Thanks for watching. I think if your hair is shedding it’s likely due to something going on inside not outside… maybe see your doctor as massage shouldn’t cause hair loss. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for watching. Every Color line has their own charts but a basic understanding in Color theory should help you understand the charts no matter what line you’re using. You can check out my video on haircolor/the Color wheel if you’d like a refresher. The best advice is probably to become very familiar with the Color wheel. The principles of the Color wheel will never change. And find out where the Color’s you’re using sit on the Color wheel…for example, in the color line I use, the N’s are warmer than the NN’s. They’re both “naturals” but are formulated a little different. Hope this helps.

I’ve been looking to see if I could find some online but I’m only finding the regular single and double prong clips…. Not the hideaway. I order mine through my professional supplier. If you ask your local rep they might be able to help you. Mine are Babyliss brand. Hope this helps.

@@AmysHairLab thank you. I sent you an email as I think I found them.

It is the exact same pattern over and over again. You can if you wish, part the hair and wrap off the part but otherwise you will just keep going. I’ll keep this mind though for another video. Thanks for watching.

I only do the videos. I teach in a cosmetology school.

Too kind

It really all depends on the hair. I find most hair does well with more acidic solutions however there are always the ones that need the extra strong alkaline solutions.

Thanks so much! Glad I was able to help.

Thank you so much! And thanks for watching.

I'll definitely add it to my list! Thanks for the suggestion.

@@AmysHairLab thank you for the reply!

You made my day ❤️ all the best on Friday!

They set under a hooded dryer for about an hour. Let them cool then take them out and comb out.

I’m not really familiar with drugstore brands… but some hair salons do take home color kits. This may be an option. If you don’t want high maintenance stick with Demi permanent that will blend your grays. If the box says 12 to 24 shampoos it’s actually permanent so be careful. Hope this helps

Good question. All underlying pigment in our hair is warm… so even though it’s slightly lifting, it’s still exposing warmth. “N’s” are neutral which means they have both warm and cool in them which is a great choice for covering gray but you might want to try adding some ash to your formula to cool it out. It could also be a water issue…. I use hard water treatment on clients who tend to fade really warm as the mineral deposit can cause excess warmth too. Hope this helps!

@AmysHairLab wow thanks so much Amy, great advice and I've spotted an NNA to try, with my fingers firmly crossed 🤣. I really appreciate your help so much 💜

I’m So glad you are enjoying the videos and thank you for subscribing. Thyroid issues are no fun and they wreak havoc on your hair. The best thing you can do is ensure you are using good products that keep your scalp healthy… there’s not much you can do about thyroid related hair loss but by keeping your scalp healthy you’ll promote a healthy environment for your hair to grow. I use rosemary and peppermint in my shampoo which have antibacterial properties which is great for the scalp. I would avoid sulfates and mineral oils as well as they’ve been known to irritate the scalp. Thanks again for watching.

Hmmmm… it’s normal for a perm to relax a bit after the first wash… sometimes making the curls a little tighter will give them some wiggle room to relax. This is especially true with” body perms”. The client doesn’t want curl but they want body… if there’s not enough shape the waves will relax almost altogether. If the curls are relaxing quickly it’s likely the size of the rod. You may want to try smaller rods or if the hair is long try a piggy back or spiral wrap. Hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching. And thanks for the question!

Hi this is a great video! I saw this question and I think from my experience the issue here isn’t the wind or rods. It sounds like the neutralisation did not occur well. You can get hair to perm without a neutraliser and you’ll get a curly result. But over a wash or so the curl will vanish. In my experience when I advise on perms I always recommend resting the hair for 30 minutes between rinsing the perm lotion off and neutralising. The hair is really alkaline after the perm lotion has been applied and is flooded with water. When the hair is just blotted it holds a lot of the rinsing water. When the neutraliser is applied it either bounces off the water logged hair or dilutes inside. Giving the hair a resting period or intense towel blotting absorbs this water and makes the neutralising more thorough. This is also why air oxidised perms are so resilient. Ultimately, the more water you can get the hair to release after you rinse the perm lotion out, the more chance the neutraliser has of reconnecting the disulphide bridges in the hair.

lol! I don’t think I’d try this on myself. Much easier on a client. I would need a few extra arms 😂

The water on the hair causes it to stick to the rollers.

A spiral or piggyback perm would work on long hair. Depending on the type of curl you’re looking for there are other options too… like wrapping on soft bender rods. I don’t have any connections in Ontario but I’m pretty sure you’ll find a stylist who is experienced in texture services. Thanks for watching.

It’s a Wahl flat top comb.

I planning to another time.

I’m so glad! Thanks so much.

Thanks

Yay! Thank you!

Yes. We charge extra for this service. It’s definitely more challenging from the side as it tends to be not quite as comfortable for the client…. Or for the stylist. However I used a side sink for years and I still did many of the same techniques but it’s just not as comfortable. I did another shampooing video and I showed techniques from the side as well. The link is on this video. Something I tried that clients liked from a side sink was a dry hot towel on their neck during the shampoo service. It relaxes the client to allow you to spend a little longer on the massage. You can even replace the hot towel when it starts to cool. It’s a nice touch. I’ve also seen stylists use a footstool for clients to put their feet up. This takes a lot of pressure off of their back and neck. Hope this helps. Thanks for your question and thanks for watching. ❤️

I was googling and I found attachments for sinks that have a head and neck support. This may be a great option. I’m not sure if they fit all sinks but it may be worth looking into.

@@AmysHairLabthank you for sharing!!! I would love to do add to my services.

Well an oval face can wear pretty much anything. If there are features you want to accentuate you can keep it tight on the sides. More hair on the sides will widen out the face…. This applies to facial hair too. Having a fringe is pretty popular right now… I did this cut on my son. If you don’t mind styling your hair, this is a great cut. If you aren’t into styling, keep it a little shorter on top. I recommend using shears on top even if you cut it short… it gives more movement and you’ll have a style instead of using clippers… it looks more buzz. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

@@AmysHairLab well, mine is like a fringe only but shorter on sides, I got #0 last time it's bit grown now and I want to have some change also I would like to try buzz someday, would that suit my face? idk

Y’all are such a joy to watch👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Wdym?

Yes! These techniques you can apply to all your fades. The principles are the same just different lengths. Thanks so much for watching. ❤️

Thank you so much!

You’re welcome.
