Foils-how close to the scalp?

[babychops]

It only takes me an hour to do full head foils, sometimes less, and I take my time lol x

I often feel like my clients get tired of sitting in the chair though. Ill apologize for having to be at the salon for 2 1/2 or more hours and they always say that its ok. But I'm so afraid someone will say, "I'm not going back to her, she takes too long" but I always try to do my best and be the best colorist in the town I live in.

Speed is irrelevant when quality is the result, I would much prefer to sit for 10 hours for a t bar set of foils and have the best than be there 20 minutes and come out slap dash looking.
Its something I continue to my clients too xoxo

Lol tomme ... That would be the equivalent of placing one foil, let it develop, remove, place the next foil, let it develop, remove and so on.

An hour? Takes me between 1hr 20 and 1hr 30 !!! As blue said it isn't a race!

In right there with you on timings! I cannot get my head around how I would do it any faster !

 

[Thiago]

So 80mins for foils + 50 mins waiting + 15mins to wash + 25 haircut + 30 blowdry so it take around 3-30 hours for a full head highlights that is a lot

 

[Bluerinse]

50min wait? No!

 

[Bluerinse]

If its High lift tint it's around 60 mins wait... Or even if u use 6% bleach u got leave for longer. It's around 3 hours anyway that is a lot ;(

I'd go with that as close to my timings-only I don't do the C&F stylest are 45-60 mins.

 

[Theden]

This should be included in your cut and finish style x

Tigi highlifts are 35 and you shouldnt really need to leave your prelightener on for 50 mins if you are then your lifting from a really dark base and in my opnion it would look crap x

15mins? Seriously? 10mins max!! 15 is way to long! If you paid the water rates you'd understand

 

[Theden]
