Product details

Velvetree Natur Color Cream in 8/1 Light Ash Blonde is a permanent tube colour made for both salon and home use. It gives a cool, light blonde result on pre-lightened or naturally light hair and needs a suitable developer and careful strand testing.

Velvetree Natur Color Cream (the listing spells it Velveree in places) is a permanent hair colour in tube form, here in shade 8/1 Light Ash Blonde. The title says it is designed for professional salon and home use. In standard numbering, 8 is light blonde depth and /1 is ash, which means a cool, slightly silvery tone that counters yellow and orange.

Light ash blonde is a popular pick for balayage and global blonde looks, but it is ambitious on natural Indian hair. Most Indian hair sits at level 1 to 4, so you would need significant pre-lightening before a level 8 shade appears. On black hair applied directly, the colour will barely show. On bleached hair, it can act as a toner to soften brassiness.

Because the formula is permanent, it is mixed with an oxidising developer. The title does not mention a developer in the pack, so check the listing and buy the brand-recommended strength if needed. Getting the ratio right affects both lift and tone.

Compared with ready-to-use box blondes, a tube shade gives more control and can be blended with other shades by experienced users. Compared with purple shampoos, it gives a stronger and longer-lasting tone correction. The downside is a higher learning curve, so first-timers may prefer a salon for lightening and toning.

Lightened hair is more fragile, so any toning step should be gentle. Many stylists choose a lower developer strength when using a level 8 shade purely as a toner, as the aim is to deposit cool tone rather than lift further. Ask your stylist about the right approach for your hair, and avoid back-to-back chemical treatments in the same week. Trimming dry ends and using a bond-repair or protein treatment, if suitable for your hair, can keep blonde lengths looking smoother and help the ash tone sit more evenly.

Check tube size, expiry and authenticity on the listing. Always do a 48-hour patch test and strand test; ash shades on very porous ends can turn greyish or patchy. After colouring, use sulphate-free shampoo, a heat protectant before styling and a weekly mask to keep lightened hair healthy in sun and humidity. It was listed around ₹549 at the time of writing.
