I've used majirel, wella, and majiblonde. I didn't really like the results.

I want to use goldwell on brassy roots. The hair color is a golden/platinum blonde, but with a re-growth of a medium brown with a lot of orange pignement. Turns brassy easily.

What color from goldwell can I use, to obtain a more ashy/baby blonde on the roots???

How do I mix it?

(I also saw that goldwell has an extra ash tint mix....how can i use that???

Sorry, I'm not a pro and don't know about the ash tint mix. To counter orange you'd use something with a blue base, to counter red, a green base, and to counter yellow, you'd use a blonde with a violet base. The base is written on the dye, but all of those bases tend to come in colors called "ash" as opposed to "golden". The color itself isn't going to lift medium brown though. Even if you use a 40 volume developer (the highest peroxide), with a high lift shade, you still may not get enough lift, so I'd definitely test strand it.

If you really want platinum whitish hair, hair bleach, then violet toner is probably going to be the route that gives you the healthiest hair (repeated 40 volume use can be very damaging).
