    Best keratin/smoothing, Brazilian blow dry?

    I use Nov max. You can buy a sample on the website. I just find it smells so much but the end result is brilliant x

    Why have I received free perfume samples?

    The Salon I work in had these and they are actually fine for daytime perfumes..a few clients have ordered some and the one called ‘iris’ is popular as it does smell very similar to alien...I’ve ordered a few different ones myself .... they sent some new ones to try along with the info on which...

    Advice wanted on toning a full head bleach with 9.16 KP

    . I had a colour correction and had the same issue but this is 9.60 on as a toner. Could have been left on longer to tone a little more but started to grab on very porous parts x

    Advice wanted on toning a full head bleach with 9.16 KP

    It's a violet tone and very strong so great for yellow tones. If it's orange tones you'll need ash but in that case I may need to lift a little more if Your wanting clean blonde then use 9.60 after ... it can grab very quickly on blonde so be sure not to get it on the previous blonde that may be...

    Help, I've never pre pigged before!

    Sorry if I've misunderstood but Ive just quickly scan read your question. Can you not just put a natural on as the root smudge and then when bringing down low lights then use a different formula with added gold in x

    Colour choices

    9.60 is strong on toning and also 10.69 comes out a real clean blonde like the ends of that picture. I'm new to illumina too so I'm not sure on the darker colours for lowlights etc x

    Bleach nightmare!

    I have recently bought this bleach because of the great reviews I'd read. I did everything the same as usual but the bleach bled so bad . Good job my client was having a colour in between her foils. I'm scared to use it now. This has never been the case with my foiling before, did u find this at...

    Good colours ain't cheap, cheap colours ain't good?

    I've tried a few brands over the years. I was In a salon that used clynol which I liked ... we then moved over to L'Oréal which I wasn't a fan of (felt like grey coverage wasn't as good as clynol and wasn't a fan of the bases) Since leaving the salon and going mobile I have tried a slightly...

    Full head bleach highlights to adding lowlights

    Yes I'd do this to stop the natural going too gold and then on pre lightened ends same with a little added gold ..i would still always colour the root even if it is the same level x

    Balayage too blonde

    I agree. I think it looks nice but if she feels too blonde just just tone it down with a toner or has she specifically asked for it to be broken up with lowlights?

    Illumina silver/grey please?

    I know silver/ grey gets asked a lot on here and I have tried looking trough the threads but has anyone got a formula for this using Illumina colours.? I've seen a few suggestions mixing 7/81 and 9/60 but it coming out too lilac? Would love to see some results. Thanks x

    Hate my hair

    I cant quite tell from the picture but looks like maybe the toner has lifted your natural hair, something that's not meant to happen... it's left it looking golden at the root..... I think whoever has done your hair maybe had the best intention of toning to a cleaner blonde however they may have...

    Caramel colour help

    Maybe go a shade darker with both base and toner. Say like a base depth of 5 on roots and tone with a golden 7? Xx

    Full head bleach highlights to balayage?

    With the being so dark I think you'll be fine to not pre pig as long as you include some gold in with it so the result isn't too flat ... does she want it this dark from a base ten?

    Big curly blow dry

    I've never left the brush in and every time I have tried in the past it's done the same. Blow dry your section to get maximum volume then as your doing so once hair is wrapped around the brush blast with some heat and hold and then bring the brush out and pin Curl your sections as u go starting...

    Grey coverage & colour advice Wella

    I agree. I would do a full head of finely weaved foils of bleach but pack lots in and then tone rather than a full head tint. :)
