Does anyone have any tips about putting a semi-perm color over a perm color :look:?

I have, in wig color terms, base 4 w/ 30 color permanent highlights (med brown w/ light auburn highlights as seen in my Fotki)

I have some gray's I want to cover and due to my two toned hair, I was thinking of using Clairol Beautiful Collection #11W - Honey Brown right after my relaxer. I used this product before and other then predicting how the color came out, my hair did fine with it.

I used Color B13W with mixed results. One time it enhanced my color :grin:, another time it darkened it :nono:. I am concerned that if I do not use a light enough color, it will make my perm color darker and I really don't want that. I do know that it will not give me lighter hair just by using a lighter color. Not going for that. Just don't want to make my highlights or my hair, darker.

PLEASE HELP!
