Revlon ColorSilk 48 Burgundy is a classic, high-fashion shade that delivers a rich, wine-inspired finish. It strikes a beautiful balance between deep red and plum-violet tones, creating a "black cherry" effect that is both sophisticated and bold. As part of the ColorSilk range, it is ammonia-free, ensuring that your hair stays soft and healthy even with such a vibrant pigment change.
Key Features & Benefits
Luminous Red-Violet Finish: Provides a deep, saturated burgundy that glows with violet reflects, especially under natural light.
Ammonia-Free Formula: Offers a pleasant, odorless coloring experience that is significantly gentler on the scalp and hair fiber.
3D Color Gel Technology™: This Revlon signature tech ensures the color looks multi-tonal and natural, avoiding the "flat" look common with dark red dyes.
Keratin & Silk Protein: The formula is enriched with nourishing silk amino acids and keratin to leave your hair silkier and shinier than before you colored.
100% Gray Coverage: Evenly saturates stubborn white or gray hairs with intense burgundy pigments for a uniform look.
UV Defense: Built-in protection helps maintain the intensity of the violet-red molecules, which are traditionally the fastest to fade.
Shade Comparison: 34 vs. 48
34 Deep Burgundy: A darker, moodier wine shade. It has a deeper brunette base and the red reflects are more subtle.
48 Burgundy: A "true" burgundy. It is noticeably brighter and more "red-violet forward" than shade 34, making it more visible in lower light settings.

Application Instructions & Professional Gloves
Application Pro-Tips for Red Tones
Avoid the "Hot Root" Effect: If your roots are much lighter than your ends, apply the color to the mid-lengths first and the roots last to ensure an even tone.
Cold Water Rinse: To lock in the burgundy pigment, always rinse with the coldest water you can handle. This seals the cuticle and prevents the dye from washing away quickly.
Sectioning: Red pigments show unevenness easily. Section your hair into 4-6 parts to ensure every strand is fully saturated for that "salon-rich" look.
