20 or 30 Volume Developers? Printed From: HairBoutique.com Category: Hair Talk Forum Name: General Hair Talk Forum Description: A free wheeling discussion of hair related topics.

Posted By: Unregistered Guest Subject: 20 or 30 Volume Developers? Date Posted: July 05 2000 at 2:09pm I'm just curious about something. I've noticed that Volume Developers range from 10% to 40% and I'm wondering what each percentage can do for your hair color, and what % should you use for what situation? Many of us hair coloring amateurs assume that the higher the %, the higher the color lift you will get, but I have read that that doesn't necessarily end up being the case, and all you may accomplish is very damaged hair the higher you go on the % of a volume developer. Can someone please educate me on this. Thanks so much! Replies:
