“This typically only happens when you are coloring your hair darker from blonde, especially light blonde to black,” Everett explained further, “The reason this happens is simple; blonde hair has a lot of yellow in it. Black has a lot of blue in it. Once combined, you can get the dreaded green cast.

Timing. Timing is 30 minutes for standard color application; 45 minutes for maximum gray coverage and for high-lift shades. Typically, with permanent color, the first 15 minutes provide time for the peroxide and ammonia to open the cuticle and penetrate into the cortex to lighten natural pigment.

The usual exposure time is 35-40 minutes. During the first 15 minutes, ammonia opens the hair scales for color penetration. Between 15-30 minutes, hair takes over the desired color. And the last 5-10 minutes, care and protective substances for the health of hair are activated.

Permanent hair colors technically last until the color grows out, or until you recolor your client's hair – but they can fade over time. It may take anywhere between 6-12 weeks for the fading to be visible.
