Jon Renau Special Color Concepts

 

Fashion Syrup (FS)

Combines a dark root with intense highlights. Creates a modern, multidimensional look. Typical examples: FS8/30, FS4/33, FS12/80.

Rooted Ombre (RO)

Soft, flowing transition from a dark root to lighter ends. More natural than a stark ombre contrast.

What does the "S" after the Jon Renau color code mean?

S stands for Shaded — a darker root, similar to "Rooted" used by European manufacturers.

What is the difference between H and RH?

H = approx. 20% highlights (subtle). RH = approx. 33% highlights (more intense, clearly visible).

What does FS mean at Jon Renau?

FS stands for Fashion Syrup: dark base + intensive highlights — for a particularly multidimensional effect.

Are Jon Renau color codes compatible with other manufacturers?

The base numbers are based on the American standard but are not identical to other brands. The suffixes (S, H, FS) are exclusive to Jon Renau.
