About Revlon Professional
Revlon Professional is the salon-only division of the iconic American beauty brand, internationally known for its colour and care products developed for use by professional colourists. The Revlonissimo Color Excel range is a "demi-permanent" line, designed to deposit colour and add shine without lifting natural hair tones — sitting between a semi-permanent gloss and a full permanent dye.
Key features
- Demi-permanent (no-lift) colour: deposits colour and adds shine without lightening natural hair
- Tone-on-tone application: blends rather than fully covers, ideal for refreshing and adding multi-tonal warmth
- Vibrant red-violet and copper reflects: the .42 in 4.42 combines red-violet (.4 family) with copper accents for a warm finish
- Medium-brown base (level 4): suits natural medium-to-dark-brown hair
- Gentle on hair: demi-permanent formulas typically include conditioning agents and minimal ammonia
Who it's for
Best for natural medium-to-dark-brown bases (around level 4) who want to refresh their colour with red-violet warmth, blend in early greys (without 100% coverage) or add multi-tonal shine. Suitable for use at home only with experience, or by a professional colourist.
How to use
- Carry out a strand and skin allergy test 48 hours before colouring.
- Mix Revlonissimo Color Excel with the recommended Revlon developer at the indicated ratio.
- Apply evenly to dry, unwashed hair, working in sections from roots through to ends.
- Leave to develop for 20–30 minutes depending on the desired intensity.
