Yes. A law of hair coloring is that when covering grey(white) hair... You must have a percentage of your formula containing the N series in their natural hair color.
I go by matching %. So 25%= 1/4 of your formula should be 6N.
This is because we must replace the missing pigment in the white hair & the N,/.0 series has a balanced amount of red, yellow, blue pigment in it. When all 3 primary colors are mixed together, results are always shade of neutral browns through beiges as we go up to lighter levels.
