I finish cosmetology school in a few months but I know nothing about any other color line. I’m attending a Aveda and Aveda products are only available to Aveda stylists. I COULD get my hair done at school... but I don’t trust anyone. Lol
Anyways, my formulation knowledge is limited to their products. So when I ventured out to color my own hair at home I was def a little lost. With the help of a friend, a stylist in another state, I decided on wella.
My grow out was pretty bad. I was looking to break the base and then do a partial highlight on myself. Maybe a few balayage pieces.
So step one:
I used 10v Perfect Toner with 7g of 7/1 and 20g of 9/16
Left it on about 50minutes
Step two would have been the freelights BUT my color def came out too red/orange. How do I proceed from here? How did this come out so warm when the colors are listed as cool in the wella chart? Where did I go wrong, and how do I fix it?
I’ve attached before and after photos. The after photo is slightly deeper red than it is in person. Poor lighting because it’s night time!
