Impossible! 10 and 12 will only tone, not add depth, you need to come down to a 8 or 9

You'll find it's prob faded to a 10 you won't get a 10 to take to white

It works out that they are on the same level ie a 10. Like someone with a natural base of 5 wanting a 5/4 only the copper tone is gonna work not the base colour. So if you were to apply 10/3 only the gold would grab on.
So we go in with 9 to keep the brightness AND cover at the same time.
So if it was me and without seeing the clients hair I would go in with 9/13 or your colour brands equivalent. This will ensure coverage and if it is still a little too warm for the client you could apply an ash semi, and visually develope

Hi there.

I would apply Igora Royal 9-1 and 9-0 with 6% developer in a 1:1:1 ratio on the roots first. Leave for around 15-20 mins, then depending on how warm her blonde mid lengths and ends are, maybe apply just 9-1 with maybe a few cm of 0/11 with 3% developer to the rest of the hair and process for a further 20 mins.

If her blonde mid lengths and ends are very warm, ie golden/copper I could use the 9-2, but would keep a close eye during the rest of the development in case it starts to go a bit too ashen/dark.

If the result is good, then next time I would just tint her re-growth with the 9-1 and 9-0, then water down the remaining tint with a little warm water and re-fresh the rest of her hair (if faded) for 10-15 mins.

:biggrin:
