Yes, you can use a 30 volume developer instead of a 20 volume developer, but it will lighten the hair more dramatically and may lead to more damage. A 30 volume developer is typically used for significant lifts, while a 20 volume developer offers a gentler option for less lift and is better for covering gray hair. Be sure to adjust your processing time and consider the condition of the hair to avoid potential damage.

It is important to note that altering the volume of developer can affect the outcome of hair color or chemical treatments, so it is recommended to use the developer volume specified in the product instructions for best results.
