8.0 is designed to be used on its own not mixed with anything else from the majors line except itself.
The 8.0 is killing off the ash effect of the 8.1, it’s too dense of a colour.
Maybe try even amounts of 8 + 8.1 and like ronray said small fine sections develop for 35 mins and weigh the colour and developer.

If you use a quarter of 8/0 and a quarter of 7/0 you're not going to achieve what you want? It will completely change the tonal quality of the colour and it'll be darker.
I think what me and @Dee5 were suggesting is that you use a quarter of 8 and a quarter of 8/1 with 20vol /6%.
For how much a digital scales cost I really would consider weighing your colour. Before I purchased a salon scales (that weigh as little as 0.5g)I was using a digital kitchen scale, it's not ideal because it weights in whole grams only, but it was better than freehand measuring.

how 20vol should I use

 

[ronray]

Well if the tubes are 60mls then a quarter would be 15g. So you'll be using 30g of tint in total and 30g of 20vol.

Majirel is 50ml and 1:1.5

 

[ronray]

Majirel is 50ml and 1:1.5

My bad, keep thinking wella.
so she would need to use 12.5g 8 +12.5g 8/1 + 37.5g of 20 vol.

 

[AcidPerm]

12.5g isn’t a quarter...

 

[Dee5]

12.5g isn’t a quarter...

It is for Majirel 50ml tube INOA has 60g
Very confusing if your in a hurry!

 

[ronray]

12.5g isn’t a quarter...

It's a quarter of 50g

Yes, my mistake, I think. I assumed the OP meant a quarter within the whole formula, inc the amount of developer. The OP has been fairly unclear throughout this thread about what she is using, so I can only assume she is very inexperienced.

It's definitely been confusing! I took it as a quarter of 8 and a quarter of 8/1. Either way I hope we've helped
