But on the right client this can look amazing. Be wary though, this can age a middle-aged client because it can make them look like they have “grey” hair. Honestly though, I don’t use this formula unless I’m absolutely sure they would be ok with seeing a little warmth in their blonde.įor a gorgeous pearl almost-white tone, I use 30ml 000 Clear + 20ml 09V + 10ml 09T + a very small capful of 09RB + 60ml Processing Solution. You can use the Shades as a shampoo, so once about half of the toner is still in the hair, lather it as a shampoo to clean the scalp, then rinse thoroughly and condition.įor golden blonde I use as a default 10ml 000 Clear + 10ml 09GB + 20ml Processing solution. Even though it will be tempting to wash it out before, just wait for the oh-shit point, then rinse it out.
That is when I rinse the color out, but not beforehand.
If you really watch it you’ll be amazed at how fast the color does this. With this particular scenario, the oh-shit point is the moment at which the hair appears to be turning an ugly purplish green color. The oh-shit point is the point at which your gut instinct is telling you that it’s too late, you’ve completely ruined this poor girl’s hair, and how the hell are you going to spin this when you have to explain why you turned her hair green, or purple, or maroon, or whatever color.
After about five minutes or so, you’ll get to what I call the “oh shit” point. (I use the ml side of the Redken Shades applicator bottle) 20ml of 000 (clear) + 10ml 09V + 10ml 09N + a small capful of 09RB + 40ml Processing Solution. Apply this at the bowl but on towel-dried hair after you shampoo: We use it on many clients who are militantly anti-brassiness yet don’t want white blonde hair either. My co-stylists call this my “magic” formula, and I am always writing it down for them to use. Every colorist has certain dependable toning formulas that he or she uses almost anytime the client says “ blonde.” Here are a few of mine.įor a perfect beige (or “wheat” if you want a prettier word) blonde, I have had lots of success using this formula.
