Any hairdressers or hair dye experts?

I've had a huge colour change and I'm worried its a bit light. I'm going to live with it for a few days before I decide.

My hairdresser has told me what to buy if I want to make it a smidge darker.

My base is an 8 at the moment and she's said to put in some 7.

Thing is, I've looked online and there is a 7.0 and a 7.00.

Anyone know which one I need. I knowi could go back to her but I she's having a rough time at the moment so I don't want to pester her if I can help it. She cut and coloured my hair for nothing so I don't want to start bugging her.

Damn me for just writing down 7 and 8 and not checking.

Years ago when I did hairdressing .00s were for extra coverage for example if you have lots of grey.

It's same colour (.00 is for what dillydolly said) anything that ends in a zero is quite flat/natural be careful it doesn't go khaki.

Thank you.

I'm about 50/50 grey through the top and front but none at the back or underneath, yep Mother Nature loves me!

Think I'll get the .0 rather than the .00.

At the moment I've got 6.3 in there as well its just a whole lot lighter than the very dark colour I was. So the extra base was just to make it a touch darker for now if I want to. It looks great on some lights and not so great in others.

Getting used to it being a foot shorter too!
