I think the blondme highlifts are a bit better, I use the steel blue and ice.

I got the steel blue today I can't wait to get regrowth now so I can try it , also I posted a few days ago about keeping peroxide strength , i pick up the blondme 12% to go with the steel blue but it was the old packaging will it till work also I know you should always use the same brand peroxide but if I was to use the blondme 12% with an igora 12 colour would it still works or do I have to use the igora 12%

I'm sure the peroxide with old packaging will be fine, is it new? I've never used the blondme developers with igora range I suppose it would be alright but as it's not the recommended developer the results might not be as good?!

Yer the peroxide is new I got it from my local wholesalers it's just the old packaging and I think I won't risk it with igora il just get the igora one

What's your natural base?

What's your natural base?

I'm a natural warm base 7 , in the igora 12 line which would you say neutralises the most warmth the 12-11 or the 12-2

What do you usually use?

What do you usually use?

Well I was blue black colour removed it which took me to a coppery 7 then did full head bleach with 6% and did a pastel lilac that has faded and About a week ago I used Wella 12/81+12% on my regrowth so I would be blonde but with a shadow root effect ,so now I'm looking at trying highlifts from different brands to see which lift the best and give the best neutralisation

 

[suse82]

If your quite warm I'd use 12-2 maybe with a dab of 0-22. Cam you've been testing all the highlifts what do you find best?

I might try 12-2 then , looking at the swatches the 12-11 looks really grey but would you say the 12-2 was strongest ash and is it similar to the steel blue ?

So far, KP 12/81 with a DOT of 0/28 has gotten me the coolest. 12/89 got me pure yellow so that was the brightest but definitely not the nicest. 12-2 with a few cm 0-22 was quite orangish yellow still, so 12/81 has been the best so far!

Have u tried the igora 12-11

 

[cassies97]

Have u tried the igora 12-11

Nope but -1 is almost like a lilacish ash, much like the /9 in wella. -2 is a much denser blue. Why not try 12-2 and 12-11 mixed? With concentrate too

Not to mention... My hair is VERY warm, i can get max 2 shades of lift with highlift and 12%

It's a shame they don't do a 12-22

Thats what 0-22 is for haha

I always get concerned about adding tone boosters into highlifts as I'm worried it will reduce the amount of lift

No cause you're only doing a few cm's.

Mfi would say 'adding special mix affects lifting power'

I must try 12/81 in kp. Ah that's dissapointing! I'm also going to try my own highlift experiments. I'll try kp what's the loreal new ones like?
