What proportions of bleach and 20 volume developer should be used to lighten hair color?

Good question but there's really no exact measurement for bleach + developer. I usually just "eye" it and I tend to prefer a creamier mixture. A thicker mixture is faster, but it tends to swell too quickly and is more difficult to work with especially when doing foil highlights, so I opt for a more creamy consistency.

Do you have to bleach brown hair to make it blonde?
Basically....yes. If your hair is very dark then there is no other way except to bleach it. There are some hair dyes that contain bleach in them as well as color so you don't end up with some crazy orange result. Some dies will lighten your color nicely, but it won't be blond. If you have light brown hair and have never dyed it before, find the lightest blond hair dye and try that--it should lighten your color to at least a dirty blond.

You should have prelighten your hair first. I'm not sure of your hair type but I would not recommend a 40 strength developer. It is strong & will lighten your hair pretty fast, the end result, dry & brittle. Start off with a 20 or 30 developer. Start at the back with your 20 working your way up.After, rinse,shampoo & condition. Towel dry & apply you some red temporary hair color over the high lighted areas. Let it remain for about 20 to 30 minutes & rinse & style.Be sure to condition often or moisturize.If you have already tried once, wait a Few months before applying bleach again. If you haven't used bleach yet , but have shampooed your hair, wait at least two weeks as bleached needs to be applied to dry hair. Things you will need.

Which developer level should be used with paul mitchell hair color product?
It depends on your natural color and the desired color. And a lot of other variables. Are you lightening your hair, covering grey or just going for a different color. Standard strength is 20 volume. Higher lift colors often require 30 or 40 volume. You should get a consultation with the establishment that sold you the haircolor. if you have colored your hair in the past and want to go lighter, you will need to remove the old haircolor first, usually with bleach. Haircolor will not lighten the artificial color molecules in your hair, only will lighten your natural color. If this is the case, I highly recommend going to a salon for your color. Good luck.
