Hi All,
I qualified up to NVQ3 Hairdressing during covid, i am having some confidence issues when it comes to colour.
I am extremely nervous when doing clients hair and feeling as though I don't know what i am doing in terms of picking colours etc. I look back at the work i done when in college (colour corrections etc and think how on earth did i do that)
I haven't had any complaints as of yet but know i could do better (from what i see/read online, social media etc). I had a client in on Saturday, level 3, which wanted a full head of highlights to lighten her hair subtly. I did all over scattered highlights, then using NXT semi toned to a caramel blonde highlights with level 5 base. the client was very happy, but I wasn't if that makes sense.
I see other hairdressers being able to give out formulas off the top of their heads, is there anything anyone can recommend to be able to learn more and gain confidence. I would love to get to the point where im not anxious when asked for a colour service.
I know a lot of this was to do with the college, they carried on at home learning then passed everyone. Out of 3 classes there's a handful of us now working.
