Shade 5.17 Light Ash Cool Brown

L'Oreal Inoa #5.17 is a permanent hair colour formulated without ammonia and enriched with oils. It uses ODS2 technology to deliver colour deep into the hair fibre while maintaining comfort. The 60 g tube is intended for adult users with normal hair seeking a cool brown result. Professional expertise is recommended for application.

Gentle formulation with no ammonia odour

The ammonia-free formula eliminates harsh smells during the 35-minute development time. Oils in the mixture help leave hair feeling conditioned throughout the process. This approach aims to provide a more comfortable colouring experience compared to traditional permanent dyes. The product is manufactured in Spain.

Covers 100% of white hair

This shade replaces the need for separate bleaching and toning steps when lifting natural colour by up to three levels. It suits users wanting full grey coverage in a single permanent application. The jump is worth it for those prioritising a low-odour, oil-enriched system over conventional ammonia-based colours. Not suited for clients requiring fashion shades outside the natural brown spectrum.

Questions about this item

How do I mix and apply the 60 g tube with developer, and what step causes uneven results?

Mix the 60 g tube with the recommended developer in a non-metallic bowl, apply immediately to dry, unwashed hair, and process for 35 minutes; the step most people rush is thorough saturation from roots to ends, which prevents patchy coverage.

What will need replacing once the 60 g tube is used up?

The 60 g colour tube is single-use; after it is empty you will need a new tube of shade 5.17 plus fresh developer for the next application.

How many levels of lift can I expect before the colour stops lightening?

The formula lightens up to 3 levels in 35 minutes; beyond that the lift plateaus, so darker bases will not reach a true light ash cool brown without pre-lightening.
