Hi guys first to say i'm new to this site glad i found it. i'm looking for an advice from others proffesionals.
Well here is my problem. My syster has a medium to dark browm and she always wanted to go lighter. So she was using a home color. Loreal light ass brown 6.A but those products always turn her hair brassy so after many trys she came to my to have her hair done by a pro, so i told her she can not get that kind of color in just one stet so i decided to do a bleach bath, full head because she has kind of short hair, so after the bleach i used wella light ass brown but the result wasn't what i wanted. The resulting color was lighter than expected more of a medium brassy blond under sun light and no brown at all, the color was fine under cool lights but under sun light you could see the red orange undertone and that's what i don't want, so i told to my mother because she has been doing hair for 30 years and she told me brown are always to have red orange or brassy refflections under sun light because of the pigmentation. So next time i told her to go dark blonde to get rid of those orange tones since blondes have less red pigmentation so we did again the bleach bath used wella dark blonde and guess what? The resulting color was the same than using light ass brown and not diference at all, the same medium brassy blond. So my question is how you guys get a true cool light ash brown or cool dark ash blonde without those red orange brassy under tones. Is there a problem with wella to achive this colors or the bleach bath need to be done twice to get a true pale yellow and then apply the color or i should use a toner to cool down the color. She just want a light ash brown the coolest the better and no orange red or brassy undertones, i wonder if this is even possible lol. For the bleach i'm using loreal quick blue. So please guys need your help to get this job done right. I'm lucky nobody asked for this in my salon.
