Best Answer

If your hair is naturally dark brown and has not been colored, use 20 volume.

If your hair is colored dark brown, you will have difficulties trying to lighten it to the desired level and may need to visit a hair salon for a corrective color consultation.

Is it possible to dye your hair light brown when its dark?

yes it is possible. If the hair is colored dark, it will require a lightener in order to lift the color and then the light brown color will need to be added. If the hair is naturally dark, a light brown color mixed with at least a 20 volume developer will need to be used.


Which is better 20 or 30 volume creme developer when highlightening hair?

It depends on how light you want to lift the current color in your hair. For light colored hair such as light brown to a normal dark brown you can use a 20. But if your hair is a very dark brown that looks almost close to black you would use a 30 or maybe even a 40 if it's really dark. A 20 developer will lift your hair color twice as much and a 30 developer,3 times as much. Lifting means making it lighter. You can watch the color as it processes and once it reaches the desired lightness you rinse to make it stop processing. Most hair dressers start with a 20 volume developer but it still depends on the current color of your hair.

What volume developer should be used to add red highlight to dark brown hair?

It depends on how dark your current color is and how light you want to go. Try using 30 volume. It's strong enough to do the job but won't kill your hair the same way a stronger developer would, as long as it's used properly. If you're hesitant, try seeing a stylist.

What will happen if you bleach your hair and two days after you dye it with ash mahogany dark brown?

Depending on how porous your hair is, it will probably grab this color and be very, very dark and greenish.If you want to go back to brown, you could use a Level 5NG with a Red filler.This is difficult to do at home and should really be handled by a professional, but you will need to replace the missing pigment that the bleach removed from your hair. Using a Level 5 Neutral Gold and adding Red, with a 10 volume cream developer, should give you a nice rich light brown.
