Wella pigment lock

[tsparker78]

I have a client: ombre, natural base 4, 1 " regrowth, mids 6/0 (illumina 7/81, 5/81, 2:1 with 9%.) Ends are 9/0.

She's wanting a darker balyage driven ombre with lightness around the fringe, a few fine highlights through the crown, and ends.

I'm weighing options for tinting the 9 back to a 6 blending into a 7 then to a 9.
She doesn't mind warmth, but i don't want wishy washy, kaki, or copper.

I know i can use ct , or even koleston perfect 's pigment lock, but my question is, can i use illumina for the pigment lock rather than kp? I know there is no /00 or /77 in illumina 😕

Has anyone tried this?

Or would the color touch method be the best way to go?

Interesting question. Try some strand tests using illumina tor pigment lock. Its not recommended but why not try it? But what shades to use?

I do love colour touch filling though! Love how you can adjust the formulas for a warmer/cooler result.

I was thinking about that too, but you know how much i love illumina. If i can get her in for an olaplex treatment i could do a couple cuttings beforehand. Just wanted to see if any other geeks had tried it. I hate being the 1st 😞

Maybe 5/7 and 5/35?

Is pigment lock like a prepig?

Takes the place off. Permanent tint + water develop, add peroxide, develop.

That's really good! I wonder if it would work with other brands!

It does! I've tried it. But you really need "that funny looking 7" shade wella does.

It's not that different from the old school clairol method.

Sounds like a good one. I used a "mocha" from Sally Beauty once in a pinch.

I imagine you could even whip something up, but fortunately we have wella!
