• Compare client’s hair to the level swatches (1–10).

• Note if they are warm, neutral, or cool at their natural level.

🔹 Step 2: Identify % of Grey

• 0–25% = can usually blend with permanent colour.

• 25–50% = may need more natural base tone added for coverage.

• 50–75% = formula must prioritize coverage + tone.

• 75–100% = requires full grey coverage strategy (often double natural tone).
