Before After
For my Gray coverage I used a 6NN cover
fusion by Redken. She was a level 5 natural
with 75% or a little more of Gray, for that
reason I went for a shade darker as instructed
for gray coverage.
Before After
When applied the demi permanent I used
10 volume developer with a 5N Redken.
Before After
For the highlights I used 2 oz. of bleach with 2 oz.
of 20 volume developer, then I applied 1 oz. of
toned just to get the yellow. I used a 7V as my
toner.
Before After
On my filler I used 1 oz. of 5N and accidently added one
whole Oz. of Red instead of being ¼th. When I
measured I measured wrong and for that reason my
filler was redder than a natural brown. The tube that I
used was actually a 2.1 oz. tube not a 1 oz. tube.
My color inspiration is mermaid themed. I love how the
colors blend and work together. They would be cool tones
and decided to use blue, purple and pink as my main colors.
In the process of when I applied them some more colors
interacted together where they became like a turquoise and
emerald green.
My haircut inspiration was a
layered haircut. I cut her hair
in a 90 degree and thought it
would be a good haircut since
I would be using several
colors and it would help the
bottom colors show and be as
visible as the top.
Color Correction was made by a bleach
soap cap all over the hair and then covered
for the heat would be contained and would

When I applied all the colors to my manikin I
first parted her into 3-4 horizontal partings
wrapping around the head. Then started off with
the dark blue and turquoise on top which was my
main color I used. After that I started with
purple and worked my way down with pink. On
every section other than the blue I would get an
inch section or more and add a different color so
it can have a different rainbow contrast once hair
is curled or moving.
My final look is a mermaid
queen inspired look. This is
the final results after
staining and painting on her
face.
