Collect as much information as possible about the hair dye you are going to use because they differ a lot in mixing ratio and the lightening effect of oxidizer.
I do recommend the following hair dyes: Wella, Revlon, Matrix, L’oréal, Swarzkopf , they are the bests on the market.
Before dyeing your hair, you must know a
few things about your hair, like the absorbency of your
Vol. 20
– dye to same colour, darken, dye to one shade lighter
Vol. 30 – dye to 2-3 shades lighter
Vol. 40 – dye to 3-4 shades lighter
When you dye your hair roots to a lighter
colour, the pigments in your hair change colour to reddish, yellowish. You can
offset this by using ash-blonde, more matt colours.
We call lifeless and dry hair ends matt or
green. To avoid it, mix red, copper or gold mixton in the colour.
I have written only colouring because never
should you dye the whole length and the ends of your already dyed hair just
refresh the colour by colouring (temporary hair colour).
Let me explain:
Natural hair colour is no. 7 blonde (hair
roots)
The colour of the whole hair is no. 8 light
blonde, dry, matt.
Desired hair colour is no. 8 natural light
blonde without gold undertone.
Hair dye plan
Hair roots:
8/ ash -shade hair dye. You will need this
to offset the orange pigments and end up with the desired natural colour. Use
vol. 20 oxidizer to lighten one shade.
Length of hair and hair ends:
Refresh your colour by using no. 9 hair
colour + red mixton colour (don’t use no.8 light blonde, because it may result
in over pigmentation and the length of your hair is not faded but only dull).
Add 1 unit: 15 g
hair colour + 2 cm
red mixton + 2 units of developer.
You can make you hair shiny by doing this
and don’t be afraid, it won’t get red. (always go for a shade lighter colour to
refresh original colour if not faded)
If you dyed your hair with colour no. 8
light blonde than your hair roots would have a shiny gold undertone and the
rest of your hair and hair ends would become darker thanks to the absorbency
and dryness of your hair. It would be more matt too and could end up with a
greenish undertone.
