Yes, you can use 20 volume developer instead of 10 volume when coloring hair, but it will lift the hair color more significantly. While 10 volume is typically used for deposit-only color or to enhance existing color, 20 volume can lighten the hair by one to two levels, making it suitable for gray coverage or lighter shades. However, using a higher volume developer may lead to more damage, so it’s essential to consider the hair's condition and desired outcome before making the switch.
