PRO COLORIST REACTS TO BRAD MONDO TRYING HAIR TUTORIALS

[@CaitlinFord]

It was so awesome to see Brad try out a couple of my tutorials on his channel! I often get comments comparing myself with Brad and Guy Tang. It’s interesting because I don’t think that happens as much with other beauty KZbinrs such as makeup artists. I think this is because the pool of hair artists on KZbin is a lot smaller, and pro hair artists who show creative color are even fewer! One thing that’s important to keep in mind is that all hairstylists specialize In differing degrees in different areas of the art of hair. Some specialize in curly hair, some specialize in barbering, some specialize in special occasion styles, or cutting, or natural color, etc etc. The cool thing about the world of hair is that it offers so many little subcategories to satisfy a number of different passions, which is what makes it a great career path for creative/artistic individuals! That being said it’s hard to compare one stylist to another because one may have dedicated themselves more to one particular avenue of the hair industry whereas another may commit to something else! I know it’s tempting to make comparisons but I always encourage people to observe the merits of the efforts put forth by the person trying a new technique rather than comparing their work to existing work. Sorry for the long winded comment, when I first shared that Brad tried the inverted color challenge there were a lot of comments comparing the finished products and I just want to gently remind everyone that that is not the point of artistic efforts because two different artists will always produce different products! I love you guys and I know where you are all coming from but one of my main goals with my channel is to have hair be looked at as a valid form of art and I want to try my best to use my platform to respect other artists in every part of their journey! I hope you guys enjoyed the video ♥️

[@Rin_Morris]

Watching this and reading your comment honestly made me want to try this technique on my own hair. I think it would be interesting to see how it works on my short hair, but I’m not sure if I could do that on my own head. If you have any tips for dying your own hair, that would be amazing.

[@donnalynn2]

Christine is taking a break from KZbin for awhile so don't think that will happen. If it does, don't expect to hear a y thing for awhile. Sounds like she's really just burnt out and needs time away.

[@chubby-unicorn4447]

Caitlin Ford who won the wigg????? Ahhhhhh I hope it was me......

[@ktea8282]

Wow... speechless, you’re one of the kindest, truest, persons on youtube, and even in society in general. For you to say don’t compare, is making the art industry and even the workforce thrive, and also gives a good example on how to treat others in your day to day life. Keep being you Mrs. Ford!

[@rosemarywashburn7833]

Thank you for being you. You are so kind, honest, and genuine. You find a way to always lift up someone instead of finding fault. Again, just so nice and refreshing, (I want myself dead for that). You are very kind to folks.🌈🌈✌

[@allisonl3735]

So since you said you zone out and feel like Bob Ross, what about a Bob Ross painting on a wig? That should be a thing.

I love your channel, my mother was a hair dresser and an amazing colorist for most of my childhood. She didn't do a lot of wild color but was amazing at fixing peoples home hair color or bleach disasters, she could bring peoples hair back from anything! also did a lot of blue hair..... not even sure if that's a thing anymore. she also taught and i spent many of hours in the chair after she let my hair grow out so she could show 2 or 3 different length boy hair styles. Watching videos about hair takes me to a fond place in my childhood. Thank you for all of your hard work.

[@amandarhoads4640]

What a fun video! And really, love how both of you were so genuinely kind and supportive and encouraging towards each other as fellow human beings and as artists! It'd be a massive understatement to say that the world could undoubtedly be a better place if more people treated themselves and others with the kind of mutual uplifting love and respect than you guys demonstrate in this video!!! I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am to meet with you again in a few weeks and have you work your creativity magic and skills on my hair and turn it into a (much needed!) seriously badass, colorful masterpiece that I'll get to show off to the world! I'm just *SOOOOOO* excited!!! All sorts of love and respect for you, and everything you do and work so hard to create and perfect! -Amanda

[@TheSwauzz]

You are so so lucky! I would kill to be close enough to her to have her do my hair. I've always imagined a smoldering orange/red cut long shag style and no one can bring my vision to life even remotely. ): I also would just love to see a professional colorist and tell them to have fun, go wild, I don't care, it's just hair!

Hey Caitlin!! I’m a hairdresser and I’m absolutely loving all these videos and tutorials you’re bringing out. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial showing the different effects of over directing hair to get different patterns in the hair. I love my vivid work and do a lot of melts but I want to try these techniques and my brain cant imagine how they colour will look depending on placement. Happy new year!! Cant wait to see more vids this year!

[@beanieleung9623]

@@judgejudy5103 see the thing is, i dont think brad is as talented as he makes himself out to be. He became famous by reacting to hair videos, especially bleaching videos, and he always tore them apart. But when it comes down to brad actually colouring hair he's not that great. He even ruined Snitchery's hair by over processing it. The one thing I'll give him is that i think he does a nice job styling hair, but that's it.

