Artists Tips
IS YOUR COLOR TOO LIGHT?
Try adding 20-50% of a shade that is one level darker to your formula. For finer hair texture lowering the Welloxon Perfect Developer strength may work.
ARE YOUR GRAYS MORE TRANSLUCENT AT THE ROOTS?
Switch to XX/0 intense resistant cover shades instead of X/0. Alternatively, add 20-50% of a shade that is one level darker. Use the maximum development time: 40 minutes OR 25 minutes with a Climazon
IS YOUR COLOR TOO WARM?
Add 20-50% of our new /1 ash shades, they are slightly more intense to boost the pure ash tone. With darker levels, the /2 shades are matte and designed to neutralize warmth.
IS YOUR COLOR TOO DARK AT THE ROOTS?
Add 20-50% of a shade that is one level lighter to your formula.
ARE THE NATURAL SHADES LOOKING TOO MATTE?
Add some tone to your formula, e.g. instead of 7/0 on its own, try using 7/0 + 7/31. This will allow a more natural expression of the shade with still up to 100% gray coverage.
