CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS...

Rachel Dunbar, Tennessee.- I have to rave, rave, rave about the CDC color. Have been a Logics user since I started doing hair 15 years ago and the coverage of the CDC is wonderful. It is great for gray coverage. I have found that I am very partial to the NS series. I use it alot. My absolute favorite formula is on a level 5- 65% white. I mix 6NS and 6.34 and it is a beautiful auburn. I have been playing with it for a while now, and tinkering with formulas here and there, but it definately a color line that will always be in my salon!

Jord, Illinois.- I love love love it too! beautiful coverage.

Mushie, Toronto Canada.- I love CDC, too! Can't say enough about it. Honestly, there is not one thing I dislike about the colour.

Tonya Bartley, Studio 29 Hair Design Alberta Canada.- Here is another avid cdc lover. My color clients are 90 percent or more of my business since I switched over to cdc. The results speak for themselves.

Hi, Javier

I received my new Ego hairdryer! I am really impressed. I knew I was going to like it right away when I opened the box and saw the really nice packaging - (good first impression)

I wanted to use it the dryer for a few days before I wrote to you so I could give you a good overall review on it - so that is what I did.

First off, it is as you told me, amazingly lightweight - and after styling some really thick heads of hair, my arm simply didn't feel tired after holding the Ego dryer. The 10 ft cord is another plus. I was able to walk around my client while blow drying the hair without tripping over the cord. Furthermore, the cord never did twist up, or get in my way.

For as lightweight as this dryer is, it does dry the hair rather quickly. Another thing I really like about this dryer is that it doesn't blow the hair all over the place while styling the hair i.e. - putting the hair around a round brush. The nozzle of the dryer is perfect in size thereby allowing a nice direct flow of hair over the area I am styling. I felt after the drying - the hair was surprisingly smooth to the touch. Another example I would like to share with you is about another one of my clients whose hair is naturally curly -- I realized that I didn't really have to flat iron her hair as much as I have had to do in the past. That was a nice surprise!!

Thank you Javier for all you do. I love my new dryer and so happy I purchased it.

Rose Carusone-Fenechi I am EXCLUSIVE 2 Compagnia Del Colore Stylist and Salone .....Absolutely NO other color can compare....... I LOVE U COMPAGNIA

Thank you so much for all the info!!!! I am anxious to share my delight with you regarding CDC. I started researching your product like 5-6 weeks ago. I was currently using Goldwell, and although satisfied, I have still been in search of a product that I can love and support their philsophy concurrently.

Today, my own hair was in dire need of a touch up. I received my color order from Haircared last evening and immeidately took it to my salon and organized the order. I was in awe of the packaging and immediately started to fall in love. The swatch book is amazing! It is so user friendly for both the artist and the patron. I love how the book falls open to the middle and you can see all the colors without turning a page. (Sometimes it's the small things that matter!)

I "borrowed" a couple of tubes for my own color and proceeded to tackle the task. I was pleasantly suprised and realized that I was not overwhelmed by ammonia when I opened the tube, (I did read the manual pdf and was aware of the low ammonia content). The process was for the first time in a long time not only tolerable, but enjoyable. The scent is pleasing, very little "tingling" on the scalp, and NO STAINING!!!!! I use a level 5 and usually spend a great amount of time trying to remove the stains from the color that was intended to cover the "natural platinums" that age is gifting me!!

So, in the end, I just wanted to thank you for a quality product! My hair has immense shine and felt awesome immediately post color. I am thrilled to offer CDC in my salon!! And the cost, I feel like so much more of a savvy business woman today for empowering myself with a quality product at a price that allows me to stay competitive in our down economy without pinching my accounts payable!!!!!

I look forward to a long-term professional relationship with compagnia Del Colore and cannot wait to share the benefits of the products with my clients and peers!

Have a great day,

Sincerely,

Lori Allen-Cleland

Haircared, I just wanted to say thank you for offering such a great deal on your color right before the holidays. It shows that you really care about the hairdressers in these tough economic times by offering such a great deal. Thank you and keep up the good work.

