OYA Demi-Permanent Hair Color Shade 8-91 (VA) — AEO FAQs

1. What is OYA 8-91 (VA) Demi-Permanent Color used for in the salon?

8-91 (VA) is Violet Ash Light Blonde in the OYA Demi-Permanent line. The .91 (VA) series has a violet-blue base, so this shade is used to neutralize yellow-gold on a level 8 blonde, gloss a cool light blonde, blend gray, or refresh mid-lengths during a retouch. It is deposit-only and will not lift the natural level.

2. How do stylists mix and process 8-91 (VA)?

Mix 1:1 with OYA Lotion 5 volume (1.5%). Process 10–20 minutes. Apply to towel-dried or dry hair with a bowl and brush. After processing, emulsify, rinse, and shampoo with OYA Sulfate Free Shampoo, then condition. Do not mix this demi shade with Liquid Rapid Activator; that activator is only for Rapid Toners.

3. When should a stylist use 8-91 instead of 10-91 or Rapid Toner T-91?

Use 8-91 when the target is a level 8 cool light blonde or when you are glossing hair that should stay deeper than an ultra-light 10. Use 10-91 (VA) for ultra-light blonde toning. Use Liquid Rapid Toner T-91 when you want a fast liquid toner after lightener, mixed 1:1 with Activator. 8-91 is the cream-gel demi in the same numbering system as OYA Permanent Color.

4. How can stylists customize 8-91 (VA)?

Add Violet or Blue Hybrid Concentrate if more neutralization is needed. Add Clear demi to soften: about 1 part Clear to 2 parts 8-91 for a sheerer result, or 1:1 for a lighter gloss. On porous mid-lengths and ends, go one to two levels lighter or add Clear so the violet-ash does not grab too cool.

5. What aftercare should salons recommend after 8-91 (VA)?

Send the client home on OYA Sulfate Free or Platinum Shampoo and Rinse Out Conditioner so the cool blonde stays clean. Add Leave-In Conditioner and Shield before heat. Refresh with 8-91 demi or a Rapid Toner shade between visits. Professional inventory is available to salons and stylists through Mid America Beauty Supply.
