What about Cyan Yellow and Magenta primaries, like on a printer

Can you dye brown hair a darker colour without needing to bleach it before?

I am so confused about Kenra. Why are there no Kenra Schools in this country? I absolutely love Kenra and the information given by many of their professional associates. I've been an educator for a couple of brands not to mention, and I can tell you now that Kenra would be outstanding if they had Schools around the nation. I certainly would love to teach for Kenra in the educational school sector. A new generation of professionals to be would profoundly love Kenra. Just think about it!!!!

We are so excited to hear you found this video helpful! 💕

Ahhh that makes us so happy! Thank you!

It is possible to get your hair blonde again, but we highly recommend that to go to your local hairstylist who can do a full assessment & provide the service ☺️

Kenra Professional but we broke :(

A low concentration of bleach (mixed with developer) will lift the purple out, but I would recommend using a dye remover kit (you can buy at Sallys) From there, if you want it lighter, you might need to bleach again which can be extremely damaging, however, which is why going to a salon is highly recommended. After bleaching use a toner for your desired color (if your hair color looks yellow, use one w/ more ash, such as Wella T18, and follow up with purple conditioner). Remember, if you bleach your hair, do the roots last as the heat from your scalp will mean it'll bleach faster than the rest of your hair. And, process it longer than you think. So, once your hair looks as light as you want, process for another 5-10 mins. Once it's washed and dried it won't look as light. I recommend using a powder bleach that has purple in it to cancel yellow (there are also purple additives you can add). One example is Loreal Beach Baby Lights. Mix the bleach with a developer that has Argan oil or other conditioning agents so it's not as damaging Do a strand test first for all of it. That way you can see what looks right, and to ensure your hair won't fall out or break. It's always better to put in the time and make sure it's ok, than destroying your hair and trying to fix it later (which at a salon costs way more) If you bleach it you dont need traditional hair dye, just a toner. You might even need to use a toner twice. The toner goes on wet (towel-dried) hair, not dry I hope this can help you. My profile pic is way old, but I currently have platinum hair, and have made quite a few....ahem...."learning experiences" in the past. I'm hoping I can help you prevent them. I bleached my hair 3 times to get to my level, and it doesn't look damaged at all. Use a deep conditioner after every bleach process, and don't wash your hair for as long as possible before bleaching. I know the word "bleach" can put people off, but it's not as scary as it seems. Hair can withstand a lot.... I work at an Aveda salon and we call our bleach "enlightener" just to not scare people

Hi Sinai! Thanks for your feedback! Let's break this down a bit more. When we want to tone yellow out of the hair for a neutral or beige end result, we would use a violet-based toner. Violet is comprised of red and blue. Therefore, mixing red and blue (violet) with yellow makes beige at the higher levels. Taking it a step further, we consider a beige result to be considered a neutral brown at lower levels when it comes to hair. We wouldn't expect a gray or black result at that point, so this is why we speak to it being brown. We could also speak to this at varying levels. Let's say we have orange hair at around a level 6 from pre-lightening. Orange is comprised of red and yellow. In order to neutralize, we would then need to add blue to make a brown result. Once again, the same primary pigments are all being mixed together to make a brown or neutral end result. We hope this helps!

Hi D B! Unfortunately, we do not make an 11.12 and cannot speak to using it on your hair. However, 10vol is typically for deposit. We recommend following up with the manufacturer along with a detailed description or images of the hair's starting point along with the desired outcome. Thank you!

Hi Madhu! Using the color wheel of the particular line you're working with will help you to understand what bases are in the shades and can help you to come up with the perfect custom shade depending on what you are looking to achieve! You will also need to take into consideration if you need to neutralize any underlying pigment in the lifting process to maintain the desired end result. For example, if you need to cancel out copper tones, you may want to look at incorporating a color that has blue in its base, because colors that live opposite of each other on the color wheel help to neutralize each other. We hope this helps!

Hi Yeyi! Mixing equal parts of 6G + 8G will give you a very similar result to 7G.

Glad you think so!

Yeah but normally it is said to be red blue and yellow

Cyan is a type of blue and magenta is a type of red

MyTasteInMusicIsYourFace but you can make red and blue from all of those colors.

Regarding light, the primary colors are cyan, magenta and yellow. But regarding paint and such the primary are red, blue and yellow. But I might be wrong sooo, just look it up.

Hello! To neutralize a bright pink, you may need to look for a bright pale green or green based ash color to deposit in order to cancel it out. At that point, you can then deposit the desired dark blonde tone since you are not needing to deposit more than two levels for the desired end result. We hope this helps!

@@KenraProfessional Thank you! I can not order from the Netherlands 😅

I was also wondering if they would use the true primary colors

Welcome to our channel 🎉

@@KenraProfessional hello how to get ash brown by mixing color?tnx☺☺☺

From other colors?

Exactly what I was thinking I was like wait isn’t the primary now magenta cyan and yellow?

@@sunday.vireness3421 thats the truth though as cyan,magenta, and yellow are used when printing things just like how the primary colors when it comes to light is green,blue, and red

theuglyfruit ugly fruit yes you are right but fun fact did you know you cant see magenta and your brain makes it up because there is a gap in your eyes color spectrum.

@@clementine1169 i thought everyone knew that about magenta

Same here

Thanks, Chyenne!

Hello! This would vary from person to person as well as pool to pool. Because of the chlorine mixing with minerals (like copper) found in the hair due to hard water or mineral build up, combining that with the porosity levels of the person's hair sets the stage for the possibility of a visual change in color. Kenra Clarifying Shampoo is a great tool to deeply cleanse the hair before and after pool use to help prevent that from happening. We hope this helps!

That's what some are saying! Haha- Thank you for the watch!

@@KenraProfessional my apologies I'm thinking of painting and baking, since both of those primary colors consistent of pink, cyan and yellow
