Hair colour advise

[Sel]

Which colour/tone will be the nearest that I could use to achieve Kate winslet’s hair colour?

The base/natural colour at the moment is 80-90 % grey and the ends are the old highlights 12/03 and 9/7 but faded quite a bit almost looking one colour and dull.

I’m using koleston perfect by Wella.

Any advice would be great?

I'd probably do 9/0 + 10/38 +6%
8/38 +8/0 and I'd you want the darker colour underneath I'd use 7/03

Would you say the lightest around kates face is more 9/0+10/38? - also will this cover the grey fully with out making it transparent because it’s grey?

I want to slowly go lighter therefore I don’t want to add darker tones.

Do you think I can do 12/03 12% and 9/0 + 10/38 6% ?

12/03 won't cover white. Anything above a 9 is not guaranteed to give you coverage of white hair. A ver low bleach might be better, blondor + 1.9% maybe?

Ahh okay, much darker than I initially thought.
I'd definitely do the bleach and 1.9% or 3% as the highlight and then maybe 12/89 + 12% for the base. Or use 8/38 + 8/1 + 12%

Is these colours you have mentioned for the Kate winslet look?

I was going to use 9/0 + 10/38 9%
And 12/03 with 12% because she wants to go lighter gradually.

I was using 8/03 as the darkest tones in her previous highlights. And she wants to get rid of that.

She's naturally a base 5 if not a 4 it's going to be hard to lift her hair and get the right tone. She's going to throw a lot of orange when lifted. So you need to take that in to consideration when choosing your colours to lift with.
No matter what shade you chose the end result will always be warm because of how dark she is, but you need to anticipate the extra warmth that will show up as soon as the "brown" top coat is removed and exposes the underlying warmth.
