Burgundy To Honey Blonde Corrective Color

Hi everyone welcome back to my channel in today's video I'll, be doing a massive color correction from Burgundy to honey, blonde here's a picture of the color that we're removing. I did this color on my client a couple months back and now she's ready to go blonde for the summer, so you guys will be seeing two sessions, also known as two appointments in this video. This was not all done in the same appointment. The reasoning for that is because red is such a dominant color in the hair and in order to take my client from one extreme to another without breakage, we need multiple appointments, so the first step is going to be to try to remove as much of the Red as possible, I'm doing this with a matrix so coat color eraser. This is not bleach, but it's a color extractor. So you want to do that when you do vibrant colors, like reds or any type of corrective color. Really you don't want to jump to bleach right away because you're, most likely gon na be bleaching or lightening the hair later on. So the solution is just mix with a little bit of water and a lot of them is manual work. So you'll see that I'm kind of rubbing my hands between the hair, because when I do that it actually lifts the color off, which is pretty cool sidenote. This video is a little bit more sped up than my other videos. That'S because I tried to fit two appointments into a 20-minute time frame, so please bear with me, so you may notice that I didn't put the remover on the roots and that's because that's our Neutral, I'm only trying to strip the red out. If you look closely, you can kind of see that it's starting to take on a caramel tone, so the remover is working. So I'm just research rating a little bit, because all the manipulation has caused the product to dry out the movement. So after that, I'm just gon na put a plastic cap on her head just to see if I can get a little bit more lift by using the natural heat from her scalp. I let that solution set on their hair for another thirty minutes, and then I shampooed it and blow-dried it, and this is what we got. It actually stripped out a pretty decent amount of that burgundy, except you still can see a little bit of that towards the root in that mid shaft area. So this time I'm Reese a cheating, but only on the burgundy section, not on the ends, but because they already got light enough. So I'm using that same manipulation technique to see if I can get any more of that burgundy to budge. So after two color removers. This is what we got and I would say it looks pretty good. There is still a little bit of burgundy in there, but that can be corrected with permanent color. So that's where I'm going with this next. So I can't remember what I use for this, because the session was probably about two months ago, but if I were to take a wild guess, I probably use something green. So if you go back to the color wheel, green cancels out bread. So I probably did a combination of Lori Allen, oa5 and gr and maybe half 6n, pretty sure, that's what I would have used in the situation, so I'm just doing the basic root touch-up and I'm taking a brush to kind of glide down the rest. Also, I probably did this: what's handball yeah, I didn't use twenty only because I don't need lift. I need to pause it and I'm just trying to cover up that mid red shaft. If I had too much lift I'm not exposed to much of that red pigment and then we would have a bright fiery mid-shaft and that wouldn't look great. So after the group color I'm just going back to the basics and I'm just doing a basic highlight low-light and you guys have probably seen me do this technique in other videos. But I basically take a chunky, weave I'll split the top section up and then maybe put a low-light at the bottom, put that in a foil and then on the top part. I will probably put a highlight in the foil. So what this technique allows me to do is add in brightness and depth. At the same time again, I don't really remember my formulas for this session, but if I had to guess for the low light, I probably did. L'Oreal DHS have seven and half eight GB with nine volume and then for the lightener. I probably did Laurie awful tinium the clay Lightner that I typically use with 20 volume. I am taking chunkier sections because my client tends to wear her hair curly most the time she has, this really pretty loose curl and if I were to make the sections too fine and too thin when her hair air dries curly, he wouldn't really see any of The color that I put in it would look like tiny little slivers of blonde, but I'm also still being careful to blend my Lightner too. Just because the sections are chunky doesn't mean it has to look chunky and choppy when it's all done. Also when it comes to highlighting with a root touch-up on at the same time, I do like to take my foil, come and kind of scrape off the excess. It'S okay to put the lightener against the color, but you do want to make sure there's as little color as possible when you apply that Lightner and the reason for that is because you don't want any lines of demarcation at the end. So this is what she's. Looking like, after all, the foils are in, I did try to put in as many foils as possible just to get her to a consistent tone. Alright - and here we are at the shampoo bowl, as you guys can see