QuoteReplyTopic: Orange/Brassy Hair HELP! Posted: June 14 2005 at 10:33pm
Here is where my hair is right now...I'm kinda stuck...
It's way more orange and brassy than it looks in this pic, this is in indoor lighting...
It's still very healthy (ends need trimming)
so how do I get not lighter, but get to more of an ash about the same level?
You need a color with a blue base. You can get that at a beauty
supply shop and will have to buy developer to go with. If you
choose a color with a blue base that's about the same shade as you have
(and want) you should be okay. But still, do test strands to make
sure you get the timing right so nothing gets a bluish or greenish
tint. It looks like the hair in the front is slightly less orange
so be sure to test strand any places that may be a little different in
color from other places because if any of it is yellow, it will come
out green (violet based dyes counter yellow). You can't tell what
base is in boxed colors, so if you don't want to fool with this (which
may or may not be tricky) go to a salon and let them do it.
(Note: I'm not a pro).
