Asking on behalf of my colleague as it's got us both stumped!
The client just wanted her roots highlighted to match the mid and ends, it hadn't been coloured for a year.
My colleague chose to do bleach with 6% and igora 12-1 with 12% alternate foils.
The foils were left on for a bit longer than maximum development time but the hair didn't lift very well and you could see a clear line between the colour and the midlengths.
The hair was in good condition still so my colleague did a second application of the bleach foils with a higher peroxide but it just wouldn't lift anymore.
In the end she toned it with a 10-1 which obviously didn't do anything as the hair didn't lift to a 10.
My colleague asked me what I would have done differently..
The only thing I wouldn't have used is the high lift just because I find they throw a lot of warmth out anyway but I have no idea why the bleach didn't lift the way it should :-S
Does anyone have any ideas? The client wasn't pregnant or on medication so I doubt hormones would be the cause. Hope pics work!
