Question regarding 6% and time Printed From: HairBoutique.com Category: Hair Talk Forum Name: Hair Color Forum Description: The tricks and tribulations of changing your hair color URL: https://talk.hairboutique.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=76983 Printed Date: July 19 2025 at 1:36pm Topic: Question regarding 6% and time Posted By: brunettebrassy Subject: Question regarding 6% and time Date Posted: July 24 2013 at 3:07pm So I have found a great combo for a shade almost similar to my natural color, to hide the grey. I use Weleda, Koleston 1/4=5/7, 1/4=4/77 & 1/2=8/1 I find this gives me the right shade of brown without being too dark and yet keeps the brassiness out. However, my question is regarding the 6% I use and length of activation time: will there be a difference in the color if I keep it on for longer than the recommended 35-40 minutes? Will the 8/1 have a stronger effect if its kept on longer and give my hair a slightly lighter shade? If I wanted to lighten up a bit for the summer... Hope someone can help me out here! Thanks
