► Hair Color:
This a custom color job, created by a stylist at a salon, using a professional system not available in beauty supply stores and which requires a valid cosmetology license to purchase--no I do not know the name. It cannot be recreated precisely and the shade looks different on me every time she touches it up since she blends it up on the spot and it changes shades every time I wash my hair.
Bleach was not used. We have been lifting my hair lighter and lighter over time using developer (which is not bleach) since October of 2015. I will not post a video on how to color because I am not a licensed cosmetologist and I will not give directions on how to use chemicals that I do not have a good understanding of. If you'd like help with achieving this color, please consult a LICENSED professional who specializes in natural hair because coloring will alter your hair and can damage depending on your texture and the process.

Hey guys is day and today, I'm here with another tip video. You got ta love in the tip video, so I'll just keep bringing them because they're easy communicate down in record. So people are asking me to go ahead and do a coloring tip video, which I don't know why I haven't done this yet cuz my turn the color for years, and you guys always talk about how healthy my hair looks and a little while. So let's go ahead and get into these tips. My first tip the most important tip is go to a professional. I get so many compliments about my colors and people asking. How do I keep it healthy? The first step is going to a professional. The professional can assess if your hair is healthy enough, the color, if you decide you want to color anyways, she can let or he you can let you know what to expect what to do. They have my hands-on situation where they can look at your hair and be like yay or nay, and if you decide to proceed it can tell you what you need to do. Another good example is say, like you want to do your hair color at home, because I get people say: oh, I try to do this at home and it didn't work. Good good people have a zero knowledge of color. If you have a zero knowledge of color, you do not need to be coloring. Your hair at home, cuz, im sue somebody. I literally have had people a lot of people over the years. I'Ve been colored in box me and say: oh, I dropped this color on my hair and they didn't do anything I'm like did you list it? You know I lift wet and I'm like girl. Bye just go to the colorist, go to a professional and with that being said, do your research on a professional. When I look for the girl that I go to now and the girl I went to before that, I stopped their face for days. I was on their clients pages. I was I mean I really like thoroughly went through and was down a rabbit hole trying to see if that person color if they could achieve the color that I wanted and with their clients, hair, look like after coloring. So do your research, I found all my stylist through social media um to me. That'S the safest bet, because you can see what they're posting and go fight, they're attacking their clients. You can go look on your clients page as well, and get like an actual real-life example of. What'S going on. The other reason why you want to make sure you go to a colorist is to bounce ideas off of cuz. Every color does not look good on everybody just to be rude like if you want it and not even every color, every shade of color so say you want to do a blonde. You got to kind of figure out that good blonde to match your skin tone, because we've all seen some people who were having blond hair and it just it didn't compliment their complexion same thing with frizz. You want to find a red that matches your skin tone, whether it be a light red or a dark red there's, so many different shades of each color. You want something to sit there with a knowledge of color to make sure that you're getting a color that complements your skin tone and even like your personality. So you want to go red. You grab a box and it's super super bright, but that's just not something that she wanted. You really don't even have much control when you're doing box size so go to a salon and do your research on the stylist before she colors your hair, or he keep saying she but he's doing here too so, yeah first, it go to us online. Go to a professional, the next one are like my watch date tips cuz, my. If you guys notice my colors don't fade very fast. One thing I do is I do not let hot water touch my hair, I wash my hair on lukewarm or sometimes warm water, depending on how dirty is feeling, but basically I wash my hair on lukewarm water. When I do my deep conditioning, I go through and rinse it in lukewarm water, and I also let my deep conditioner cool completely off before I go rinse because I found in the beginning when I was coloring, especially when I had that those oranges and their reds. I had years ago, when I was my hair, wouldn't bleed a lot when I shampoo, but when I would go deep, conditioned and then go straight to the bowl. My color was just like he's going down the drain, so um, I'm sure it's a cuticle thing and my mind. I rationalized it that when I did conditioned the deep conditioner is penetrating inside the hair chance. I was opening up my cuticles, which is releasing the color. If I sit there and let it cool off, then it's closing the cool, the cool air or the coolness closes the cuticle trapping in the color, and then I just rinse it on lukewarm water. Another thing is be aware of the type of shampoos that you are using. Y'All have noticed like over the past year. I'Ve got back to shampooing more and it's because of this blue hair um. When I first got it, I felt like I had the first couple months. I was like Co watching this stuff and they got dull really quick, and I was talking to my stylist and she just said you know start shampooing, but using moisturizing shampoo go so we can remove, really removed, remove that build-up and you can also get a nice Gentle cleanse so I'm using moisturizing shampoos. You do want to clarify from time to time but be in color when you clarify you're gon na strip out your color so so get around. Now I try to clarify like right before I get my colors retouched and I get my colors retouched just as needed. Like I said in the first month or the first two months, I had that blue. I went back and got every color because I didn't. I didn't do well with it since then I've only gone back once and it's been. I got my hair colored in November. I think I went back in my chang where I got it touched up. It'S now. What'S what's this month July August, it's August and I haven't gotten my color touched up and it's still it's the rich yeah make sure you are shampooing with a moisturizing shampoo and that you are not putting hot water on your hair, which is going to make the Color bleed, oh, and also we need deep conditioned, let that do conditioned or cool off before you rinse it because, like I said be personally, whenever I do conditioned