[@AubreyJM]

Wow. I'm not a hair dresser so I have very basic knowledge of hair. So I thought he was being sloppy at first 😲 and then realized what 'balayage' is and I love it too! 😌💃 I'm a low maintenance person and this is what I want. Now I know! Thank you 😁👍 We are all human. Love that!🌎

[@Handsoflight7766]

Îm having a difficult time îve lost a lot of clients due to Covid and some moving away back to school and new jobs elsewhere, lost many elderly as well. I love your teaching me so many things I can use daily since I haven’t had the opportunity to work with many competent hairstylists so I truly appreciate every video you put out on colouring, saving time in the salon and cuts. I really wish I could afford your Patreon and I would encourage you if I could as your help has been invaluable to this older stylist. I will register when I can.

[@TheLifeOfHair]

I am very sorry to hear that Josie I very much hope it picks up for you soon we are in very uncertain times and we can do all we can to keep ourselves ticking over and got my videos are helpful to you all the best

[@shockalockabocka]

One trick do to get a softer growout is I do back to back weaves, 4 consecutive ones on each side of the forehead like u, and 2 on each side. The first one right on the hairline I paint a 2 inch W at the top of the foil and saturate underneath that. The next foil I will paint all the way to the root. This creates a nice diffused blur at the root so I don’t have to depend on the root shadow so much.

[@kimrussell5716]

[@kimburgham3212]

Love love love your videos James. You are such an awesome teacher. I will definitely try this the next chance i get. I just spent 5 HOURS highlighting and balyaging a head of hair yesterday. I was not happy with the way it turned out... level 5 hair virgin hair , with old growth bleach/ level 10 about 5 inches from root to ends of hair. I used 30 vol and blue bleach powder. I alway s end up spending so much time doing whole heads of hair , as whichever section i start with will process before the final section has finished foiling. I had to tone, and am still super cautious using toners, so it was too brassy. Will have to re tone. Ugh. Practice practise practise. Thanks for your calm and reasoned approach to this craft.

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Wonderful Kim glad you appreciate the videos hope they help you in your hairdressing day to day

This is brilliant thank you! Just to be clear, are you not putting any formula on the ends of the hair here? Looks like you went just down the top a middle.

Thank you for your question Sophie so for this particular technique we are just painting the surface of each of the sections I am painting the ends but I’m not saturating through to the underneath of the section Hope that makes sense

[@vxtoriax]

Hi, What brand of powder and peroxid used ?

[@uhhunnie]

Where do you buy your training heads from?

[@lulushair8270]

Hi James, I've been watching your videos for a while now and have learnt alot thankyou. With the base break how long would you leave the tint on . Kind regards Lulu

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Fantastic Lulu glad you have been enjoying the videos I would say with ALLBASE breaking techniques that the best thing to do is watch them don’t leave them there only gonna take between 3 to 5 minutes maybe 10 in some cases to get the desired result Hope that helps all the best James

[@pareenmerchant]

How would you do this technique for someone who has side swept bangs.

[@TheLifeOfHair]

You would just simply move your section into a side parting work from the parting that the hair is going to be warn in this is the best way to go about this particular technique What I would say though is this week does need to be fairly long you need the hair to be at least past the tip of the nose for this technique to work well

[@MR-nh9ko]

I like all your tutorials did you used toner or a shadow root formula to blend?

[@TheLifeOfHair]

No toner or a shadow on this one 👍🏻

[@cherylinnes8038]

Hi James,do you not have to cover with plastic wrap with blue bleach ?

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Not necessarily Cheryl providing you get the mixing ratio right if you have a mixing ratio of 30 g of powder to 45 g of oxidant that will give you a nice consistency that you do not need to cover

[@pareenmerchant]

What did you do with the hair behind the front money piece? not very clear if it was included or not please advice.

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Hi parents. The hair behind the money piece has just left dark to create contrast and separation between the money peace and high up Balyage pieces as you get towards the end of the tutorial we be able to see that I simply just paint into the parting the Balyage and everything that is in the foil is left just wear it as if you paint too close Close to the money piece 😁

[@pareenmerchant]

Thank you . I watched the video again and I got it

[@karendills796]

Oh my God!! I’m falling asleep

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Oh my God that is so funny I think I missed the mark with the music on this one so many comments about it I hope you enjoyed your nap

[@veronicagl]

Wooow and thats without the toning ??? i would love to do it on myself !

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Yeah no toner, Obviously you could apply a toner if you wanted to you are you got a woman lift than I did. The trick to it is saturation getting enough product onto the hair to make sure that it lifts evenly and consistently

[@MrzBadaBing]

The Life Of Hair I thought it was important to tone to balance the ph or seal the hair and that it’s not good to just leave it raw ..as people say it lol again so confused

[@blassaucedo5303]

Are you able to re apply on this type of technique? Love the video

[@TheLifeOfHair]

Absolutely very very repeatable technique when the client comes back in in a few weeks time because of the simple nature of the technique it is unlikely that you’re going to take the same sections over and over again around the money piece it’s just like topping up a set of highlights you just repaint the root area

[@americansonic376]

would you suggest doing the base color before this or after?

[@TheLifeOfHair]

I would say if you’re going to do a base colour then I would probably definitely do it this so obviously if you do a base colour afterwards you will lose some of the Balyage technique
