This is determined by the percentage of gray and your client’s desired look.For lift and color in one: For super-blonde color that lifts and tones, use Koleston Perfect Special Blondes; a range of high lift hues that should be mixed 1:2 with Welloxon Perfect. Use 9% developer for three levels of lift, and 12% for three to five levels of lift. 4. Start Where Gray is Most Prominent Once you’ve painted through the hair in balayage strokes, allow the roots, mid-lengths and ends to develop. Then, rinse and neutralize with Blondor Seal & Care to reveal soft, seamless, painterly color.

For up to 100% gray coverage: Go for permanent formulas, like Illumina Color or Koleston Perfect, which provide complete coverage to the target area. If you’re using KP, make sure you mix in a Pure Naturals shade. Add ⅓ Pure Naturals on hair that’s 30-50% gray and ½ Pure Naturals for hair that's 50-100% gray. Perfect results every time.

You can also try semi-permanent Color Fresh for up to 30% coverage. It’s important to note that not all grey hair takes on a coarse, dry texture. In fact, often, those silver strands can be very fine and a little wispy. However – coarse or not – hair tends to produce less oil over time (just as pigment decreases), which is why you might see a wiry finish. It just means the strands are parched. For up to 70% gray coverage: Opt for demi-permanent Color Touch or Color Touch Plus. These dreamy demis create a glossy color result in an array of blonde hues, and last for up to 24 washes. But, how do you know what shade of blonde toner to use? Start by looking at the underlying pigment the lightener has exposed. If the hair hasn’t yet been lightened, preempt the tone that might appear as a result of lifting. Next, apply the root coverage, making sure you saturate the regrowth area with your client’s chosen shade. Allow color to develop for 40 minutes (or up to 25 minutes under heat), then shampoo and neutralize. To revive lengths and ends, finish with a glossing service for soft tone and a boost of shine.
