hi all, i have a colour change query. i have a new client whose photo is below. she said she wants hair stripped and then to go Golden Brown. Her hair has been box dyed in the past and also bleached in past. The hair looks around a base 5 at present and Golden Brown options come in around base 6. I have sought advices from my HNC colleagues and i'm stuck on option.
I could go ahead and strip the hair and then use a 6v with an 6 base to bring to colour. I would need to be aware of the Red Orange undertone at Base 6. This would need Blue Green tone to neutralise. So i would need a tube of something to cover the Blue Green at Base 6. I may need to prepare a cocktail in case i cant get a blue green i same range.
Or Instead of Stripping I could Bleach the hair with 20 vol and just lift as much as I needed. The undertones and colour would be as above.
Alternatively I could use no bleach or stripper as base is very close i have found the following online with tones and mixing details. Client seems happy with this. I could just apply to existing hair with a 20 vol and mix as detailed. Is this option viable?
