Coloring Natural Level 2 Hair Chestnut And Copper | Dark Brown To Copper Hair | Fall Hair Color

Hello and good morning, everyone and welcome to my channel. It is your girl, cassandra olivia in today's video i have a new hair, color client. Her name is cairo shout out to you, so we did a consultation about a week and a half prior to her appointment, and then i booked her for a coloring service. So this is her first hair color that i'm doing, and i believe it was her first hair color ever but don't quote me, but anyway, let's get straight into the video. So you guys know from watching previous hair color videos i like to set up prior to my clients coming in, so that entails me having everything ready before the client comes in. If you guys want to know how to do that, please see other hair color videos. I just didn't add in this one, because this one was pretty long and i was trying to get it down, but every client always has towels two towels that are color proof, a cape as well as a backwards bib. I like to make sure that i cover my floor so that way i don't get hair color my nice light floors as well as seat covers, and then i make sure i have gloves capes bowls brushes, etc. Okay, so today's color we're going in and we're going to do, a multi-dimensional fall color, which is going to be some browns with copper. The copper is going to be the main color and the brown is going to be the low light. So i'm just going in with her base color. Now she is about a natural level, one slash two. So keep that in mind, so i am going in with a 6.8 ch with a 30 volume for her ends and her mid shaft and then for her roots. I'M going to do the same formula, except for i'm going to replace the 30 volume with the 20 volume. So you see me mixing that here and then i'm also adding all the plaques. If you want to see the exact measurements, please feel free to zoom in or look at the scale. So that way, you know exactly how much i'm using, and i typically do this throughout the whole process. So, whenever i have to remix for the ends, i'm going to do the same thing, mixing it just like how you guys saw so i'm just going in starting about an inch away from the roof, not even an inch. Maybe a quarter inch away from the roots and i'm just going to apply this mixture with the 30 volume all around and i'm just making sure i thoroughly saturate the hair. So in total this application time from start to finish, took me 28 minutes. But of course i sped that up so that way you guys aren't bored to death, but i just like to take my time and make sure that i'm taking smaller sections and making sure that everything is thoroughly saturated now with natural hair. You do want to be mindful that the hair is very curly and sometimes thick, so you want to make sure that it's a stretch, canvas and not too many um tangles in the hair, because you don't want to have hollow points where you're missing color. So i just like to pre-brush my clients, hair out. She already came brushed and stretched out, which was ideal. But if you have a client that comes in with super curly hair, you can do one or two things you can do it while it's curly, but just make sure that you add enough tension or you can blow dry the hair out. Whatever is easier. More simple for you, okay, so i can do both, but preferably i like the hair in this state. Okay. So i'm going to apply this 30 volume mixture with the 6.8 ch all over just the ends of the hair, i'm just going to do the roots last. So you just want to make sure that you do not hit the roots. Okay, whenever you're doing color, you don't do the roots first, okay, the reason being is because the scalp produces heat and you don't want to have hot roots. Okay, so i typically go down a level for the roots, so that way it can match whatever i have on the ends, which is why i'm using a 20 instead of a 30 okay. So i'm going to apply this all throughout and also, if you have not already make sure you hit that subscribe button, you follow your girl instagram. I will also be linking everything that i use down below in the description box, as well as my custom flat irons that you can still get in time before christmas, so make sure if you're going to order that you get it by like this week. Okay, because we have two day shipping available so and also make sure you follow me on a grand period. So follow me on the grandma underscore cassandra olivia, but again i'm going to put this mixture all throughout the hair. If you guys have any questions, you already know you can reach down below and just comment, and i will try to respond as to as many as possible, and i just hope you all know that i'm super super super in like work mode. It'S actually 3. 55. In the morning and i'm editing this video okay, because i know you guys have been asking for it - i've been super busy, so i'm just trying to get this done before i go to work this morning, okay, side note to any of my new colorists. I do offer hair color, one-on-one classes and another thing a lot of you guys ask in the comments where i'm located, i'm located in delaware: okay, bare delaware! To be specific! If you want to book with me, you can definitely go to my website, which is everywhere on my page. It'S in the bio it's on the banner it's in the intro like if you just go to my website and click book. It'Ll have all my book information pricing if you guys want to know how to price things out, hair color is not on there, because it's one of those things where i give pricing at the consultation. It really depends on the client, the density, the starting level. If i'm doing a color correction, how long it's going to take etc, so hair color is not a one. Size fits all price and it actually is a pet peeve of mine. When i see hair colors a hairstylist, i just charge one price for color, because you can have a client that comes in with a pixie or client that comes in with hair to her butt. And if it's the same price, you're going to end up selling yourself short or over charging, so i just like to customize my hair color pricing based off of the client, okay and the clients wants and needs. I do a very thorough consultation, so so just keep that in mind. Another thing when you're doing color you just want to make sure that you take your time. I do not like to rush when i do color. So, typically, if i'm doing hair color, i will book that client out for the day or possibly two the max three and that's, if they're all getting like a brown or a black or if it's a touch-up. But for the most part, when i do hair coloring clients, i book that client out for the day, and i also add more time so, for instance, i told this client it was going to take eight hours. It really took me four, but i like to overbook my time just in case worst case scenario. Something happens. My client is late. Um the hair doesn't take whatever the case may be. I don't like to rush when i'm doing color, so i like to