yuv Beauty, a new Beauty-Tech company, invites us to adjust our mindset as it launches the world’s first smart hair colour lab, perfect for salons and freelancers. The yuv Lab is a patent-pending system that dispenses millions of custom-colour formulations at the touch of a button. Rather like the paint-mixers you see in the DIY stores, this means you can create exactly the shade you want super-easily. AND the big win is that it will save you money and operate in a more sustainable way.

The colour lab takes a number of large cartridges of colour to create the right blend you request and deliver only the amount you need. It saves the average salon hundreds of pounds a year from colour wastage and provides a truly sustainable and space-saving alternative to current systems. You can use the yuv app on your phone or iPad to choose custom blends. The yuv Lab then mixes colours to create the desired shade. Ideal!

Here’s the yuv Beauty deal
Creatively, the yuv Lab allows professional hair colourists to create precise bespoke formulations tailored to each client’s hair type and desired look. From quarter shades to the addition of tertiary tones, pH control, and translucency-opacity levels, yuv says the system uses advanced technology to create the perfect blend of colours and tones. This ensures a flawless and consistent result every time.

Future conscious
The yuv pioneering new approach is to use specially- developed tailor-made refillable cartridges for the yuv Lab to help create a more environmentally conscious future for the hair industry. We love this. The yuv Lab uses aluminium metal cartridges, providing a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional single-use colour tubes. The closed-loop system of refillable cartridges also reduces waste, contributing to a more environmentally friendly approach to professional hair colouring. If you’re looking for more ways to be more sustainable in the salon, this could be a great start.

Financially exciting
The yuv pay-as-you-dispense model means that salons and freelancers will only ever be charged for what they use; no more over-paying for dead stock…brilliant. The new way of purchasing colour is a cost-effective solution for everyone and allows for salons and freelancers to better manage their inventory and reduce their waste. yuv has developed smart algorithms that ensure colour cartridges are automatically restocked; based on their own unique usage, with no upfront inventory costs.

What about colour performance?
The yuv innovative and gentle hair colour formulation is designed to achieve maximum customisation, providing up to 100% grey coverage, whilst maintaining the integrity of the hair. The ME-PPD technology replaces PPD or PTD which are the main sources of reactions in other colour lines and it has been scientifically proven to dramatically reduce allergic reactions. Furthermore, the yuv Lab is fully-equipped with all the developers colourists need, including a cream bleach, and offers the flexibility to substitute ingredients for achieving semi-permanent results.