yup, she still has some of that reddish orange tone in there and we did everything we could at this point without compromising the integrity of her hair. So in situations like this, I just say if you can't beat them join up, I'm gon na tell her what the capri tone I do remember the formula I believe it was L'Oreal D, Lite, 7 CC C & 9 volume. A my reasoning for this is because, in the future we are going for a honey blonde coppers already in that family, so the next time I lighten her, obviously is gon na get even lighter and it'll set us up for success in the future. At this point, I don't want to put any more strain on her hair. We don't have to we're already close to what we needed to be. So it's ok for her to go. You know about 6 weeks with a little bit warmer of a color. Then she is aiming for. I would much rather that than to ruin the integrity of her hair. Just for a color, it's not worth it corrective color can be extremely unpredictable. It all depends on how the client's hair reacts with the removal process. This is why I can take multiple sessions to achieve your goal and these the results. It'S actually really pretty. It ended up being a very warm honey blonde, but we weren't mad at it because that's the tonal family we were going for anyway and hey. If we can get lighter next time cool. We actually got a decent amount of that readout alright time for session 2. So this is about six weeks after that last color and it actually faded out pretty nicely because I used a neutralizing formula on her roots. It eliminated a lot of that red tone that was there and now we're left with a nice brown tone. As for the ends, there's no surprise that they faded so nicely, because even when we did the color remover, we got pretty much all of the red out by the way the integrity of her hair is still good. But I do make my curly hair clients come with your hair clean in a blow-dried. It just makes it easier for me to apply the color. So that's why her hair looks like that all right. So, let's get into session two so from the root formula: I'm using L'Oreal inoa a quarter: five BGR a quarter 6m and a quarter 6n with 20 volume using 20 volume because she did have some new growth. And now I'm trying to mesh that new growth to the darker section that was there before for her low light, I'm gon na be using L'Oreal DHS, half 7 GRB, half 7 n + 9 volume. You may have noticed that I did throw some warm tones back into the formula because it's safe now, I wouldn't have done that if she still had a whole lot of red, because the honey blonde is still a warm tone, you don't want to completely drab it Out so the formula for her roots is gon na, be a really nice kind of chestnut brown same thing for the bull light, but I'm not going too crazy on the lowlights this time I did put them in last time, and this time I'm just gon na, Be putting them in the spots where it's too blonde and it doesn't have enough dimension so for the low lights, there's no technique to that, I'm just kind of eyeballing it! So I sectioned out the bottom half to give her a little bit of depth. We'Re doing a partial coil this time, because her hair is pretty much on the verge of what we need it to be. So now that we got a lot of that red stripped out, I am gon na go higher up to the scalp and just do traditional foils. So I'm taking diagonal back sections time doing slices, but I'm not dragging that Lightner all the way down, because those ends are already bite enough, since her color faded out so nicely. Is this all just touch-up work and this time I'm doing slices instead of weaves? It'S just another technique to give you a big pop of color and, like I was saying earlier, her hair is curly, so I kind of like to do bolder patterns so that she can see it when it's curly or straight. However, at the top of that section, I do like to do a weave as my final foil. It just helps with the blending you so for her hairline, I'm pretty much doing the same technique, but I did take out that very very, very first section with all the baby hairs, because you don't want to highlight those and then my slice is a little bit Thinner in the front of her face because you don't want that to be chunky, want it to look very natural. Also in time you color, textured, hair saturation is key. You would hate to do all of this work and then it turns out watching because even put enough product, so I am weaving this first section on the sides just for more blend. If she puts it in the ponytail, you don't want to see any lines or stripes all right so for a toner we're not really trying to cancel anything out anymore, we're just trying to make sure we have control, so things don't get too brassy. So my toner ended up being L'Oreal, DHS, half eight GP and half nine and V with a nine volume. So after I rinsed out that telling her, I gave her a nice deep conditioning treatment. We did the Paul Mitchell Care triplex treatment, and that is just a protein based treatment. It prevents breakage and it makes the hair really soft and shiny. So after the treatment, I just did a typical silk press. I'M straightening it Thursday she's gon na want beach waves. After this and yeah can't wait for you guys to see the results, and here are the results, it's a gorgeous, dimensional, blended hump, on. Thank you for watching this video.
