But you didn't have to double process to get that 8?  That's amazing

a sample of the three would fabulous.  looks like its about right for me.

any heat?  30 minute timing?

mmm I may have to play with the hair when mine arrives just to see if I can double process it into 613.  I'm really sick to want that challenge...

I cant believe thats a twenty two.Looks so light it almost has a pink tone to it.But maybe its just the lighting.How do they feel? They look silky.Especially the lighter which seems funny to me.

I don't have them. Not gonna have them either after the reviews here (thanks everyone). The first photo top left #22 is the one I wouldn't mind getting for a friend to see how it is but the other stuff just doesn't cut the mustard visually.

Hiya Mocha,

NO I didn't have to double process to get either of the browns, and I'm willing to bet I can get a bunch more of the warm colors and reds with experimentation. Yes I used heat but only on the 8.

I've been able to get to 613 with bleach only -- but it's really tricky timing, heat, and coverage-wise. I'm thinking I need a wetter bleaching mixture.  I didn't have enough hair to re-experiment. But the hair still felt fine except for about the last 1/8" which I trimmed, and I treated it after bleaching with a blend of polymers, elastins, amino acids, and collagen, with heat. I was so excited about the blonde colors I achieved that I immediately put them in my hair!

As just mentioned in this board, getting too pink is a problem. . .it seems quite common because of the violet undertones that are there to cut the orange.  I join you in your sickness to get to *just* the right color!!

Anyway this is way off of amm's topic so when I get a lot of this perfected I'll post the info in a thread!

Amm: Your hair link is interesting. Re: the double drawn, it concurs with what my Indian guy told me -- i.e. that to get the double drawn hair, they end up with about a 10% yield. For example they start with 10 kg of hair to end up with 1 kg for double drawn.
