Salon Care, 20 Volume Creme Developer, 4 ounces

Product Information

Condition your hair: After rinsing out the toner, apply a deep conditioner to your hair. Doing so will hydrate your hair and restore its natural shine. It’ll also make your hair softer and more manageable. A 20-volume strength developer will open the cuticles smoothly, allowing your toner to penetrate more easily. It’s now time to mix developer with the bleach. To do so, add small amounts of developer and use a paintbrush or other brush designated for this mixture to combine the ingredients gradually. Although you can add all the developer at once, we discourage you from doing so.

Works similarly to a Volume 20 developer, except it lifts a hair starting color by 2-3 levels and works best when a desired color is not more than 2 levels lighter than the existing hair shade. A Volume 30 developer is strong enough for most individuals to notice scalp irritation, though it allows you to achieve a 3-4 level lift with bleach. 40 Volume (12%) Developer Wella T18 is a blue-tinted, permanent liquid hair color for the home and salon. It adds depth and dimension to blonde shades with blue, gray, or violet undertones. If you’re going for a more natural appearance, it’s best to bleach your hair when it’s wet. Bleaching your hair dry will create bolder colors. However, wet hair is especially fragile, so it’s best only to let an experienced professional bleach wet hair. So, How Do You Mix Bleach and Developer? So if you are trying to go lighter and the ends are blonde and porous you should use a lower volume developer or shorten the processing time at the ends by only applying in the last 5-10 minutes or so. Without wasting your time, Wella permanent toner can definitely be damaging to your hair. In fact, any hair product that changes the internal structure of the hair can leave your tresses worse off.The finer your hair is, the less time it will take to process and lighten up to 2 color levels. You may find that your hair is fully lightened after 10 minutes of processing time with 20 volume developer if you have very fine (or blonde) hair. Both 20 volume and 30 volume developers are effective because they penetrate deeper into the hair stalk and oxidize the natural colour in your hair. This oxidation is detrimental to your hair, which is why it's critical to prepare your hair as much as possible. The more you can prevent the oxidation process, the better.

Overexposure to the bleaching process can also cause hair loss and breakage due to the chemical’s significant damage. Instead of repeatedly bleaching fragile hair until it reaches the desired lightness, stylists often use toner to correct the brassy shade.

Stay watchful and be precise with your timing when you bleach. Going even one minute over the suggested processing time can be the difference between ending up with healthy, lightened hair and straw-like, damaged hair.
