1) I achieved beautiful lowlights on relaxed and previous lightened hair, and the hair still looked shiny! I performed the lowlights one week after the lightening, but simply beautiful final results. I used the 6NB.
2) I had to tone the brassiness of a loc client after performing a corrective color service from an out of town colorist. I used this liquid demi-permanent color with about 10 minutes of heat since the hair was wet when I applied the color. I achieved fantastic results with the 7ICE and layering of the 6NB.
Because this demi-permanent color uses the 5 volume developer, I still am uncomfortable using it on the same day as a relaxer, but I am excited about testing it on gray coverage for those whose hair is not strong enough for creme demi-permanent haircolor.
The Beth Minardi line does have a cream demi-permanent color as well as a permanent haircolor. I like the permanent haircolor, but I have not tried the cream demi-permanent haircolor yet. I was using Goldwell Colorance which is a cream demi-permanent haircolor, but I have not adjusted to their newest Colorance reformulation.
Honestly, the 1:1 ratio is a no brainer. It is gentle and effective. I am simply thrilled about this gentle liquid color.
