Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Quality and Gentle on Sensitive Scalps! - I’ve been using the Ion Sensitive Scalp 20 Volume Creme Developer for a while now, and it’s hands down one of the best developers I’ve tried. It’s gentle enough for my sensitive scalp—no burning or irritation—which is a huge plus. The consistency is perfect: creamy and easy to mix with my hair color, giving consistent and vibrant results every time. The 32 oz size lasts me quite a while, making it great value for the price. If you have a sensitive scalp but don’t want to compromise on color performance, this product is definitely worth trying!
Review: Don't waste your time with bleaching kits like I did - I used this in combination with Wella Powder Lightener for Blondes and the result was incredible. Don't waste your time with bleaching kits like I did, just get a bottle of this and some bleach powder and paste an ample amount of this stuff on your head. It literally lifted my hair from medium dark brown to a vibrant copper shade in 15 mins!!! The ratio of bleach powder to developer I used was 1:1.5 but it may be different for you depending on the bleach powder you use. I wanted my hair to go copper, so I didn't put toner in after, but I would recommend toner if you don't want orange/yellow tones showing up in your hair. This stuff doesn't burn the scalp by the way. It smells okay but I would still use it in a ventilated area because it is peroxide after all. Damage is very minimal (not noticeable) if you use the 20 vol. I think it's probs better to just bleach your head repeatedly over time using 20 vol rather than plaster 30-40 vol on it at once. Just use plenty of conditioner and hair oils and wash your head with shampoo less regularly than before to keep damage to a minimum. This is also a great purchase because you get a lot of product and it will last you a very long time (and save you tonnes of money). METHOD I USED: I put A LOT of product into my hair (so much so that it looked as though I was shampooing it) and my scalp didn't itch/burn/tingle at all. After I lathered the bleach in, I covered my head with cling wrap and used a hair dryer to create some heat to quicken the lightening process. This is the 3rd time I've bleached my hair and this is what I've learned: 1 - Use ample product for an even result. 2 - Use a comb to brush bleach into hair so you don't miss any spots 3 - Start with the tips and end with the roots (roots develop MUCH faster) 4 - Wrap your head up in plastic and blow dry it on a high heat setting to quicken lightening process 5 - Don't wash hair with shampoo for at least a week prior to bleaching. The oilier the better! HOPE THIS HELPS AND HAPPY BLEACHING!!! :)
