I live in South Korea and the hairdressers here are unused to European dark blond hair.
Last summer, for kicks, I began adding a little peroxide occasionally too my shampoo, the result was great, subtle lightening, not to much damage.
Fast forward one year, and I'm no longer happy with how light it is.
I want to do the reverse and go slowly darker, I was able to purchase Revlon Professional Revlonissimo over the counter.
The color is only a very little different from my blond now (9.3).
I was wondering if I can simply add a small amount of the creme-gel color (sans Developer) too my shampoo? Would this work to quietly alter the color of my hair?
Any help or suggestions is appreciated.

Chances are it won't do anything because it needs the developer to oxidize and either lift or deposit the color.