I received my shipment today...thank you !  I can't wait to use the color on my clients....I colored my hair with the product and loved the smell of the product. The shine is great and thanks for sending the shampoo/conditioner samples ... I wanted to try them but forgot to ask. I love love love this color line :)

I wanted to let you know that the  CDC Color Care products are out-selling my high end Loreal Serie Expert. An 8oz bottle of Loreal Shampoo retails for 25.00 and the 5oz conditioner also retails for 25.00. I have given out the sachet samples of Color Care and everyone that has tried it has come back to purchase a retail size of both shampoo and cond. All the people who purchased the CDC have said that it was the shine in CDC hair color that convinced them to try the CDC shampoo and conditioner. Keep up the great job and thank you to CDC.

I have been using the haircolor and so far I love the results. I have been trying all types of hair color from Rusk to TIGI and have not been able to get the shine, that I am happy to say, I am getting with this color. The advantages I see with CDC in comparison over Rusk and TIGI lines is the number of color choices, coverage was a big issue on predominately grey hair on the other lines, ease of application with a bottle instead of a bowl and brush, and overall shine of the hair.

Great results on 100% grey. I had one of my regular clients in today that we used to use Alfaparf 6.46. I switched her formula to CDC using 6(24ml)+6.4(4ml)+6.6(4ml)+20 volume.I have done her hair for 10 years and this new formula is the best I have ever used on her, it looked better than Majirel and Koleston Perfect ever did and it was far shinier. Loving Compagnia Del Colore and so are my clients.

Cdc is a superior haircolor line.  I have been a hair colorist for 14 years and am pleased with the performance of the product as well as the service i receive from javier and his staff.  I find that cdc has the perfect mix of durability and shine that my clients and i are looking for in a professional haircolor line.  The hair is left soft and manageable after service and the grey coverage is amazing.  I choose cdc to be he haircolor line of my salon because it is dependable, beautiful, and conditoning.

Just wanted to let you guys know that ALL of my clients thus far have been extremely happy with the CDC color. Friday, I had the opportunity to experiment a bit with a "glaze" on two clients - one needing some gray coverage around the face, the other needed major gray coverage between hi-lites.

Client 1: Natural Dark hair wanted no red and no blond. Was skeptical of all over permanent color and has very thick, coarse hair. Used the Tobacco on wet hair for 15 minutes and got fantastic results. She loved it and I hit the roots and pulled through after 10 minutes for a perfect natural blend.

Client 2: Had been going to someone 35 miles away since she could not find anyone local that she liked. He had been hi-liting to "blend in her gray" making it less noticeable - so he said. I touched up hi-lites with high lift 11.0 and glazed all over on wet hair with the Beige Blonde formula you have in the manual. She could not believe her hair - it toned the gray beautifully, toned down the "over blonde" from prior hi-lites, and left her hair healthy and shiny. She was very concerned since she has had two experiences in her lifetime that her hair was over processed with severe breakage. She was so pleased, the first thing she asked was how soon will I need to come back to get a retouch!

I have one more client this Saturday who is a natural level 3 and has been told by three other people in the last year that she can not go lighter all over. She was ecstatic when I told her she could and suggested a mocha. She was so excited she booked the Saturday appointment before I was completely through with blow out and style.

Really happy with your color - clients cannot believe the lack of odor (a requirement in my salon), the feel of their hair, and the shine. I love the colors, correctors, and formulas you offer.

Just wanted to drop a line and tell you a couple of things:

  1. I am a brand new customer and have now been open 1 week.  I used the color for the first time last Tuesday and everything I read is true!  GREAT color, feel, and shine.  The only time I have any hint of a chemical smell was during my mixing - away from the client who later mentioned that the color actually smelled good.
  2. Since we are just starting out, I had to stick to budget so I still have colors I intend to get.  The color book is fantastic and the basics for the "purpose" of certain numbers is easy to follow. I worked with pure color lines in the past and it could get rather complicated to produce a "buttery blonde" or "irish red".  Not so with your line.
  3. I truly appreciate the Prohairsalons site offering the products direct to consumers and a cut to the salons. I am not in a position to expand the line in my shop as yet but I intend to add as soon as things start cooking.
 
It is really great to see a manufacturer that cares about their clients.  And to think, I found you with a Google search and a little research!  It was definitely my lucky day!

Thanks for all YOUR efforts to my MY efforts pay off,

Linda from Redding California .- "My new client Marie called me today. Her former stylist was "considered a top colorist" in my town. Marie went by today and showed her the new CDC color I did and the gal just looked at her and said " That sure is different. Who did that?" Marie told her that she has had more compliments in a day than she had in 3 years going to her.

Susan from New York .- I have never done business with a company like "haircared.com"

Javier goes over and beyond with his kindness and caring about the buyer... I have had a few problems with shipping, and he has been more than accomodating to me in every area of getting me my orders!

I once had a box delivered that had been split open and repackaged... there was some damage to products, and he immediately sent replacements with a speedy delivery...

He puts little presents in the orders like new bowls and brushes, and helps me with shipping expenses.. I SO appreciate all his efforts!

I received an order today and he gave me a couple of posters.. I was surprised.. I immediately hung them up and my clients complemented on how nice they were and what a good advertisement for CDC!

CDC is THE BEST colorline I have ever used... I have been in the industry for over 30 years, and so far, have not used another color line that gives beautiful shine and full coverage for grey hair, as CDC does. And you cannot beat the price...
It is the best!........ And so is Javier...
Your color product..... colors me happy!

May your business "Boom" Javier... and with the way you treat your clients,,, there is no question in my mind that it won't!

Kathie from San Diego Ca.- "Absolutely true!! If other companies treated you like this you wouldn't mind giving them your hard earned dollars. Most companies don't have the slightest clue about customer service...(And the product is great, too!!)"

Linda from Redding Ca .- Haircared has always gone way beyond what other companies normally do. I also really appreciate the personal touch. It has allowed me to expose more
clients to their great products. Thank you so much!

Kim Valadez from Illinois .- Javier always goes over and beyond! he is so helpful! i have been using this product for over two years and i agree with Mags, it is the best color i have ever used. sales reps tend to do great offers in the beginning and than they stop. javier has stayed consistent!

thanks javier!

Jennifer Cabela from Texas .- I have had a chance to finally play with the CDC. Very happy!!! Predictable shiny soft results. I have only been back in the salon since November and predict I will be fully booked by next October with no wiggle room. I am very happy!!!

I ordered some of the CDC hair care line to throw on the back bar. I am addicted to the CDC Nourshng Cream conditioner. Here in Texas I am out in the sun a lot. I live on a ranch and have horses. And I play in the chlorine and sand with my 3 year old. Needless to say I play and work hard. I also have to use bleach on my hair to get it blonde. My hair takes a severe beating. The CDC Nourishing cream has been one of the only products I have found so far that really gives my hair condition and shine without "attracting" a lot of dust and dirt. I was using the Kenra masque, which was my fav, but at the end of the day my hair was a mess of dirt and pollen. Not so with the CDC. I have been missing it too as I gave my friend my jar out of my shower.

2/17/2008 Via askmags.com

Stacy from Florida .- "Just wanted to let you know that I have a client who is addicted to the Schwarzkopf color that I usually use on her. She had an appointment yesterday and unfortunately I was out of the color I needed for her. CDC to the rescue!!!! I told her I wanted to use a fabulous new color line on her and she FREAKED!! She almost changed her appointment until I calmed her down and told her she would love how it would look and feel after her color service. You know how you have these clients who are just looking for something, anything to go wrong so she can say "I told you so!!" Well, her color was AMAZING and she couldn't stop touching her hair afterwards. She kept saying how shiney and soft her hair felt. Kudos to Compagnia Del Colore and you mags!!!! Love this line!!!"

1/24/2008 Via askmags.com

Brian from Kansas .- "What is so great about CDC? Well, after using and relying on the same color lines for almost 30 years in my salon, and having been an educator and field rep for that company, all I can say about Compagnia Del Colore is:

WHY OH WHY drive an OLD, out of date, broken down Ford Pinto when you can drive a brand new shiny Cadillac for about the SAME price!!!!

