Trionics Enzyme Developers - Actuator

Product Overview

Trionics Actuator is an enzyme-based color and lightening developer equivalent to a 20–30 volume peroxide developer, designed for salon color services that require mild to moderate lift. Unlike traditional peroxide developers, it uses a proprietary enzyme system that helps color penetrate while minimizing hair damage, helping produce softer, shinier hair with vibrant color results.

Key Features

20–30 Volume Performance
• Acts like a 20–30 volume developer, providing 2–3 levels of lift for color and lightener formulas.

Enzyme-Driven Technology
• Utilizes a natural enzyme system derived from sea kelp to open the cuticle gently and support color penetration with less stress on hair structure than peroxide alone.

Improved Results
• Helps deeper penetration into the hair cortex for truer color, longer-lasting results, and vibrant tones.

Reduced Hair Damage
• Conditioning and nourishing ingredients help strengthen hair and support scalp comfort during processing.

Versatile Use
• Works with all permanent hair colors, liquid and powder bleaches when moderate lift is desired.

Typical Uses

• Standard color deposit and lift services where a 20–30 volume developer would be used
• Mild to moderate lightening with bleach formula
• Balancing and toning formulas requiring consistent lift

How It Works

Mix and apply the Actuator developer in place of a regular 20–30 volume peroxide developer. Follow your color or lightener manufacturer’s mixing instructions. Enzyme technology can reduce processing time and improve conditioning, especially when used under gentle heat (hood dryer), though heat is optional.
