Sorry i have posted about this before an lots of people suggested a sprinkle bleach in the mix i have tried this and still the same gingery result her hair is extremely fine and wispy so i would not like to use just bleach either

How long do you leave the colour on for?
Do you have a blonding cream to add to the tint (this can help it lift a bit more)
As it's happened a few times i wouldn't put it down to hormones.
The only thing i would suggest is try and keep the front few foils on a bit longer, use an ash colour and recommend silver shampoo.
If you add bleach to tint your going to remove some of the tone from the colour. Plus if you add bleach with high lift your putting bleach with 12% on hair.

Colour is on 45 mins and always try to leave on the front a little longer i have never heard of a blonding creme x

She also uses silver shampoo and the colours i used to use b4 were ash but then as was going more gingery orange i tried the 12.81 for the blue :/ x

Tone with 10.16 then use 12.16 highlift next time, high
Lifts need to be on at least 50mins!!

 

[Bluerinse]

But if she is base 4 you will never get in much lighter as wella highlifts only go 4 shades lighter

Some colour ranges have a cream to add into tint to help it lift a bit higher.

If the rest of the hair is fine I'd put a few bleach packets around the front but stick to the tint for the rest of the hair.

Sorry i've not been much help x

Don't be scared of toners just keep your dye on it and it will be fine x

Do i use with 1.5% on wet hair?x

 

[donna hair]

I usually shampoo hair towel dry a bit then put the toner on. I normally use 1.5

Highlift are different to normal colour rules, first 15 are crucial and last 15 mins are crucial, no heat during first 15, last 15 is when tone I'd deposited, remove it to early and the tone will be completely wrong. Check you MI x

 

[BethanyBum]

Aww thanks x

Yup am with bluerinse. They are usually on for 50 mins to 1 hour. Try leaving it a full hour, also do you make sure you use a fresh mix on the front?
