8.1
Hey! I'm eager to try 8.1 but I'm unsure if it will work on my hair since I have a warm base and light lengths. I want a more even cool color without the warmth at the base. I don't mind if my hair gets a little darker, but I don't want it to turn green. The question is whether 8.1 can work on my hair or if there's another color/toning I can use. I'm attaching pictures in daylight, bathroom light & in sunlight. Best, Helena.

October StockholmTrue Colour5 Vol Colour Activator 150 ml & Colour 100 ml 8.1 Ash Natural Light Blond
October Stockholm 8.1 Ash Natural Light Blond
True Colour is a professional hair colour developed and used by hairdressers that gives a natural, even, and glossy result. The formula is enriched with Macadamia Oil, Ceramide A2 and Cranberry for extra care and shine.
The numbers on True Colour indicates both the colour level and tone. The first number shows how dark or light the shade is, while the second indicates whether the tone is warm, cool or neutral.
8.1 is recommended for those who:
- Are lightness level is 8. If you are darker, you need to bleach your hair first; if you are very light blonde, you need to mix in equal parts of color 8.36 to avoid green tones. - Want an ashy tone
True Colour is always used together with an Activator, which activates the pigments and determines how deeply the colour adheres to the hair. Measure the amount of colour cream and mix with Activator until smooth. Use 5 vol for toning, 10 vol for colouring (can be mixed from equal parts 5 vol and 20 vol), and 20 vol for lightening or gray coverage.
Apply to towel-dried hair and leave for 15–30 minutes, depending on the desired result.
Examples:
- Toning: 40 g colour cream + 60 g Activator 5 vol
- Colouring: 40 g colour cream + 30 g Activator 5 vol + 30 g Activator 20 vol
- Lightening: 50 g colour cream + 75 g Activator 20 vol
- Gray coverage: 50 g colour cream + 50 g Activator 20 vol
Each tube contains 100 ml of colour cream and 150 ml of Activator, enough product for long and thick hair. An opened tube can be stored in a dark place, at room temperature for at least five years.
