    How to create this

    I'm intending to, with me doing a fine weave through her top section to break the dark I'm thinking I'm lift a fine section of fringe up then add some highlights to the underneath just to break it up. Looking at what she eventually wants to achieve I'm so confused as to what she has ended up...

    How to create this

    Also, From seeing her in person the original technique has been done purely with bleach, I'd say 3% working to 12% on the ends, her ends are shocking but she has said she knows she needs a good cut!!

    How to create this

    Hi, She loves the colours, I've been to take the test pieces and there is so much orange and yellow!! She loves that there are darker lowlights running right through to kids and ends, where as her own hair is solid "blonde" with no dark, I'm completely forgetting an ombré technique...

    Simple terms long grad layers what's the difference?

    Long and short - long graduation hair is longer in length with shorter layers falling on top, short graduation sorter in the nape at the hair line getting longer as you go up. All depends on the cutting angle, to cut in orange segments and cut at a 180 will mean the hair at the crown area...

    Help - Hair Extensions, unhappy client!

    Osmo is as far as I know a pro range however it's not aftercare for extensions. And as far as I know you need to use aftercare from the supplier of the hair or they won't do a thing about bad hair. They sell their aftercare products for a reason, sounds like this could be one of your clients...

    New client colour correction

    Would it not be a idea to take a test piece strip it and see what the results are then go from there? Advise her that based on the level of lift from the eraser the best option would be to do hl to start to break it down and build the blonde up gradually? Personally I don't like to suggest...
