How are you doing this, is it strand or weft. I woud go with the 18/22 maybe order a bit of the 16 and see if it works. do they cary a darker mix ?

well it looks like docs site doesnt care the bodywave pretipped in 24. So my client is thinking of ordering #16 for the darker color. Would that be too obviously dark compared to the other colors? (613 and 22) She wants lowlights, but doesnt want them to be REALLY   contrasting, just a little bit to add dimension. They also carry an 18/22, but its striped, not a blend. which do you recommend she order? thanks!

I tend to agree with you marie. I like the more blended look myself with just a little color popping here and there.I think it looks more natural.  But alot of people do like the chunky lowlights which looks kewl too...just not for me!

I agree 613 and 22 but do they have a mix shade like 18/22 or14/24  and there are others. I like to throw those in for a more blended look instead of a solid darker color.

I can only see part of that picture but Im assuming its Jessica.

She is definitely a #613 or a very light #22 color range. If I remember correctly Docs #22 is very light. ( I used it A LONG time ago) All of those colors above would work well together. For Jessicas look Id use the #613, #22 and some #24. The #27 would give some beautiful lowlights but I dont think for Jessicas look Id use much #27

Im wondering if anyone has any feedback on this color chart on Doc's site, for human hair, and the difference between 613, 22 and 24? are the ash shades *really* ashy? I dont want my  client to end up with a greenish cast to her hair. Also which of these shades would be the best match to the color in this pic http://www.sweetkisses.net/images/girlfriendjune04/images/01 .jpg

Should I use just one allover shade to achive that color, or mix several for a highlighted/lowlighted effect, and if so which ones?should i stick with the ash shades, or mix in some 27? thanks for your input, Im just not at all used to working with blonde hair! and I need the answers quickly so my client and I can go ahead and order her hair. Thanks so much in advance!
