How much is enough ??

[Bluerinse]

How much colour is enough or what is the essentials when starting rent a chair in a salon? Obviously I will eventually build up a regular colour client base but my head is scrambled at the minute and no idea what I need to start

right to start up this is what i would get......

one of every base
one of every /1 (ash)
one of every /7 (brunette)
some reds, coppers and violets
a natural red head colour (7/37 in wella my personal fave)
some ashy high lifts (12/0, 12/1, 12/89)
some bleach, developers
some toner colours

some semis (i would prob just get some 5's to 8's, a few warmy ones too)


But...this is what I would use. we all have our favourites (I hate /3 gold colours personally) so its what you use. but obv things like base is essential, xxx

Are u the only hair dresser there?

Is there somebody who is already set up who you perhaps buy colours off if you perhaps don't have that one in.

But defo all bases, my clients seem to be favouring copper colours.

Hths a little

Personally I love it!! Decent size tubes, awesome coverage and great colours, color graphics has to be my fave by far, toned highlights without the extra fuss of toning!! Lol I've got biolage aswell
