How To Balayage and Highlights (Blend Natural Gray) | Natural Hair Bleach |

Mixing the new with the old, Balyage mixed with a good “old-fashioned” highlight technique.
I think this is a formidable combination of techniques, Highlights will never go out of fashion and neither will Balyage now combine the two can be extremely useful if you are wanting detail and diffusion at the roots and a very very blonde look through the ends, in this particular video we are going to use it to blend in disguise natural grey hair the route area lift the overall look of the natural colour and create brighter cleaner blonde ends using hand blend Balyage.

[@amandarobbins2530]

I agree with you r.e. different strengths of developer. Earlier on in my career I was a proponent of 'low and slow' which often meant using 10vol, 20vol max and I ended up having to do 2 or 3 sessions to get my clients the lightness they wanted and truthfully I was often leaving bleach on their hair for a very very long time and noticing breakage in my clients hair after a few appointments Now I prefer to use 30vol and start at the back and then rinse it off once I've placed all my foils and then just process the rest for maybe 30-45 minutes. I'm getting lighter results and way less damage this way.

[@christianraularroyo2497]

Hi James!!!! First of all, I LOVE, LOVE your videos and I am a big fan! You are not only and absolutely brilliant colourist but appear to be a fabulous teacher. I was wondering what your take is on the whole trend of ashy, icy and platinum blonde. I feel like this trend is getting so worn out and when so many colourists on KZbin continue to push for these tones when (as lovely as they are) they are not optimal for everyone. So many of them equate warm/golden with brassy without teaching their viewers the difference what is warm and what is brassy. Could you do a video about how to tell the difference between warm/golden and brassy and how warm tones are just as beautiful as cool tones? There are none out there, all the videos are about countering against 'unwanted warmth' which gives the message that warmth MUST be unwanted. Some people need warmth. Thanks again for all the education, you are fabulous. A big hug from Zürich!!!

Hi James, it comes out beautifully but i have a question. when u use jcq to tone her hair, how come it will blend her natural grey hair the part that left from the highlight.

[@chinnywanders]

My mom's roots are gray and after the roots her hair is dyed with box dye upto the tips and this is the only video i saw that really tackles that problem, although not 100% but it does touch that subject. I wish to see something like that on video i.e box dyed hair with gray roots and would like to change the color and do a balayage at the same time

[@azhaircountess9798]

You need to check out Jack Martin he does amaaaazing gray hair transformations

[@clerouxbotha2784]

For interest sake, why wouldn’t you do a regular balayage and h/l combination after tinting the t-section in a natural level 6/7 asg to cover/diffuse the grey?

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Thank you for your question. Yes I think that would be a perfectly valid way of going around this technique as always there are always more than one way to do a particular look this is just a variation on a common theme thank you for your enquiry all the best James

[@Handsoflight7766]

Ok I love this and have a client coming in that îd love to do this on. ...and with such long roots with grey if yoûd wanted to do the root touch up with lift of 2 levels at the same time would you do it prior to foiling or after or during?

Josie great question you can do it prior to filing if you’re not that quick at putting foils in if you’re quick at putting foils in I would do it during or after you have applied the foils

Hello james, how are you ? Hope your doing fine. I just had one question i have watched most of your videos and i have notice you highlights back to back without leaving a thin slice for depth. is it necessary to leave a slice of dark natural color hairs that adds depth to the highlights pieces or should we always foil back to back like in all videos of yours.

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Hello Shaivam, I am very well thank you I hope you are the same? So it really depends on the technique if I am completely changing the natural colour using highlights then I will leave little to no space in between the sections however if I am creating dimension as you say I will leave a gap in between I’m not a big fan of low lights so I use quite a lot of techniques that do have quite large spaces in between them if you check this video out your see what I mean kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqmWaop9fK19kKs 😁✌🏻

Do you have any techniques that might help us create a uniform color without damaging the clients hair. I find it very difficult. Thanks!

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Yes Gabi tricky situation, once you have gone down the highlighting road the only thing that you can do to go blonder is packing those highlights! leaving very small spaces in between in fact if you can allow the time and your clients will pay for it to a full set of that of that files eliminating as much of the natural hair is possible then the next time you can decide if a scalp bleach is possible or you can continue down the road of very tightly packed foils it is very time-consuming and be sure that you charging for the services do you not leave yourself doing very very expensive colour services and not changing. 😁👍🏻
