Starting point

We started out with
four different tones
and colors.

Quadrant 1

Start Results

We went in with some highlights. Using bleach and
20 volume developer. I used a very fine weaving
technique.

Quadrant 2

beginning. Results

She started with needing gray coverage. She had
about 25% gray so I used 1/2oz 7nn and 1/2 oz. 5n to
get a level 6 with gray coverage. I took 1/2 inch

subsections starting at her crown.

Quadrant 3

Beginning Results

We started with about a level 9 so to go darker this
color requires a filler to correct for any overly
ashy tones. So I formulated a 3/4oz 5n and 1/40z

5bc to create this neutral brown. I only used 1/4oz
to ensure this color wouldn’t go to warm.

Quadrant 4

Formula used
½ oz 6NB
½ oz 6RB
¼ oz 7GB
¼ oz 8N
A splash of 9NB

Beginning

We used Demi colors to color correct this very
brassy tone. I wanted to play with toners that I
hadn’t before and I wanted to create a beautiful red
warm tone which is why I used mainly 6RB but I
didn’t want I to get to dark or to bright red so I used
the other toners to lighten It and create some depth
to the color.

touches to complete her look.

Inspiration for final haircut

Creating an even canvas
Step 1

My first step was to do a soap cap using 20
volume. I left it on for 10 minuets to start lifting off
the previous color had had deposited. This process
was a lot easier because I used 10 volume so the
colors wouldn’t be permanent.

Step 2
In step 2 I went in and took very thin sub sections, less than 1/4 inch, slicing

and placing in foils staying a 1/2 Inch away from scalp. I used 20 volume on
the ends then once the top and bottom matched I went in and tapped the roots
with 30 making sure not to overlap. I did this starting in my darkest working to
the lightest quadrant. I processed till a pale yellow was achieved, so that my
direct dyes would be more vibrant.

Final step
My last step was to tone her to give me a somewhat
even starting point all over the head. I used 1oz 9GI,
1/2oz 9V, 1/2oz 9B and equal parts clear.

After haircut
I cut a bob with a slight stack in he back. I wanted it
to have a lot of texture and movement so I added a
lot of texturizing.

Adding in final colors
I added in the final colors in sections, keeping my
final results in my mind as I placed the color. I
added in a shadow root using 1/2oz 6RB and 1/2oz
6NB. I did have to go back and brighten a few
pieces up around the front after the first
application.
