If you're pleased with the quality of the lush hair but can't find a cool enough colour match in what amm stocks yet, I think it was Kalika that was taking packets of un-red (it's basically a drabber) from Sally's and mixing them with deep conditioner, and basting her hair in that for a while to cut gold tones in her blonde hair. Maybe this will work for you?

I have the #10 and the #14 Lush hair which are warmer than
my ashy colored honey/wheat brown highlights but probably
the closest match in that line. I would need to see the other #12
, #16 and #18 shades to be sure as all the color lines are all
different. It's harder to read on a computer screen when
choosing colors. I'm sure Amm will get back to you and
compare all the shades.

I looked on my Bohyme ring.....(from Ebonyline)
#10 Lush is a tad warmer than #10 Bohyme but a tad lighter
than a Bohyme #30

The #14 Lush did not match anything close enough on the
Bohyme ring to mention.


On the Softwear ring....
#10 Lush is a tad warmer than a #8 Softwear or the #6/13
Softwear

#14 Lush is closest but a tad warmer than the #14 Softwear


On the EP European/Italian ring....
#10 Lush is a tad darker than a #9 European/Italian but much
lighter than a #10 European/Italian

#14 Lush did not match anything close.......it was lighter than a
#13 European/Italian but not as gold as the #14 European/
Italian

It's the topic titled: My lush install is finally done! *pics*

The photos are halfway down the page of the topic, after scrolling past
several posts... Amm was actually the one who posted them for me,
because I couldn't figure it out!   

I emailed Amm about the colors on Monday? I think, but haven't gotten a
reply yet... she's probably 1bzlady with everybody trying to order their
hair & shrinkies before the holidaze.

I posted a few days ago my final pics of my lush install with #18, #18/22,
and #613, and as you can tell from the pics, when my hair is down, the
colors match great. But when I put #18 right next to my own hair, #18
looks very strawberry blonde next to my natural ash/taupe/beige blonde.

So, does anyone know which Lush color amm offers that is similar to #18,
but more cool toned like ash blonde? It looks on my computer monitor
that #14 Caramel might be, can't say for sure, but wanted to know if
there were any other ash blonde ladies out there with Lush hair who
might know.

What do the color #'s refer to, anyway? If I purchased a Bohyme color
ring, like from yourhairshop.com, would the colors be the same? (Though
I've heard color #'s can sometimes be different between other
companies.) Any color help would be appreciated!

Edited for spelling
