Hello guys, I want hairdressers advice, I keep getting messed up by hairdressers who keep getting the wrong hair colour. I have to go my roots every 4-6 weeks to cover my greys but I’m using semi permanent colour because ultimately I want to go lighter and put highlights in.
I found the perfect colour but it’s a box dye. Can anyone professionals, based on the colour and number of box dye attached, tell me how to use professional hair dye to achieve same colour.

Hi, hairdresser here. I specialize in color, 2 + decades experience.
The shade you have shown in the photo on the box is a pearl tone.
Pearl tones contain pigments of blue, pink, violet.
If you are 10% and more grey, and just slapping this on, the grey will pick up the pearl undertones giving it a violet effect, because our greys have not been filled.
This shade would not be suitable for you in this case.
