Thank you Leslie, I wasn't sure what Redken Blonding gels were! Ok, the UL series with double 40 is the ideal way to lift 4 levels. If starting with a level 6, UL-A will cut through the brass, but will still leave a slightly warm undertone. This could be used if the client understands she will still have a minimal amount of warmth, and doesn't mind it. I'm a natural level 6, and do not like warmth in my blond, so the only way I'm going to get a completley cool result is by pre-lightning. And, I also spray the hair with a protein spray prior to pre-lightning to prevent further damage. |