There are WAY too many reasons TO use CDC, than not.

CDC = the Cadillac of all haircoloring.

Whats The greatest thing about using CDC?

If you ever have a question or problem,,,ASKMAGS.com!!"

1/23/2008 Via askmags.com

SHARON from Washington " I love the smell of CDC and from what little I have used it is super super shiny -- which I think keeps the hair looking really healthy and that is a plus. The older we get we tend to lose that 'shine' and it really does put it right back."

GLAMOUR from California " I'm always trying different color lines and CDC is still my fav. It just stays in the hair better then any of the other lines I've tried. It's very shiny, it really does make the hair look healthy. I like the consistency of it and the smell is very mild, pleasant and not over bearing. I like the tube size and it tends to go a longer ways than other lines I've been working with. Also, great as a Demi too. "

JORD from Illinois.-"Socolor is all I had ever used before CDC. I didnt think I had any problems with it, until I started using CDC."

BARTLEYG from Canada.- "I tried cdc on a 100 percent client and it covered beautifully. She loved it and now wants me to color it all the time. It covered better than my KP ever has."

CARE from Canada.-" Like Jord, I didn't realise how much I didn't like Socolor until I started using CDC! Socolor is VERY flat colour and it seemed to me that I always had an orangey brassy look, and yes even using the AA series. The 500 series did cover very well but was always warm. I know that you have to formulate to account for ULP but still it was overall just a warm line with little variation in the shades. Now that is all in comparison to CDC - which I LOVE!!"

BRIAN from Kansas.-"if you like So Color,,you would LOVE CDC!! Its 100 times better in EVERY way! The best part is that we have Mags to help us if we need it!
CDC is her baby,,,,she can tell you anything you could ever want to know about it!
Just try one of the starter kits in the shades you use the most,,,they are very economical, and a great way to try the color. Once you use it,,,you'll see what professional haircolor is SUPPOSED to look like, and you'll never again look at haircolor the same way.
CDC makes every other product totally obsolete, and very poor performing,,,,its like comparing a brand new Cadilac to a 1970 Orange Ford Pinto!"

12/5/2007 Via askmags.com

HAIRMAGICIAN65 from Delaware.- "I'm sold. I had a client come in Tuesday for her second retouch with CDC. We used to use Redken Color Gels. I have done her hair for at least 10 years now. She sat in my chair and said "I LOVE this color ! The best you have ever used!" It hasn't faded AT ALL. She usually comes back almost blonde. Soft and shiney and it looks real. Hey, she's happy, I'm happy."

TIKI from New Jersey.- "Last night my client/friend came over for a visit and she said that she got rave reviews on her hair color from 2 "high-end" salons recently. One was in Miami when she was on a business trip getting her nails done, and the other was in New Jersey when she was getting a massage and facial. They both said the color was incredible and wanted to know what it was."

LINDATB from California.- "Tiki, Doesn't that make you feel great! You'll have a client for life. I have a few cients that went somewhere else because they couldn't afford to pay my prices but they came back because of the results of the color."

11/29/2007 Via askmags.com

BARTLEYG from Canada.-" I did a 100 percent grey coverage on my client today. She is a 73 year old who has been box coloring for years. She loved her color and now I have a new color client as long as I use CDC. Well, Yipeeee. Thats four clients sold on the color. I am so pumped about this line. The more I read and use it the more I think there is nothing like it. "

AHCAPELLI SALON from New Mexico.-" The knowledge Mags gives is so priceless. We are so fortunate to have such a great educator and a great color/product line. It means so much to have support from people who have the same love of our profession. "

Bahaus Studio (California) & Hairmaven.com .- "We have been looking at changing out Goldwell (due to their second price increase within a year).  We have used Wella KP and Color Touch with less than impressive results. There is nothing wrong with the color, it's just when compared to Goldwell it was too different a change for us.

