No, 20 volume developer will not darken hair by 3 shades. It will lift & deposit when darkening or lift 2 levels when going lighter.
If you're interested in darkening hair by 3 shades, choose a color that's 3 shades darker than you want to be. You can either mix with 10 volume or 20 volume.
Mixing the dark color with 20 volume will be the most favorable as this will deposit deeper (due to the lifting of the hair's cuticle layer). This will help the color not to fade as quickly as it would if 10 volume were used.
