Hi,
This past weekend I had a new client come in for a color service. She had about 1 1/2- 2 inches of new growth. She is a natural level 9 and wants to be dark. We chose a level 6N and i used 20 volume developer with it. I applied to the new growth first and then went back and applied to the rest of the hair. It processed for 30 minutes and everything was processing perfectly. Once I rinsed the color out it didn’t grab on to the new growth. I went in with level 5 to see if that would help. As soon as I rinsed it out it didn’t take as well. So I applied a level 4 on her and it took ash/ brown or know as a very mucky brown color. So I advised her to come back the next day and I would be able to clarify her hair and try again. We ended up using a 4rb + 5mm to tone it but it still was lighter.
I was informed that the client wasn’t on any medications but used a Shea moisture curl smoother on her hair.
Why in the world would color not take to complete Virgin hair?
Please help
