I am a hairstylist and have never heard of peroxide 6 percent. Normally peroxides come in 10vol 20vol 30vol and 40vol. If you are going darker or trying to cover greys you use a 10vol. If you are trying to achieve a lighter look you would use the other three volumes 20-30-40. The difference between them is how long you want your hair to process and what level of lightness you want to achieve. The higher the volume (30-40vol) processes your hair faster and can get it lighter. I would recommend using a 20 volume to start if you want to lighten. It is a safe way to start out.

6% peroxide is also known as 20 volume developer as 3% is 10 volume, 9% is 30 volume, and 12% is 40 volume.

Also......for gray coverage...always use 20 volume. 10 volume will NOT cover gray hair.
