Hello, thanks for the video, very helpful and very well explained! I have a question: can u mix 0.88 with say 10.16 + 1,9% developer as toner against yellow reddish in a bleached blond hair?
@alexcara4 жыл бұрын
Hi Anya, Of course you can mix 0/88 with 10.16 to make the shade cooler, but be very careful how much 0/88 you add, because 0/88 is a very intense blue. First try adding 1 cm (or 1 gram) of 0/88 to 1 tub( 60 gram) of 10.16. And try it on a small section of hair to see if the proportion is good or if you need to add more 0/88 or more 10.16

Good video. If you make another one, please change the cursor and slow the speed of it in your PC settings, so it’s easier to see and doesn’t dart about the screen in that distracting manner. Nice close ups of the shades but, some are missing. It looks like the colours have been updated i.e. there are more choices now. It would be good to see some examples of models with different colour hair and pick a colour they want to change to, as ways to demo’ the theories you discussed.

@alexcara3 жыл бұрын
Hi Sonia, it's depending of how long roots do you have. Your formula can work and lift your hair a little bit more if your roots are not longer then 1-1,5 cm. If the roots are longer than 1,5 cm than it is better to lift them and clean the yellow with bleaching powder using low percentage of peroxide ( for ex mix 1 part of bleaching powder + 3 parts of peroxide 1.9%) and then apply a demi-permanent or permanent hair color to tone the hair (also using low percentage of peroxide). Some tips: Dye your roots every 4-5 weeks. The coolest color is 12\81 and is recommended for darker base like level 5-6. You can also mix 12\81 with 12\1 or 12.61. It is important also to follow the mixing ratio 1 part of color (only for special blond)+ 2 parts of peroxide. And development time is 50 min. Also put enough color. parts 12% of peroxide (development time 50 min)
@alexcara3 жыл бұрын
Bleaching powder with 1.9% you can use now when your hair is already dyed in a blond, just to lift it little more and clean the yellow pigment. When you will have again natural roots longer then 1,5 cm, then the formula is : Light base from level 7 1 part of bleaching powder + 2 parts of peroxide 3-4%. Darker base - 1 part of bleaching powder + 2 parts of peroxide 6% ( for very dark base 9%)

Hi Terri, yes you can use it on bleached hair, but the best thing for hair quality is to use a semi-permanent color in this case. If you still want to use Koleston, use the lowest percentage of oxidant. For example, if you have 6% oxidant, mix it with water 50/50 to make it 3%.

@@amaranto6568 A cool color will looks all time darker than a warm color of the same level of lightening. So I recommend instead of level 4 to use level 5 because it will look darker. In your case you will need to make a deep colour-cleansing to remove your current color and light the hair to level 5-6 and after that you can apply the dream shade. Some recommendations of cool shadows (level 5) from Koleston Perfekt : 5/0 + 0.28 (green mix) or 5.1 + 0.28 You can experiment with green mix, for exempel start to add 3- 4 grams of 0.28 in 1 tub of 5/0 or 5.1 , try it on a small part of hair and more 0.28 as needed.
