level system breakdown + how to find your hair level and tone.
key points:
•american level system= 1-10
•level measures the lightness/darkness
•1=black, 10=brightest blonde
•level is the first number on a color box/bottle, the letter represents tone (example 5R = level 5 with red)
•meaning of tones on hair color boxes:
N= Natural (or neutral, contain a balance of warm & cool tones)
A= Ash
B= Beige
G= Gold
C= Copper
R= Red
M= Mahogany
V= Violet
•N series is the most commonly used, great for grey coverage (20 volume developer always for grey)
• When finding your level, take a piece of hair, fan it out, and match it to the color chart. You will assign it a number 1-10, that will be your hair color level.
