Hi everyone
I've got a client who has neglected her long hair. Subsequently she has 4-5" of re-growth at the roots which is near enough 100% grey/white, brown faded midlengths (approx a 7.4 in Clynol) and very faded light brown/blonde ends. She wanted to go blonde and asked me to put bleach and brown highlights in to try to disguise the grey with the idea of putting more and more bleach highlights in over a period of time. I had suggested putting a brown on all over, wash and dry her hair then bleach highlights but she wanted to try the highlights route first.
So 6 weeks ago, I put 2 rows of bleach, 1 row of 8.0 and 1 row of 6.0. The result was fairly poor and I wasn't happy with it. I didn't feel that it disguised the roots enough. Also, 6.0 came out quite dark and looked like I had put in more of that than blonde. On the plus side, it did look better than when we'd started!
She now wants me to do it again but I am wondering what the best method will be. Should I:-
1. Do what I first suggested? But, what colour should I use and what will happen with the dark 6.0 highligsts?
or
2. Strip all the colour from her hair and put an all over blonde colour of say 8.0 or 9.0?
I have never stripped colour before so any suggestions on which colour stripper and which clynol colours to use would be very much appreciated.
You've probably guessed that I use Clynol colour range.
Thankyou for your time.
