I'm sure you're aware, as a busy hair professional, that the UK hair industry is thriving; however, did you know it's worth billions? The National Hair and Beauty Foundation reports that it’s now worth over a billion pounds and employs 220,000 professionals.

With so much competition, the challenge for every salon and yourself is: “How do I stand out?” Chasing overpriced brands with false promises won't help, but choosing the right ones will! Any hairstylist can offer hair colouring, but delivering long-lasting results with a pleasant experience is what turns a first-time visitor into a regular

That’s why a lot of professional salons in the UK rely on L’Oréal Majirel, the professional colour system that delivers results, builds loyalty, and keeps your business ahead of the competition.

What Is L’Oréal Majirel?

Majirel is a professional permanent colour system designed exclusively for salon use. Unlike box dyes, Majirel requires developer and professional technique, ensuring tailored results every time.

Why salons love it:

• A Rich, long-lasting colour with up to 100% grey coverage
• Strengthening hair with Ionène G + Incell technology
• Giving clients consistent, salon-quality results you can trust

Luckily, at CM Hair and Beauty Supplies, we have a range of Majirel products to suit your hair professional needs!

For different clients, there are other needs, and the Majirel range has something for almost every need:

• NEW Majirel Professionals: The professional range consists of classic crème colours that are vibrant, reliable, and have full grey coverage, now with less ammonia and 100% Vegan
• Majirel Cool Cover: This range offers intense, long-lasting cool tones which work to neutralise unwanted warmth.
• Cool Inforce: A tonal booster designed to maintain and enhance cool reflects for longer-lasting colour freshness.
• Majirel Mix: Concentrated shades used to intensify, neutralise, or personalise any Majirel colour result
• Majarouge: A collection of rich, vibrant red shades for bold and luminous results.

New Majirel Formula updates:

The new L’Oréal Professional Majirel has been designed with professionals in mind, keeping everything you love about the classic formula whilst introducing improvements. It maintains the same 1:1.5 mixing ratio, providing up to 100% white hair coverage, delivering rich, even colour. One of the most noticeable changes is the larger 60ml tube (previously 50ml), giving you more product per tube and greater profit potential. It has smoother and faster mixing for easier application and is now 100% vegan, with no animal-derived ingredients or by-products.

Mixing Guidance:

The new and old Majirel formulas can be mixed, but only in equal amounts and always at the 1:1.5 ratio with the Odour Trapping Technology Oxydant.

Patch Testing Guidance:

As with all permanent or semi-permanent hair dyes, a patch test must always be carried out before application, even if you are using a client’s regular brand. This involves applying a small amount of dye solution behind the ear or on the inner elbow and leaving it to dry, following L’Oréal’s manufacturer’s instructions. If the client experiences irritation, discomfort, or feels unwell after the patch test, the product should not be used.

I'm sure you’ve had at least one client request grey coverage, with it being one of the most common client requests, and a reason why UK salons often choose L'Oréal Majirel.

Tips for full coverage:

Use natural base shades such as:
5.0

or 1 

for resistant, stubborn greys.

Add reflections for depth and dimension.

Expect up to 100% coverage when applied correctly
