Orange hair!

[princesstinx]

Ok so a lady came in today (not my client) and she had bright carrot orange hair and she wanted it toned down so there was no warmth and kept at the same level 7/8 but the stylists refused to do it because she said she would still have warmth, but I'm sure I could of got it to a neutral colour. What would you do? We use wella but any suggestions welcome.

I would have took a test strand and did a simple cleanse and tone to see what it did :-D

And I wouldn't guarantee u cold either you never know how it might react but if it is carrot orange you will have to cleanse out tone and then drop down with an ash base again. When doing a client like this I always utilise mixtones and quasi's eg colour touch

I would tell her I COULD do it but I wouldn't just refuse! I'm not very good with mixtones I'm a bit scared of them x

Hiya geeks.

My friend is about a level 3 with colour and has put a box dye (preference dip dye kit) on the ends of her hair. Her ends have gone a copper and orange colour, she was trying to achieve a light blonde!!

Would i have to re-lighten with bleach, then apply a ash blonde to get that light blonde? i currently use matrix.

Thanks for your help

Take a test cutting first and check the condition I don't know what vol the box dyes use but the hair could end up just breaking off.

Thankyou

I'll do this first thing, as unsure of condition of her hair, she is always colouring hair, its only recently that she's bought one of those box-dyes .

As advised def strand test, if she has got it to a copper/orange she is about a 6 from the sounds of it with strong under pigments, so I would bleach bath then tone xx
