High lift tint

[amanda80sgirl]

I have a client who previous has had wella 12/0 & then a majorel high lift , she said it has gone slightly orange so wants to try a different one, I was going to use 12/1& maybe mix in 12/11 but wondered if there was a better option with other brands? As I've always used wella. She has a base of 6, wants yo get as blond as poss!

Well ash will only soften the warmth so what do you think would be a better option? Also what undertones are you encountering when you lift from a base 6?

No wonder your client is throwing loads of warmth. You are working on a level 6 with a highlift tint that has no tone in it. You need to think of your color wheel and what you need to counteract.

I find that a level 6 will go to an 8 to a 9 but with a fair amount of warmth being thrown so 12/89 or 12/81 with 12% and I would add /81 in mixed tone to the mix.

Or, use bleach and tone.

I think the base of the ash is blue/green and neutralises red/orange.

Ash doesn't neutralise anything.

I do not agree...

It says that 12/11 is the most neutralising shade and that it neutralises red/orange...

I would just bleach and tone tbh x

/1 Ash can subdue any other tone.

 

[krisko]

It has to has some base and neutralise something...

It will subdue, not neutralise.

 

[krisko]

I don`t get it... Maybe it`s the language barrier... What do you mean saying "subdue"?

 

[tsparker78]

It will make it less vibrant, think about a layer of ashes over yellow.

Ash will not completely neutralise or counteract another tone it'll only soften it. Example, if you put blue over orange it will neutralise it and you'll end up with a neutral or cool colour, if you put ash over orange it will soften the orange and you'll still have a warm colour, it'll be much less warm but will not be neutral or cool.

So you get it now? I find /6 to be slightly on the warmer violet side. /8 I find pretty blue though.

I am interested in seeing a swatch of 12/22 and I want to try it

[krisko]

cams97, have you tried 12/22? I don`t know what to expect from double green based high lift

6 is fashoin violet, yes more red than blue. 9 is a gray violet.
