Levels
and Texture
As a general rule, says Joico Vero K-PAK International Artistic
Director Sue Pemberton, you can lift hair one-to-two levels
per volume of peroxide. So, 20-volume lifts one-to-two levels, 30-volume
lifts two-to-three levels and 40-volume (the maximum amount of lift)
will lighten three-to-four levels. However, your client’s texture
may alter those formulas slightly. Fine hair lifts more quickly, while
thick, coarse hair tends to be more resistant. Therefore, a 20-volume
formula on fine hair might produce two levels of lift, while the same
formula on heavy, coarse strands might only yield one or one-and-a-half
levels of lift, so analyze texture carefully before formulating.
