BES ammonia-free hair color includes professional systems developed for different technical needs. Not all ammonia-free color systems work in the same way or provide the same type of result.
BES Regal Zero is a permanent oxidative hair color system, while BES Regal Soft Color is designed for semi-permanent coloring and toning services.
The choice between the two systems depends on the desired result, the starting base, the percentage of grey or white hair and the type of technical service to be performed.
BES Regal Zero is a professional permanent oxidative hair color. Its formula is not alkalized with ammonia and does not contain PPD (p-phenylenediamine).
Regal Zero works with five specific activation systems, developed to achieve different technical results including masking, toning, coverage, lightening, neutralization and reflection.
It is the BES system designed for those looking for a permanent color change within a professional ammonia-free hair color system.
BES Regal Soft Color is a professional ammonia-free semi-permanent hair color system designed to modify, intensify or change the cosmetic reflection of the hair.
It works with three specific Regal Soft activators with low oxidizing power, each developed for a different technical objective and processing time.
Regal Soft Color is particularly suitable when the main objective is to tone the hair, refresh the color, modify the reflection or perform a semi-permanent color service without using a conventional permanent hair color.
Both systems belong to the BES professional ammonia-free hair color range, but they are designed for different needs.

|---|---|
| Permanent color change | Regal Zero |
| Permanent oxidative hair color without ammonia | Regal Zero |
| Toning | Regal Soft Color |
| Semi-permanent hair color | Regal Soft Color |
| Refreshing or modifying the reflection | Regal Soft Color |
| Working with five specific levels of technical activation | Regal Zero |
| Working with specific low-oxidation activators | Regal Soft Color |
No. The term “ammonia-free” describes one characteristic of the formula, but it does not by itself determine whether a hair color is permanent or semi-permanent.
Within the BES professional color range, the difference can be clearly seen between Regal Zero and Regal Soft Color:
For this reason, before choosing an ammonia-free hair color, it is important to first determine the type of result you want to achieve.
Regal Zero uses five specific activators:
Regal Soft Color uses three specific activators — No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 — developed for low-oxidation semi-permanent color services.
Regal Zero and Regal Soft Color activators belong to different professional color systems and should not automatically be considered interchangeable.

Both Regal Zero and Regal Soft Color can be used for different needs related to grey or white hair, but the choice depends on the type of service, the percentage of white hair and the desired result.
Within the Regal Zero system, BES provides specific activators for functions such as masking, coverage and balancing coverage, lightening and pigment deposit.
Regal Soft Color can also be used to work with white hair within a semi-permanent system. BES includes white hair coverage among the results of the system when the appropriate specific activator is selected for the service.
