Bremod Hair Color 8.10 is the brand's highly popular Ash Brown shade, designed to give hair a soft, smoky, and cool-toned brown finish. Since it is a permanent color cream, it must be mixed in a 1:1 ratio with an oxidizing cream (developer) to activate the color. Choosing Your Oxidizer (Developer) The final result of the 8.10 shade depends heavily on the strength of the developer you mix it with: • 6% Oxidizer (20 Vol): Best for covering gray or white hairs, or if you are aiming for a darker tone-on-tone result. • 9% Oxidizer (30 Vol): Ideal for standard fashion colors. It lightens the hair by 2 to 3 levels, making it the most popular choice for lifting virgin or dark treated hair to a visible ash brown. • 12% Oxidizer (40 Vol): The strongest level, lifting hair by 4 to 5 levels. It is used to achieve the maximum lightening effect on naturally dark or virgin black hair, though it requires careful application to avoid scalp irritation. How to Apply 8.10 Bremod 1. Preparation: Mix one 100ml tube of Bremod 8.10 color cream with 100ml of your chosen oxidizing cream in a non-metallic bowl until smooth. Do not wash your hair right before application. 2. Application: Section your hair. Apply the mixture first to the mid-lengths and ends (leaving about 1 cm from the scalp) and let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes. 3. Roots & Processing: Apply the remaining mixture to your roots and leave it on for another 15 to 25 minutes (total processing time should be around 45 minutes). 4. Rinse: Perform a strand test to verify the color depth, then rinse thoroughly with water, followed by shampoo and conditioner. Note: Like most ash tones, if your hair is naturally very dark or has strong warm undertones, the ash effect might look more like a neutral brown on the first try unless the hair is pre-bleached to a lighter level. Are you planning to apply this color over virgin dark hair, previously colored hair, or bleached hair? I can give you tips on how to get the most vibrant ash tone for your specific hair history.
