Matte brown/khaki brown?

[StephSantiLDN]

Hi!

I’m looking for the ideal Matt brown formula using koleston special mix 0/88 or 0/28
My client is a natural base 3 and wants to reach a neutral 6 with a hint of green and no red undertones.
I’m unsure of the ratio as usually just to cancel out tones I use 1:10 but in this case should I bump it to 2:10? So .. 60g of 6 & 10g of 0/28 with 40vol?

Any help will be very much appreciated
Thanks in advance!

Usually we use rule of 11.
So just to create neutral you would need 2.5g of 0/28for every 30g of 6/0.
So if you used 10g of 0/28 +60g of 6/0 that shoukd be more than enough!
