Here the strength of H202 determines the lightening. In order for the hair not to become darker, 3% and 12% are used for maximum lightening. Lightens up to 4-5 tones.
You want never To achieve platinum blonde hair with only light color, you must bleach your hair beforehand.
The difference between dyeing your hair light and bleaching it is that lightening extracts some pigments and adds pigment. While bleaching only extracts pigments. With a lighter lightening, a lightening is more gentle and leaves a natural result. You never get a very cold end result with a lightening, as the golden natural pigments will shine through a little.
If you want a natural result, you should always use a color with cold pigments to neutralize the golden pigments that are naturally present in hair.
