A cut and some color

Yesterday I brought a model for a haircut and some color. We talked about getting her hair blonder, but without frying her tips. It was quit a challenge since she had been dying her hair for the last 7-8 years straight, getting it dark (Tone 5), to blond (tone 7-8), which made the hair already really damaged! We came up with a solution and a plan trying to make it blonder by adding some more reflexes by her root, and keeping the legnths and tips without any color. Now, this is what she looked like before; her stripes are very thick, and more "Zebra" than human hair. Also se had some outgrowth of her natural haircolor (Tone 6), which just made it look like the three-colored ice cream. exciting!

It wasn't not that long ago her hair was colored and cut, and she didn't really wanted it to be any shorter, but she got convinced and let me cut a few centimeters of, of most damaged.

I startet of with the hair cut. A simple solid form, nothing fancy, cuting it pasé by pasé. Because it was a solid form, this was the part of the total look, I concentrated the most. It had to me 100% straight cut, in the same length by the tips.

That's the troubly with this haircut, if you cut anything wrong, everyone can see it, and your costumer or model, won't leave happy. So I had to get it straight! And I did!

For coloring I used a color by Wella Called Magma 89. This color draws up cold, and very blond. I blended it with a 6% beise (1 - 1,5), and like I said; I only refreshed the stripes she alredy had, in the roots. She had to sit with that in abot 40 minutes, and then we washed it out with a moisturising shampoo. I also gave a treatment, which also was moisturising. Both products was from Ingredién.

We took a look on the hair, and she asked if we could make it a little more warmer. And of course we could! I washed her hair in pure water again - no products. And as she was dripping of most of the water, into the sink, i mixed a tone-color by NYCE number 103 and a 1,4% beise (1 - 1). I added the mix in semi wet hair, and let her sit there for 20 minutes. Then i washed it with a moisturising shampoo again, put in a little bit of condetioner.

I styled her hair by giving her a brush, with mouse and oil from Fuenté. I would have straightened it, but unfortunatly my model had to me elsewhere. So we had to "just" add some oil to the tips, just make them a little more shiny, and not so poofy.

This is he final result! Much blonder, and without outgrowth of any visible kind.

I hope you enjoyed! For more pictures take a look in my portofolio.
