COMMONLY ASKED HAIR COLOR QUESTIONS!

What should I do if my hair is dyed darker than I want it?   Was your hair previously colored dark and you now want it lighter? Hands-down, how to remove dark or black hair color from hair that was previously colored is the most common question that I have been asked over the last few years! Last year I was nick-named the "Black out Specialist" because I was personally removing previously colored dark hair color- correcting some to result in gorgeous blondes! Hair color CAN be safely removed from the hair with the hair remaining ON the head, and the hair actually resulting in healthier, shinier hair! There is a correct way to remove hair color pigments! If you are in need of color removal - then this document is a must-have for you! It covers the complete guidelines and instructions on how to have your hair color pigment properly and safely removed. If you are soon to make a hair color removal appointment, then you must first read this! A must for anyone with previously colored dark hair, who wants to have their new hair color results lighter - whether a shade or two shade lighter or drastically lighter! Using a lighter hair color on previously colored dark hair will not lighten the hair. As witnessed in the picture to the left, you will see lighter roots that were caused by a Stylist placing lighter hair color onto previously colored dark hair in an attempt to achieve a lighter hair color result on top of previously colored dark hair! The result were brighter roots with no change to the previously dark colored hair! If you need hair color removed - you must read this document! Go to the HAIR COLOR REMOVAL documentation download

Why can't my Hair Stylist get the brassiness OUT of my hair?   Was your hair previously lightened to a lovely shade of orange? Did you ask for highlights that were NOT yellow or orange? And yet, that is exactly what appeared? Have you been in and out of local Salons asking for highlights that are NOT brassy and no one has yet to achieve the color you desire? There are actual technical reasons as to why this occurs. As soon as you know what they are - the sooner you can get rid of the brassiness! This is the second most commonly asked hair color question. If you are ethnic, and are interested in having highlights put into your dark hair, then this documentation is a must for you too! Too yellow? Too orange? There IS hope - as help is now available here through digital information download! Go to the GET THE BRASS TO GO AWAY! documentation download

What other option is there instead of a Base and then Highlights?   Are you tired of receiving a base color and highlights? If you want to achieve multiple hair colors in your hair, and have asked your Hair Stylist what it is going to take to achieve this... and yet, you still have the same base color application and then a foil weave, and are still not happy with your end results - then this document is what you need! Here you will learn about HOW to get beyond the typical base color and highlight hair color application technique. This is an education for you - the Client, so you know what to ask for in order to achieve a NEW hair color with more colors in it! Take charge of your hair color! Out with the old, in with the NEW!

How can I achieve the look of darker Hair Colors cascading out from under Lighter Hair Colors on top?   Want high fashion hair colors and need help explaining it? This is the next most commonly asked hair color question. Since 1994, I have been creating high contrast hair colors using an original foiling technique. However, the trend is now moving across the globe! Bolder hair colors are now more commonly accepted by the general public and workplace. However, it takes an entirely new language to explain these concepts to your Hair Stylist. Here is where you will find in ONE document how to explain the latest look in hair colors to your Hair Stylist / Colorist! You will also learn, as the Client, how high contrast, and contrast placement is done, and what you can expect to achieve as the end result. This document puts you in charge of your new original hair color look! You will be able to design it and communicate it to your Hair Stylist / Colorist with ease after reading this thorough document. Written in terms that you - the Client, can understand. You can also print it out and take it to your Hair Stylist / Colorist so that he/she can also understand what it is you are trying to achieve.

I use a FLAT IRON. Will this affect my Hair Color results?   If you flat iron your hair AND want a new hair color... then this is a MUST for you! It is now extremely common to straighten the hair using hot flat irons and this will end up affecting your hair color results! There is a special treatment that you must first do to prepare your hair for hair color if you are using a flat iron! I highly recommend that you read this document if you use a flat iron and are going to have your hair colored soon! I have included this informative document for digital download due to the varying results I have personally witnessed on Clients who use a flat iron! My advice is based on factual, corrective techniques used to prevent problems with coloring hair that has been flat ironed. Hair that has been subject to a flat iron must be properly prepared prior to hair color application! Highly recommended for both ceramic and metal flat iron users!
