Sensus MC2 Permanent Hair Color

Sensus MC2 Permanent Ammonia-Free Hair Color 100 ml is Sensus's permanent oxidative hair color without ammonia, PPD, parabens, silicones, or added resorcinol. It provides 100% gray coverage and lifts up to 3 levels. Mix 1:1.5 with Lux Activator or Cream Activator.

What it does for you

• 100% gray coverage across the entire shade range.
• Uniform, long-lasting color with balanced tones and bases.
• Gentle on hair and scalp, without ammonia, PPD, parabens, or silicones.
• Soft, shiny, and hydrated hair after coloring, thanks to the ARC complex, quinoa, and acai berries.
• Lifts up to 3 levels, while the Super High Lift series lifts natural hair by 4–5 levels.
• Fresh, delicate fragrance during coloring.

How to use it at home

1. Perform an allergy test according to the instructions on the box and wear gloves.
2. Weigh 40 g of color and 60 g of Lux Activator or Cream Activator (1:1.5 ratio). Choose 3%, 6%, 9%, or 12% depending on how much you want to lift.
3. Apply the mixture with the brush and deposit it on the hair without rubbing.
4. For touch-ups, apply only to the roots. The processing time is between 30 and 55 minutes after applying the activator; with 6%, leave it on for 35 minutes.
5. For the first application on natural hair, start with the lengths and ends, 2 cm from the roots. After 20 minutes, without rinsing, prepare a fresh mixture, apply it to all the hair, and leave it for another 35 minutes.
6. Emulsify, rinse thoroughly, then use an Illumyna Tech acidifying shampoo and mask.

For what hair type

For all hair types, including those with a lot of gray hair, and for anyone who wants a permanent ammonia-free color. For more than 3 levels of lift, you need the Super High Lift series with 12% activator at a 1:2 ratio, which, however, does not cover gray hair. Do not color if the scalp is sensitive, irritated, or injured.

Active ingredients

• ARC (Active Revitalizing Complex): plant-based amino acids that mimic the hair's keratin and strengthen it during coloring.
• Quinoa: natural proteins that protect the hair and help the color last longer.
• Acai berries: rich in phytosterols, fatty acids, and vitamin C, they hydrate and soften the hair.

What else you need

• Lux Activator 6%, for gray hair
• Lux Activator 9%, for more lift
• Nectar, hair color care additive
• Illumyna Tech Locking Acidifying Shampoo
• Coloring brush
• Scale for accurate dosing

ProBeauty tip. Cool shades, such as the new .01 and .27, come out more true to tone with an activator one level higher than usual. For example, from a natural 6 to a cool 8, Sensus recommends 12% instead of 9%.

Sensus MC2 Nectar Restructuring Color Additive 120 ml is a restructuring cream that you add to MC2 ammonia-free hair dye. It is the previous generation of Nectar, with the ARC complex, for sensitized lengths. Sensus has replaced it with Illumyna Tech Nectar 190 ml.

What it does for you

• Restructured lengths and ends during coloring.
• Stronger, more hydrated and shinier hair after rinsing.
• Two services at once: roots with MC2, lengths with MC2 and Nectar.
• Color that lasts longer on previously colored hair.
• Tone-on-tone and color bath to revive faded color.

How to use it at home

1. Mix 40 g of MC2 dye with 60 g of Lux Activator 10 vol (3%).
2. For lengths and ends, add 20 g of Nectar (1/5 of the mixture).
3. For tone-on-tone, add 33 g (1/3), and for a color bath, 50 g (1/2).
4. Apply to lengths after applying the dye to the roots; leave for at least 15 minutes, depending on the roots' processing time.
5. Emulsify, rinse, and wash with Locking Shampoo.

For what type of hair

For previously colored or lightened, sensitized, and porous lengths that you color with MC2. It does not cover gray hair or lighten the shade. If you use Giulietta or Colorgrace, you need a different version: Illumyna Tech Nectar works with all of them.

Active ingredients

• ARC (Active Revitalizing Complex): plant-based amino acids that mimic hair keratin; they strengthen and restructure the hair shaft.

What else you need

• Sensus MC2 ammonia-free permanent hair dye
• Lux Activator 3% 10 vol oxidant
• Illumyna Tech Nectar 190 ml color additive
• Illumyna Tech Locking acidifying shampoo
• Professional hair dye mixing bowl

ProBeauty Tip. Prepare two bowls: one with plain MC2 for the roots, the other with MC2 and Nectar for the lengths. Start the timer for the roots and apply to the lengths towards the end, so it does not sit for less than 15 minutes.
