Advice please: Bleach blonde highlights to brown

[gersie]

My sister has blonde highlights and 80% grey. She now wants to go brown. If I were to mix xp100 5.75 (light heather brown)with xp100 5.003 (warm light brown) using 50/50 of each using 20% peroxide with half inch red (or do I even need to add this red), would this work without going green. Want a nice warm brown (not reddy)...any advice would be much appreciated...thanks

PS if you unaware xp100 equivalent to loreal

why dont u pre pig? it is very easy, doesnt take long and gives a much more even result. im not familiar with that brand of colour so cant comment. . but pre pigmentation is kinda a general rule when returning blonde to brown. . . x

Definately pre pig!

Stay away from golden tones as thats when you'll get the khaki affect.:green:

I would say with the xp 100 to add a little bit of 5.0 to the 5.75, as it can come out a little bit luminous! Definately agree with the others and pre pig first!
