This chart covers the Scruples specialty lines. Blazing Highlights is a low-ammonia gel that lifts up to seven levels and deposits tone in one step, mixed with PURE OXI Clear 10 or 20 vol, Oil Lightener and X-tra Light Booster. Illusionist is a creme that lifts from one to seven levels and beyond while depositing, boosted with Accelerator Powder. Shadow Lowlights gels and Hypnotic cremes carry filler, so lowlights go on in a single step. Menz 5 Minute processes five to ten minutes at the shampoo bowl to blend or cover gray. Urban Shock Color Craze is a conditioner-based direct dye with no peroxide or ammonia.
