How To Do a Full Highlight in 20 Foils or Less | Hair Color Hacks | Kenra Color

[@dakotadellafera5850]

It looks like it was previously colored with highlights. However, I would buy that she put Sun In on her hair at one point to go blonde and it didn't work, but over time the sun made it lighter. Which Sun-In is not color, so... And don't say "Sunny California" I'm in Sunny Florida and Sunny Texas. The sun does not create a line of demarcation.

[@nicholasgiaquinto3278]

I would like to see this model with straight hair so you can see the transition that's the tell if it's a good technique. Everything looks pretty good when it's curled.

[@KenraProfessional]

Thanks for the feedback, Nicholas!

[@terryf8398]

[@adelina7]

Her hair was very processed NOT VIRGIN HAIR!!!

[@ghostiiiekun6636]

Another tip is to put some lightener on the foil before puting the hair down to ensure full saturation and taking the brush side to side :)

[@KenraProfessional]

Great idea Ghostiie Kun!! Thanks for sharing!

[@silverkitty2503]

OH WOW THANKS NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT

[@faithfulgrl]

🕊The finish on her hair is exceptional. You have found another thing in life you have mastered. I'm sure there is more. I was a hair stylist years ago. I can tell by the time you spend perfecting the color, it's well thought out but, it's your talent that takes the client's hair to stunning. Thnx for teaching! 🦋

[@ioannisantiotis369]

Very nice, but it's not highlights, is balayage.

[@KenraProfessional]

Hi Ioannis! Although the end result is beautifully blended, a lightening service that only uses foils and no other freehand work is not typically considered a balayage. If Mirella were to freehand paint a few pieces outside of the foils, it could then technically be considered a foilayage. We hope this helps.

Thank you for your video. Sorry to disagree with you but as I Hairdressers we know that no one has natural hair color looking like hers. That’s a level 6-7 color with highlights! and like 6-7 inches of new growth!

[@KenraProfessional]

Thanks for sharing! During the consultation, it was understood that she had not colored it, and being in sunny California, her hair had naturally lightened over time. For all intents and purposes, the technique and application would still remain the same. Thanks for watching!

[@sunshine2502]

Not true. I just had a client hesitate actually that had never colored her hair she was 20yrs old. But she is in the sun allot. You would've thought she had colored her hair before.

As a colorist I do know that natural hair does look like this. Her hair has been lightened by exposure to the sun.

[@clairewhittlesey767]

That’s what I was thinking too! But then I remembered, wayyyy back before I ever colored my hair (like 15 years ago) I also had those natural highlights. People asked all the time where I got them done haha! Some people just look like that.

[@AdrenalineJunkie2323]

So this is really irritations. I keep going to hairdressers asking for Balayage and THIS is what they keep doing!!!!!???? The end result looks like this but the photos I show don’t match up. And I go to HIGH end salons. What am I asking for is not the end result. Although the end result looks beautiful still and fine, it isn’t technically what I wanted. When I researched balayage technique, I see woman free style and color it in a V shape and THAT end result IS what I am wanting. How do I ask for that. I feel like they just give me highlights and charge me for balayage and call it balayage. But to me, I call this highlights too. This is EXACTLY what the salon did to my hair yesterday and you’re calling it highlights which is what I feel they did. I don’t consider this a balayage. And the 3 times I’ve gotten it done this is what they do when I ask for balayage. Please help me understand. How can I get what I want?!?!

[@danawilks5243]

Wow wow wow! Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for such a detailed video! Literally looking in my book to see which clients to use this technique on😊 I do have a couple questions...Where did you get your shampoo bowl, and do you love it? Second question, in using your direct dyes, do they come in different levels, or do you also have clear to potentially lighten them if needed? Thanks again! Xxoo

[@KenraProfessional]

Hi Dana! While we can't answer the question about the bowl, we CAN let you know that our Creatives (Direct Dyes) only come in one color-- they can technically be used on any level to create a cast or stain onto the hair, but applying to pre-lightened hair will give the brightest, boldest effect. Ideally, you will want to lift the hair to a level 10 for bold looks. You can add Clear to brighten and customize the shade! We hope this helps!

[@MirellaManelli]

Hi, Mazzy! While backcombing itself isn't considered balayage, you can absolutely balayage backcombed pieces. You can also apply lightener to backcombed hair in foils to provide a blended look that resembles the blend of balayage.

[@kaliyavalentin2276]

I’m a newbie and appreciate your help, so is it correct to blow dry the hair before applying the toner? I think that’s what I heard. Thx

[@KenraProfessional]

Hi Racquel! Demi-permanent color can be applied to damp or dry hair, so it's really a matter of preference. While applying to dry hair can sometimes help the toner to deposit more fully, Kenra Color demi-permanents can absolutely be applied at the shampoo bowl after shampooing the lightener out, saving you lots of time from having to blow-dry, apply, process, and then shampoo & condition all over again. We hope this helps!

[@lydiagrosso236]

How long is the direct dye last?

[@KenraProfessional]

The Kenra Creative shades are semi-permanent colors. Intense color vibrancy can last up to 50 shampoos.

Not really a full head “highlight” more of a full head balayage

[@KenraProfessional]

Hello! Because this look was achieved using only foils, it would not be considered a balayage. "Balayage" in US salons typically refers to freehand or open air lightening without the use of papers, foils, caps, etc. However, because Mirella used a teasylight technique in the foils, it does give a more balayaged, blended effect. We hope this helps!
