Base blend

[surf girl]

I'm loving the pics I've seen of base blend on white hair! I really fancy trying it!
Have any of u done it yet? What colours did you use? How do you get a really good blend when working against white? Any tips?

So essentially it's like a natural effect using unnatural colour

I want this!! Redken have started doing education for it!

They paint on like a root tint and take small sections and use their blur brush to undefine the line.. I think it's surprising how little blending you have to do to get that look.. A lot of the colour stains when you rinse on the bleached ends!

They just use the mixtones in their permanent range to do it x

What's a blur brush? Am I being stupid 😳

They look like blusher brushes

I've never seen them before I don't think?! So could you use one whilst doing a root stretch for ombre?

 

[surf girl]

It's a lot like root stretch I think, I just love how they use bright colours for it but on the pic I saw they kept the white really white

Do u have any links to any online material about it? I've looked but can't find anything

These are fantastic! Need one of my clients to let me have a shot! Really fancy the White/pink on my own hair! X

Yes I have seen this look before, it was deep purple roots with lilac mid lebths and ends, really cool.

If I was doing this, I would apply chosen colour on roots, then when at back wash. Mix up matching tone in perfecton, cover the hair in it, then emulify for 10 seconds.

Never seen any training on this, just what I would do to create this look x

It's the root application I'm concerned about technique for, ovs I'd apply say an inch of root but then getting a good blend :S without messing up the white? It's easy when it's ombre coz it's usually dark into light or vice versa but the blending can be as messy as u need coz u can just go back over with tint/bleach as needs be, it's kinda 1 shot with this I think :/