[@the_katerina]

@@beanieleung9623 I don't particularly fangirl over Brad, but have you watched his makeover series? Because he does an amazing job on these girls with messed up hair. Sure, what happened with Snitchery was bad, but it was a mistake, doesn't mean he's not talented..

[@RenMerritt]

@NAD SNATCHER I've seen the trouble and I haven't heard his side yet so I don't want to form an opinion because it could be the company also... Companys sometimes use people like him and he is probably legally made to hush hush about it till the whole situation is completely delt with. And all hairdressers including myself have made mistakes . His just happen to be filmed.

so thankful brad brought me to your channel! You are a wonderful and talented creator! Cannot wait to watch more of your content and learn from you!

[@handylady8015]

Before I found your channel. I though having Brad do my hair would be fantastic. I love Brad. Now I’m think I would love to have you do my hair. BTW, I’m 60 with short grey hair. Probably not your usual client. I need rainbow hair.

[@GrayscaleRainbows]

One reason wigs could be holding onto color better/longer than hair growing out of your hair could do with the oils our scalps produce? Like having the natural oils going through your hair all the time is working to break down the color quicker than on a wig that doesn't have to deal with the oils at all? I'm just taking a guess here, but assuming the wigs are also human hair, your scalp oil would be the only main difference I could see effecting it beyond possible treatments on the wigs itself

[@milaayuhara2538]

Sorry but so not your fault he 'failed'. As a person that it's not a hairdresser, I think it's not even a thing about understand hair as it is about having an understanding of spatial imagination. (Apart from that I actually don't understand people hyping him as he so often doesn't seem have a clue what he is talking about while pretending to do so, but that is just my personal estimation.)

[@dlachance83]

Yup yup

[@mrfudge5869]

He isn't even a hairdresser. He did a girls hair, and he fucked it up drastically. He removed all and any footage and photos of the collab, because it made him look bad. You can find it on KZbin though.

[@BethGreenwood]

mr fudge omg what? Whose hair did he mess up? Can’t believe I missed this

[@DollFlesh]

Hard agree.

[@diegoiunou]

I agree that every artist that works on 3d objects needs some sort of spatial awareness, in order to understand shape and placement... And he f_cked up when he layed the wig flat, distorting the shape even more... BTW he looks like a booger when he puts on the wig, which shows he doesn't even know how to appropiate and carry an edgy look

[@elyssamaddox]

Ahhhh so excited about the xmondo review! I love your channel so much, keep do you babe!

[@mydogeatspuke]

As a hair stylist himself, who also works with colour, surely he would understand placement already? So even if you filmed it upside down or back to front or from behind a wall, he should be able to conceptualise the placement without it being shown to him. Seems weird to me that he couldn't figure it out for himself.

[@maggieperez1179]

Well hair colorists can also specialize in certain areas/tecniques like maybe blondes/platinums, balayage, color melts, etc. So that's probably why he stuggled a bit with it. That happens with a lot of hairstylists. I've seen hairstylists be super good at certain hair colors but can't do an even platinum.

[@mydogeatspuke]

@@maggieperez1179 I get struggling with the specifics of the style, but I was talking about the placement in relation to the hairline, which surely is the same regardless of the specific colouring technique? I think it was something like it not being close enough to the parting or something, honestly it's been over a week I don't have that great memory. But it was the kind of thing that you would expect to be universal for colouring, the first placement so that it falls properly when the hair is styled. Like once you move down the shaft and start alternating the colours some confusion could be forgiven, but the initial placement is something that would be the same whether you were doing something with lots of colour or just a block, even highlights, because it's about the shape of the head and how the hair falls, not the colouring technique itself?

[@natasagrzanic7896]

Honestly I don't believe he's a real hairdressser. I don't even believe he had a licence in the beginning. He's all around shady and often gets things wrong in the weirdest of places. Most probably got famous because of his looks and overdramatic reactions, he just has a lovable personality, is all. You're right to question him, people follow him blindly when he obviously has limited knowledge in the area he's supposed to excel at.

[@mydogeatspuke]

@@natasagrzanic7896 good yo know I'm not the only one suspicious of people when things don't add up haha. I feel like it's become a big problem to question things in recent times, as though being doubtful is some kind of personal attack and makes you a bad person. It's so strange to think that "social justice" or whatever is beating critical thinking out of people.

[@maggieperez1179]

@@natasagrzanic7896 not gonna lie, I also don't think he's a real hairdresser. My point was only that sometimes we struggle with certain techniques. And you guys are right, sometimes he'll mess up even on the most basic things. That I saw when I started beautyschool

[@missyc13]

Scientist here (well I used to be, recently switched fields but still know chemistry) Oxidation literally just means, it reacts with oxygen and this almost always means colors will change and the product will dry out. Some ingredients lose their colour because of a certain oxygen level, but you'll probably never find those in a haircolor since those are usually toxic
