Wella Color Touch

I am thinking of trying this product, but need some help. I don't know if the product comes with any instructions regarding doing an allergy test or strand test. Can anyone tell me how I would go about doing those?

the instructions come on the inside of the box, so you'll have to slit on side open to read them
includes application & allergy directions - if you buy from KillerStrands you'll get very detailed instructions

I'm confused on the developer. I asume I want the one with the lowest volume of peroxide, since I really don't want or need to lift color. If I buy from that site, what level of developer does the color come with?

you have a choice of either 6 Volume, 10 Volume, or 13 Volume.
all of which won't lift, they just open the cuticle to let the color rest on your natural pigment.

I'd choose either 10 or 13 cause they'll last longer than the 6 volume.
because it may wash out very quickly with the 6.

I see someone on Ebay is selling it with a choice of the following developers:

1.9% Developer/Emulsion Fluid
or
4.0% Developer/Emulsion Fluid

So these two would be a very bad choice?

1.9 is about 6 volume, and 4.0 is about 20 volume(I think. 3% is 12 volume IIRC) A regular semi perm is 20 volume, and a permanent is generally 30-40 volume.

either one would be a fine choice, the standard permanent is 20 Volume ( 6%)

Seems like the 1.9 would be fine, since I don't need to lift any color.

Well, I have purchaed two tubes of the Rich Autumn Red color. So hard to tell which color is going to be right without that little chart on a box to tell me. I'm afraid it might turn out too dark. I assume the swatches are based on hair that was white. Mine is pretty far from white. All the lighter reds seemed to be golden, which I don't want. So I hope I'm doing the right thing. Also bought developer.

I purchased 2 tubes from the same ebay seller and the 1.9% developer. I should be getting it in the mail today or tomorrow.

I was going to buy from Killer Strands, but her shipping was kind of outrageous.