We have also been using Paul Mitchell The Color and PM Shines. We have been impressed and not impressed with PM Shines. We like The Color over all and the shine is better than Goldwell or the Wella as far as the permanent color goes. We were pretty much set on making the switch to Paul Mitchell until.....

We give CDC (Compagnia Del Colore) a shot. After checking out the color line again, I had seen it before and kinda poked around the line, I decided to give it a shot so I ordered a intro kit and have used it for the past 2 days. I have to say that I wasn't wanting to like it (sorry Mags), but I have to say that after using it on a few clients I'm really liking the results. I like the texture and consistency of the color. I like the results, the color is very even root to ends and the smell is nice. It has been an easy transition for us to make coming from Goldwell. Maybe it because we have been working with different lines that it's easy to transition to this one, I don't know but it is just easy and we don't worry or second guess ourselves with formulation. I like the cost factor, I like the packaging and think that it will look stylish sitting on the color bar and the company has been very attentive. I also like that the color company doesn't make a competing color like for retail sale at drug stores (Wella and Clariol). If things keep going this way, we will have a winner in the color battle."

I am so glad that there are actually people who are taking a stand for stylists and against product diversion because it always hurts the stylists more than anything. Stylists are breaking their backs trying to earn a living and many of them honestly want to believe that these big time manufacturers are on their side. Many stylists defend the industry and blame diversion on some shady characters loading product on a truck, but they fail to see exactly how organized this diversion monster is and that the very companies they defend and support are simply using them as cheap advertisements for larger financial ambitions. Mass retail.

Audrey Sivasothy, Author of "Salon Exclusive? The truth about hair salon product diversion."

I received the posters and products..I am ready for the Trade Show. My clients can not wait to get these products on my shelves. I have been using everything on them. It is truly amazing the results of their hair. Dried fuzzy over processed hair looks alive and movable, with shine and luster.

I will be ordering again soon. I am also using the color I purchased in the into kit. Love them. After I get the retail all settled I will be stretching into the hair color.

Thanks again, It is a pleasure doing business with you. The shipping is good, the product is good, customer relation is very good as well...A+ on your report Javier.

I am also interested in mousses, perms, dander shampoo. Hurry with the hairsprays...I sell lots of sprays...

I've used the Power Addict already and really loved it - I'm already talking it up in some of my posts at Askmags.com and will be doing a full "review" posting about it in a week or so once I've really used it for a bit. I'm going to use the CDC today to tone my hair. Those boxes and tubes are beautiful - like art, I think! And the smell of the color creme and developers are incredible!

The new Factor 11 seems very cool - looks like I'm gonna have to start saving up $$$ to try the bucket intro kit!

I just wanted you to know how much all my clients are loving the Color Care shampoo and the Nourishing Conditioner.

Marianne of Redding was a faithful Pureology user. I told her the Nourishing Conditioner by Compagnia del Colore was superior and I was sure she would switch when she tried it. She phoned last week to say I was right. She absolutely loved it and it was the best conditioner she had ever used and what impressed her the most was the feel of her hair after just a few times. Thank you guys for bringing us great non-diverted products.

On Tuesday of this week I received my intro color kit...I have had the chance to work with only about 5 shades so far and I wanted to let you know my overall feeling about the line.

For the last 2 1/2 years I have been the Master educator for a large spa in the St. Louis area during this time we worked with the DAVINES line and enjoyed the color very much...I have attended the world tour for Davines as an invited guest. About 8 months ago I left the spa and opened my own studio. I have been in the beauty industry for 31 years and am a licensed Instructor as well as cosmetologist...I also produce my own wet line private label for my studio. I have an old friend who produces the Renbow line and recently we have been using it. I like the beeswax formula... well enough about me back to your line...

If you were here I would kiss you! The color is fantastic! it is to me a cross between the beeswax technology of Ranbow with the micro Pigments of Davines....I am Thrilled to find a company the has such a great product and will be placing an order to fully stock my studio with your line...Thanks again for all of your help and we love the products. I will be referring a salon owner by the name of Lidiya she will contact you in the near future about ordering.
