tinting to help texture - 16-10-09, 07:53 AM

i have a client with an ever e3expanding mallam streak in her fringe and its becoming so wiry and out of control , ive suggested a full head colour to help soften it and make it easier to blowdry , and she is quite taken with the idea as we have done it before , but i wondered would a quasi have the same effect?

Hi, I suppose a quasi with 4% may soften it a bit more than 1.9%
but perhaps.....
as you said I also think tint would be a better option , but.... I suppose you could always pre soften it with 6% before a quasi as this may help a bit more

or would she consider a mild relaxing treatment on her mallen streak ?
a bit of Wella Strate would probably sort it out for her ,

quite interesting though
do let us know how you get on Liana ? x minky

Hi, jotommo did you mean the wella strate ?
this is fab on natural hair to straighten it ,
wella strate is fab for taming hair too as long as you watch it so she wont find it too straight all over ,
loreal extenso is very good too just to soften tame and relax it and it shouldn't make it too straight ?

unfortunately this is a client with gorgeous dark curls , its only the white pieces which go mental , the rest is gorgeous so im reluctant to try and use a straightening/smoothing product, even on the fringe . shes about a base 4 so i think ill do 4% with something like 6 /7 6/3 (havent looked yet ) so it comes up lighter on the white so its not too much of a shock .

Hi Liana , I understand what you mean about it being a shock as some people do get very used to their mallen streak x minky

try the wella colour touch plus its a quazzi and can be used with 4 or 1.9 % and is for white hair
they have 66/7 and 66/3 just tried the web page for info but the link is broken...pop into your local wholesalers for the shade guide...i would still presoften with 6% though
