Because our hair has so much red pigment that changes into orange as we lift it getting that perfect shade is a chemical decision it is that process of lift and deposit it is that balance of shade depth tone. The more vibrant the colour wanted the more of the hairs natural pigment we bring out to play, we achieve this with the correct choice of peroxide the lifting agent that exposes the pigment we want to use. But even this is a balance to much lift will remove the red and orange, so depending on the vibrancy required we choose the strength of peroxide to expose the pigment we want. unless we are going tone on tone as the swatch is to the right the no lift is required just deposit.

New style new look cut colour reds and coppers
Monday, January 23rd, 2012Beauty hair salon, Blonde highlights, Brunette to Blonde, Colour correction, colour wheel laws of colour, consultation, Hair Colour, hair colour education, hair colouring lift deposit, Hair lift and deposit, Multi tonal low lights, Qualification., REDS HOT AND COLD, The colour wheelNo Comments »When we think of red hair colours tones and shades there are just so many shades to choose from. Hot reds, Warm controlled reds. Copper shades all the way through to cool blue mauve reds.
The red shades are the hardest to get to last the hardest to keep that rich true colour. why? because of the size of the colour molecule. Either we have to open the cuticle to much or the colour acts like a stain on the outer surface of the hair and it washes out. Finally the hair is over processed before we start. wrong formulation. many issues.

Tuesday, December 13th, 2011Beauty hair salon, Blonde highlights, Brunette to Blonde, Colour correction, colour wheel laws of colour, grey hair issues, Hair colour techniques, Hair lift and deposit, Natural Blonde. want it!, REDS HOT AND COLD, The colour wheel1 Comment »Finally the look we set out to create low maintenance colour that could be achieved with highlights and low lights without going to blonde or using to much bleach decolouriser. As you have read to start with we had to use a bleach to lift out colour and give an even light tone as per shots above.
Now we are able to use level 9 tones to create a honey gold and also copper warm tones as a low light. Using 20 vol peroxide and colour balancing utilising the hair’s natural pigment.
We are now only having to colour every 8 to 10 weeks instead of every 4 to 5, better condition of the hair softer look gained client through recommendation. It’s a win win the client is in less but her friends are keeping me just as busy and guess what ? they also have friends.
