Strawberry Blonde At-Home Hair Color Formula

Here is my updated Strawberry Blonde at-home hair color formula for gorgeous light reddish blonde hair with no hot roots! I have been experimenting with different dye combinations and this one really seems to work for me.

For the first time ever, I am combining liquid and gel dyes, which has been the key for the roots coming out really soft and natural looking.

These results lean a bit more golden than my other results, so I do like to maintain the red with a color depositing mask once a week.

STEP 1

I brush my hair starting at the ends, then brush the middle and finally top to bottom. Once everything is smoothed out, I apply either a few drops of Anablue Treatment Oil or jojoba oil.

STEP 2

Add 1.4 oz of liquid 6RG and 1 oz of 8G gel into the mixing bottle. This is 2.4 ounces total of color.

STEP 3

Then I add 4.8 ounces of the Level 20 developer. I like the Pravana brand, but you can use any brand you like.

STEP 4

Start to shake it up (with a finger over the open end) until the both shades and the developer have completely mixed.

I like to start at the back of my head and bring the bottle forward along my part, until I get to my forehead. This way I get the back of my head colored as evenly as possible.
