I am lifting red as I am going blonde. It's been a really long time since I've bought bleach. So should I go for prism lites violet, prism lites blue, or loreal quick blue? I am using 30 developer.

^ I agree, violet shades and purple shades will help minimise the orange/brassy tones you'd usually get from bleaching hair although you'll still need to tone it afterwards :)

I was thinking that too. But the quick blue lifts 7 levels where as prism lites violet only lifts 5.

I ended up getting the wella toner t18 but I also got joico violet shampoo as well as violet bleach. I am also going to be using clariftying shampoo before hand. As well as deep conditioning and coconut oil masks.

I wouldn't use 30 volume on your scalp most on scalp Lightner is usually up to 20 volume. You can always do it more then once with 20 volume.