that's where all my colors are trends, and not so much when I shampoo. My next step is to moisturize moisture is very, very important. With color color is drying. My hair is very prone to dryness. So that being said, I can it'll take me forever to explain how to properly moisturize your hair. I do have a video. I will link that here go ahead and click, but basically with how and moisturizing properly, you got to know your porosity and you have to know how to layer your products according to your porosity. So you need to know if you're low porosity, which means that your cuticles are tightly shut, is hard for water to penetrate and moisture to penetrate. But when it does it locks in which is me, then there's high porosity, which means your hair soaks up water soaks up product really well, but it drives back out really really quick, that's high porosity. So, with high porosity, you want to focus on putting sealants on your hair to trap in that moisture, show your heads and dry out quick, whereas with low porosity you're focusing on trying to just get the moisture to absorb in the first place. The moisture is so important with coloring the next and most important thing is protein. When you color it tears up your hair, it tears up your hair. Color damages your hair, my hair is damaged, it's got a curl, but for the most part my hair is damaged because I colored it and I've been coloring my hair since 2010. I want to say so. I'Ve been coloring my hair for nine years. There are a lot of brands that put out that they have a protein treatment and they're, not protein treatment. They are protein conditioners as far as protein treatments, the main brand that has actual protein treatments. It is a PG, they have their two-step, which is the one that makes your hair harder. You put that condition aligned it's off the back up. I recommend that if you are, if you have like severely like color treated hair, when I say so, it really means like your hair. It feels really funny, so I wasn't using that up until this year, but I do use that now before I was using. What is it the two-minute keratin treatment by Apogee, and that was getting me back, so I don't really know how to tell you on how to find the difference between the two. But a lot of companies say there's a protein treatment, but it's really not it's a protein D conditioner and that's not the same as a protein treatment. I do use protein deep conditions. A lot you guys seem you mention, like my ELF, the ancient Egyptian collection by Maine choice. African pride has their um. What is it their protein leave-in conditioner incorporate protein, but know your limit if your hair starts feeling really stiff and where pull back on the protein. But incorporate as much protein as possible, but you got ta find a balance between you, protein and moisture. You also don't want to over much Drive. I keep talking about that in my videos too, because you'll get higher in fatigue, which is just bad and having under protein treated hair, because your hair gets really really weak and limp, and it can break off so definitely want to find balance between protein and moisture And make sure that you are using actual protein treatments and not just deep conditioners with protein in it? If you need it, the next tip that I have for you guys is to do not over style, manipulate or wash your hair when you have color um, and this is real contradictory to the health of your hair, because you got ta make sure your scalp is Clean you got to make sure you wash your hair, but when you have color, you want to wash it, as least as possible, so your mind those people who wash our hair everyday every other day. Two times a week, you're gon na have an issue with maintaining your color, not as far as like the health of your hair, but just as far as it fading really quick. On average, I wash my hair once a week or every other week. I don't let two weeks go without me, washing my hair, but you want to make sure that you are not over washing it and your and don't wan na over and you don't want to over manipulate it, because obviously it will have breakage in again. Colored hair is more prone to dryness, which means it's more prone to breakage I got into, but I really don't want to tell people, because I don't feel I answered a million questions. Cuz, I'm gon na just keep telling y'all to go to a professional, but on my own I have been experimenting and I found a company called overtone and as far as maintaining my color and not having to go to get my hair touched up as much. They have deep conditioners and conditioners with dye in them, so they have like blue conditioners, red conditioners, great conditioners, whatever I do use those from time to time to boost my color, I'm not gon na answer a million questions on it, you think is literally. You read the bottle, follow the directions, I'm not going to answer a million questions on it. If you have a question, please consult a professional, but that is a tip if you are coloring look into a company that has deep conditioners with color in it like we're. Talking I'll have it in the description box, but again that that's all of the same in it and my final tip, which I had to learn the hard way is be careful in the Sun, the Sun bleaches some colors. When I went to the beach one time - and I had one chair, my hair was blind and kind of almost kind of see-through ish a little bit at the end after I let the beat left the beach. So at this point I cannot talk left the beach. So at this point, when I go to the beach or I'm going on the trips and vacationing and whatnot, and I'm going to be in the water I'll go ahead and just get braids or some kind of protective style to tuck my hair away, I, since I've, Like started, doing like these, like really vibrant colors, like that last read that I have in this blue, I have not been in a pool. Do not get in the pool with this with something like a blue or purple or a green, or something because you gon na people sang the whole pool color down so um yeah protect your hair from the Sun. If you have any questions, go ahead, and let me know in the comment section if there are a whole bunch of stuff that I missed I'll, do a part two to this video. Do not ask me about refreshing and then feet conditioner with the color mini cuz. I'M just gon na say I said what I stand to keep it moving so yeah. Thank you guys. So much for watching do not forget to Like comment and subscribe before you leave bye.

That beach and the pool took all my color away. I had to redye it immediately! Red hair dye does come out the easiest so I created my own DIY overtone. I put a little bit of red semi-permanent dye in my deep conditioner and it keeps my color fresh until the roots grow out too much and I have to color it all over again. Thanks for the tip about the difference between protein treatments and protein deep conditioners. I just realized that must be it-I've been using the conditioner and it's time for a real protein treatment!
