This Ariel mermaid from “The Little Mermaid” is one of my favorite colors to create for my client. This client enjoys the creative freedom and eccentric feeling that she got from this red hair color. It’s vibrant and stunning to create the perfect canvas for her red hair. She wanted it truly red. This color requires some very technical strategy fro removing her natural color to a lighter shade in order for the color to show up to this level of vibrancy and evenness. As part of the process, we had to fill her hair with the right base color to make it hold without damaging her hair. Lastly, we had to treat it with the final color that is a direct dye. I was so proud of this shade of red hair color. Being a colorist, I felt privileged she chose me to work with her hair.

This particular red shade does not happen with box color from scalp to ends from a grocery store. Red hair color has to be planned out from root to ends of the hair with the right color product that will give the perfect hue of red hair color and re-establish the tones that are needed to make it work for the client. Only this type of professional color can happen in a salon. FYI, you may have to spend hours in the salon to get this look. Be prepared. Come in for a consultation first, have a beauty budget in mind and go from their on what you can afford for maintenance. It’s not for the faint of heart on the wallet. We customize all of our hair color for our clients.

Our salon stylists will take into consideration color of your natural hair first, the color you want to be, the condition of your hair, your willingness to make sure you care for your hair in between with Fabuloso Color Conditioner.

BEFORE

Green Rainbow Hair

Rainbow haircolor back natural, what to do?

We have been correcting a lot of haircolor this week at Indulge Salon South George St. To say that we have been busy is an understatement. You would have thought the haircolor bus stopped out on George St and said to all of the passengers, anybody that thinks they have bad hair color – GET OFF and get it fixed. Well, probably most of the bus was left off to visit us. We are very thankful.

The challenges that my rainbow colored clients run into is that they think we can just remove those lemon lime greens, or emerald green, blues, teals, reds, and yellows with one step. Some of these rainbow colors   that don’t want to budge out of the hair easily.

We actually have to do a cleaning process to see if the hair can hold up under the scrutiny of bleach or highlighting products to remove the fabric dye out of the hair. I said it, FABRIC DYE. Most of these colors are not naturally derived and have intense dyes that only show up on pale yellow or pre-lightened to accept the dyes. Our experience is that of an onion, the more we remove those bright colors, the more surprises we see underneath that original bright rainbow color. For example, this client just did her hair by a “friend” The friend did friends work but left it really splotchy and as we started to allow the remover to lift, it went from a emerald green to a teal, to a purplish color. This part can be scary since we really don’t know what is going to emerge. That is why we are professionals and can remove color for you. We can take our clients back to a natural. In some cases, we may have to put pigment back into the hair, we may have to condition if necessary and we may have to reapply in two weeks if they color starts fading due to the client over processing their hair. Once the color is removed, we are left we a raw underlying color that has to be colored either darker or a different tone on the light side. Either way, the color pigments from the rainbow may pop back out to surprise us again during hte coloring process. We may have to fill your hair which is color pigment that we put back in the hair to fill in the gaps similar to filling pot holes in the road. Once we fill the hair, we then have to apply your desired color. You see, this takes time and is not inexpensive.

AFTER

If you want your hair to be any of the rainbow colors, we will have to have a consultation. We will look at what you have and where you want to be. We will talk about the maintenance if you want to keep the colors or eventually fade them out or have them removed altogether. To get the beautiful colors even, we have to take a systematic approach towards getting your perfect end result with the right lighteners and products that will keep your hair healthy. This is not an easy process and can be time consuming.

I know  you guys watch the do-it-yourselfers but truly we end up fixing the

ROOTS GROWN OUT

people who do that. Typically, we will see the hair break off in spots, or the color will be spotty and that is never attractive and the look is not even. The hair color has faded to quickly without the proper coaching on how to maintain the hair.  I know its fun to have all sorts of colors. Its not fun when they all run together into a blob of color. We can usually remedy that mess in about 20 minutes. After we lift off some of that uneven spotty color, we can go from there. If you need help, give us a call. We work as a team to get you where you want to go with your colors.
