Hi all
I have a problem that only started happening since my hair got shorter. I use to have an almost even length all round pixie cut and have been using PO1 (with Luo Color Releaser) after a blue bleech and L'oreal Professional Developer 1%. For about 3 years its been working well. I get a very white even color and never leave the color on for more than about 25 seconds to a minute,. I only use a 1/4 of the tube of P01. If i leave it longer that about 45 seconds, it turns grey.
For the last 4-5 colors I have had shorter hair - no'2 on the sides and about an inch and a half on the top, graded in - very similar to Pink's hair cut.
Maybe coincidence, but since going shorter i notice my color is very uneven. Its always noticeable on the sides and back (the shorter part). It started with the shorter parts keeping a bleech yellow look and the top a normal P01 white (note here i have never before had an uneven color result in the 3 years ive been coloring, so i doubt its my application that is an issue - but im open to criticism) .
So i started to leave the color in for slightly longer (more hitting the minute mark), Then i started doubling the mixture to get more coverage so use 1/2 the tube (and adjusting the releaser volume) to be sure it wasnt my application that was an issue.
Ive now noticed that by the time the sides get a lovely white, the top had turned grey. So the color of the short hair is different from that of the longer hair, regardless of whether i apply it to the top first or the sides first.
Surely this cannot be due to the length of the hair????
Any suggestions and comments appreciated.
