Double base 66/00 with mixtone

[Lis2015]

Hi my natural colour is a dark blond but I think it's over 70% grey/white and can be quite resistant. I put a 66/00 with 6/37not realising it's not recommended to do this as it's better with pure mixtone.
It looks quite dark at the moment and wanted to add tone to it. I originally wanted more of a chocolate brown Would It be OK to do 66/00 with 0/30?

66/0 +0/30 will give you a gold tone not chocolate.

Hi yes I wrote that wrong I just wanted to add any kind of tone to the 66/00 to stop it looking so dark.
Orginally wanted chocolate brown, but ended up getting 0/30 to add a gold tone.
It hasn't made much difference, do you think I should do a bleach Bath to slightly lighten then try again

No if you keep putting the same tint on, you'll get pretty much the same result. 66/0 over prelightened hair would be a very flat horrible colour. What do you want to achieve?

Yes it is pretty flat at the moment. I will attach some photos of something similar but without the highlights.

I wouldnt bleach bath, the colour should fade and lighten up a little anyway . If you want to add warmth I would use a warm semi a shade lighter so it doesnt grab

What % of white are you covering?

 

[Lis2015]

you

OK fab thanks

What % of white are you covering?

At least 70/80 % my hair is quite resistant too

For future applications I'd use 70%6/0 + 30% 7/37 if you wanted a warmer shade. Anytime you use the double bases, they tend to turn out half a shade darker - that's why they give better coverage. If you wanted to still use 66/0 you should use 2.5g 0/30 for every 30g 66/0. If wanted a more chocolate tone you'd use 30g 66/0 + 1.5g 0/33 + 1g 0/65.
Your other option is to try colour touch plus 66/07 with the 4% intense emulsion

totally agree with Ronray, the Colour Touch Plus range is great for chocolatey colours that cover very well.
