Needing a bit more red

[lilly]

Colour help needed. I have a client who is 70% white at front who has been colouring her hair herself vein a very dark brown which is too harsh and too flat. I coloured her hair last time and used koleston, half 4/75 with half 44/0. It was ok but didn't show enough red, any suggestions .

Your not meant to mix 44/0 or any double based with normal colours, try 44/44 or 44/0 with /44 mixtone x

Maybe add some 0/45 into it if your client was happy with the colour,or do some lowlights in it before doing the regrowth )

What ! Your kidding me. Lol ! I was told these can be used in place of single bases for better Gray coverage oops

Mmm, thought about that but wasn't sure if the 0/45 would do anything on her hair because of it being so dark and having a build up ?

I never used single bases always doubles but no you can't use anything else apart from mixtone with them x

Oh gawd ! I'm just looking at the back of the chart and its not very clear, one example is.....

77/0 = intense med blonde for maximum coverage of resistant white hair ? So these can def only be used with special mixes ?

Try 44/44 or 44/65 depending what you want
4/75 is more brunette then red

I am going to use 44/65, now as its a double base going on to over 50% white do I still use half 44/65 with half 4 ???

 

[pinky_kez]

As far as I know yes