make sure i have more than enough time to get it done. If it takes that time cool my client is prepared, but if not, then i mean nine times at 10. My clients get done way earlier than we expect and they're like okay cool. I had the rest of my day free, so i'd rather do that than tell them it's going to take an hour to and then we're looking at hour, three or four and they're. Looking at me like what the heck cassandra so i'll, just keep that in mind as well, so i'm gon na hop off of here and i'll be back in just a second when we're done applying this first color mixture. So now that that's all applied, i'm just going in and applying her root formula. This is the same exact color, it's 6.8 ch, but instead of a 30 volume, i'm going down to a 20 volume and i'm also sure to add olaplex in that mixture and i'm just going to apply this all over her dark roots. And then after i'm done. I am going to wrap her hair in saran, wrap and put a shower cap on it, just to make sure that we get an adequate lift, and i did let this first color sit for about 45 minutes. Okay, because she has virgin hair. She has never had color before sometimes virgin hair can be resistant and especially when it's virgin natural hair. So i like to give it a little bit more time and the shower cap helps to use the heat from her scalp, just to make sure that everything is lifting and coloring more evenly. So that's another trick that i like to add on when i'm doing color and i will hop back on once - we are done that section. So again they sat for 45 minutes with the cap on and now i'm just going in and mixing her lightener. You can pause this just to see how much powder i use. I use this works called lamy brand and then i'm just going in with the swartz cough developer. I believe this is a 20 volume and then i'm just going to apply this throughout her hair. While it is curly um. You can definitely do this in two different steps, one step whatever you are more comfortable with. Okay, now i know her hair is natural, so we have the curls and we also have the other product. But what i'm going to do is use my manic mesh sheets by framar and i'm going to use that to separate the lightener from the brown. So that way we don't have any bleeding spots and any cheetah print in her hair. We don't want to have color all over the place. So definitely, if you're not comfortable doing this shampoo, your client out blow dry them and then apply the lightener, because i do this all the time i like to just do what works for me and my clients. So i'm just going in i'm weaving out some highlights and then i'm adding some thorough saturation of this lightener. So that way i can make sure that we get a nice lip and we have those nice pops of copper that my client wants. Her her biggest concern was that she wasn't going to be able to see the color, so i'm just her watching this product process and seeing me in the mirror she kind of was weary in the beginning, because it was just taking a while, but with color you Just have to trust the process. Okay, so it's looking a little iffy here, but i'm literally just going in i'm doing some weaves and i'm just going in with my mesh sheets, and i did run out halfway through so you're going to see me switch to my cheetah foils. But again, i'm doing the same process. I'M just making sure that whatever i'm putting lightener on is protected away from the hair that i have the brown on, because we don't want her base color to have spots in it. And we don't want to mix the lightener with the color that we already have. Processing, so i'm technically killing two birds with one stone by doing this, so i'm letting the brown um saturate enough. So that way, it's lifting, but i'm also going in with this lightener so that way, it'll lift it even more and then once i was done this lightener, i did toner at the bowl with a redken. I used the shade seven. I can put it down in the description - i don't remember off the side of my head, but i used a redken toner just on the um orange parts or the lightener parts just to get that orange to pop through. I know this might seem like a lot. I'M just trying to make sure that i do a thorough explanation of what i'm doing so right here. You see me weaving i'm going to use a framer foil to separate that weave, add the lightener and i did let this lightener sit for about 20 minutes. It is a 20 volume i just wanted to make sure that we lifted her hair, low and slow. I don't like to rush the process when i'm lightening hair, especially virgin hair, because it can go left very fast. So i prefer to take the longer method, um - and i always describe this to my client as using a slow cooker versus using a microwave when you cook on a slow cooker. Everything comes out more savory, it's perfect, it's seasoned versus when you throw something in a microwave. Sometimes you pull it out and it'll be hot in the middle or cold in the middle hot on the outside, and we don't want that. We want a very, even color. So that's why i do the steps that i'm doing, and i hope this helps somebody out there and i'm just not ready for no reason. So i'm going to finish applying this all over we're almost done. I did shampoo her at the bowl. I didn't realize that my phone died. I do record all my videos on my iphone. I know that sounds crazy. A lot of people think i use fancy devices. I do not. I record everything on my iphone 10s max to be specific, and i also edit on my iphone so my phone died halfway through. I didn't realize, but i did tone her at the bowl with this copper color, and this is what went over the lightener. So now she's all rinsed out we did her olaflex treatment at the shampoo bowl, i'm going to i'm just going in with olaflex number six and i'm putting this all throughout her hair just to keep it healthy. I like to use olaflex from start to finish within this process and then i'm just gon na go ahead and blow dry. Her out, i didn't put the whole blow dryer in because this is a very long video and i didn't want to bore you guys to death, but i just want to show you guys how this color looks. We did offer a darker root. She wanted her grooves to look pretty natural, so we did color her all over, but we didn't go too far up just because when her hair grows out, she wants to be able to rock it a couple of different ways. So this is just how the color is looking so far and i am going to go in with my custom, cassandra olivia flatirons make sure you check out the discount code. It is yt cast 10.

I didn't have to trim anything because she had just had her hair trimmed about a couple weeks prior to coming to me. She did mention that her scalp does get a little dry, so we're just making sure that we are into hair care. I am applying. Some miracle drops just to help with any dryness and irritation, and then i'm gon na add in the very final clips of me. Just bumping her ends and then us recording her after we are done.
