Advice on lowlight? (wella)

[Buttercup Honey]

Hi all,
Been quiet this week but that's suited me fine as I started painting:0)
New client to colour on fri morn and really could do with a brain or 2 to pick please.
She's 85% White (base 5/0 natural colour). Ends are ashy 9/0. Colour overall is bit too ash for her colouring. I am thinking of using 99/0 with 6% on roots and putting few lowlights through front area. Wud like result for lowlights of around 8/7. Thinking I maybe need some red to fill ash....maybe I've taken on more than I can chew??? I know she was getting her colour done in salon but no idea what it was except not wella, loreal or redken. Sorry for being a headwrecker tonight but im sure some of you are up for the challenge:0) thanks so much in advance x

Hi Coral, thanks very much for youre reply
I did use the 99/0 this morning and it looked a bit brassy when wet but have to say it dried out lovely and I used 7/37 and 7/0 in a few meche for lowlights (first time doing meche and colour together) and it went well, although I think I would use darker lowlight next time.
Client was very happy anyway, roll on refresher course:lol:
