You should consider letting your hairstylist do your highlights. If you attempt to do it yourself, it could be disastrous and it will be expensive to fix. Yes, there are different strength volume peroxide developers, which are 10, 20, 30 and 40. Most permanent color uses 10 to 30 peroxide developer and ammonia. If you are referring about dark ash blonde and light ash blonde permanent hair color, I would recommend using a 20 volume peroxide developer with each tube color.
