIX Cream Developer 6%; for example, 45 g of colour with 45 ml of developer.
- Evenly saturate the root area and follow the full processing time specified on the pack. Adequate mixture quantity and precise application are particularly important for grey coverage.

- Citric acid and glycine — components of the updated Pre-Bonded complex that help protect hair bonds during colouring.

Product story
SoColor Pre-Bonded combines two colouring tasks: creating lasting tone and protecting hair structure during the service. The series gives stylists a predictable foundation for colour work. Pre-balanced base tone and tonal nuance help create the chosen result, while Pre-Bonded technology is already included in the formula and becomes part of the colouring process itself.
This approach keeps attention on each service's individual factors: natural base, existing colour, grey percentage and desired tone. Permanent colour supports both root colouring and changes throughout the lengths. In the SoColor professional system, formula selection and precise application work together for carefully considered colour at every stage. The stylist determines the intended result, and the colour technology helps achieve it.

About MATRIX
MATRIX is a professional hair brand founded in the USA in 1980 by hairdressers Arnie and Sydell Miller. Its heritage centres on salon work: haircare, colouring and styling, alongside education for professionals. The brand develops products for salon services and for home care between appointments.
What is MATRIX known for?
MATRIX organises its ranges around specific hair needs. Dryness, a rough hair surface, damage and unwanted warm tones call for different approaches. Choose a product by considering your hair's texture, current condition and desired result, as well as whether it has been coloured.
A routine can progress from cleansing and conditioning to more intensive care and styling. When combining products, consider the purpose of each step: cleansing, detangling, additional care or shaping the hairstyle. Follow the individual product's directions and adjust the amount to suit your hair.
MATRIX products and key ranges
Cleansing and everyday care
Shampoos form the starting point, while hair conditioners care for the lengths after washing. For more intensive care, consider hair masks. Check whether each product is designed to be rinsed out or left in, and which needs it addresses.
Food For Soft and Instacure Build-A-Bond
Food For Soft targets dry hair with formulas featuring avocado oil and hyaluronic acid. Instacure Build-A-Bond addresses damaged hair with citric acid and squalane. Choose between these ranges according to whether your main concern is dryness or damage.
Mega Sleek and A Curl Can Dream
Mega Sleek focuses on smoothing and frizz control. A Curl Can Dream includes care and styling products for curls and coils, with dedicated products for waves. Choose according to whether you want a smoother finish or more definition in your natural curl pattern.
So Silver and Brass Off
So Silver helps neutralise yellow tones in blonde and grey hair. Brass Off targets unwanted orange tones in lightened hair. Choose a toning product to match the unwanted tone and follow its recommended application time.
Who are MATRIX products for?
MATRIX products suit hairdressers and anyone who wants a home routine tailored to their hair type. Start with your main concern and choose a corresponding range. If your hair needs both hydration and tone correction, a hairdresser can help you decide how often to use each product and how to combine the steps.
