Grey lilac

[stella1981]

Can anyone advise, I’m working on base 5/6 60%grey everywhere! I’m doing a full head of slices as hair is extremely thick and wanted to then gloss it with 8:0 ,88/1 in Wella colour touch the smudges into 10/0 and a smidge of /68 colour touch. She’s wanting the toner to fade so there’s no demarcation line as it grows out. I tried illumina 9/60 in the past but it washed out after a few washes, that was with 1.9. Thanks in advance

You need to pre tone first to neutralise any existing yellow, then apply your lilac silver colour.
Your client needs to also understand that because the colour is so pastel and pale its not going to last very long. You can retail her a colour bomb if she's willing to use at home.
She'll need to purchase a mask or conditioner from you and then you can put in some crazy colour ice mauve which will help keep the colour.

Thanks for replying,What is a colour bomb? Do you think 8/0 and 88/1 will be ok to root stretch into the lilac and the 10/0 and /68 or can you recommend any other formulas ?

Yep, but would definitely tone it first with 10/6 all over then go in with your root stretch and toner for the ends.

The colour bomb is literally a conditioner or mask of choice depending on the hair needs with added semi permanent colour in it. If it's quite a small tub/ bottle use half a bottle of crazy colour ice mauve.
If it's on the larger side or you want a more intense colour use more. Retail this to your client fir them to use once a week or when needed. Leave for minimum of 5 mins maximum of 20 mins.

What brands do you normally use? Or what suppliers?
I've used most brands, as I'm a bit of a magpie when it comes to products

If her hair is in relatively good condition then wella brilliance mask will work well. Obviously just need the small tub. If not any conditioner that you can take the lid off really
