Hi everyone,
I have a client that has been using a level 9N on her hair with 20 volume and although she is achieving good gray coverage she is very unhappy with the depth of the color. She feels it is too dark and would still like to be much lighter more like a pastel beige blonde. At the moment she has about a good inch/ inch and a half of salt and pepper regrowth, it is very coarse gray hair. And of course her ends have some color build up on them in a level nine, she is showing a lot of gold.
I would like to try using a high lift neutral and a high lift violet half and half ratio. I have been trying to find out if it's actually necessary to use double 40 when working with a high lift blonde or is it better to use double 20 volume and have more of the deposit effect on the gray hair?
Once I have her root accomplished I plan on foiling and using lightener to bring out some of the 9N on her ends and then we'll finish everything with a lightest ash blonde toner.
Does it sound like this will achieve a more pale beige blonde with some dimension? She would really like to then only return to the salon just for root touch up with the high lift blonde. She wants to become more of a single process.
Thank you!
