Would love to learn more about this , I’m in Beauty school and they don’t teach this there . I understand what undertones are but I don’t understand what background color actually means . Would love a video on that and more like this ❤️
What would be the best colour to remedy warmth left by an unsuccessful hi tint used on a short pixie level 8/9, natural regrowth 5/6 roots whilst growing out colour damage. I love the greys. 😊 thanks.
I let my hair go natural gray 2 years ago. I don't want to cover up/hide the gray anymore. I have lots of dark brown in the back, level 4-5 with mostly gray in the front. What color would you suggest to give my hair some life but keep the gray? Great video!
This is amazing! Thanks so much. I’m about to do a money piece over a very grown Balyage but I have put a blue/green semi permanent on it (I know I know. Is quarantine kicking in) I want to keep my natural dark brown and cover the green, and go silver in the front (I’m starting to get grey there so why not embracing it) I really liked 9P for what I learned as my hair is very porous and has suffered from previous bleaching, what would you recommend for the grey and to get rid of the green? Thank you!
Thank you, this was very helpful. Could you make the same with maybe a level 6 or seven? I can hardly find any videos with these levels, which I can not understand, so much toning needed with all that golden, yellow undertones... Best regards from Germany ❤️
FANTASTIC Video. Very easy to follow. And yes, I too would like to request a similar video with insights into levels 6 or 7. In the Latin community, this would be very helpful, with so many brunettes with highlights.
My client that’s coming in for a root touch up, she’s still got a very platinum/silver blonde with a few faded pieces. Her roots are dark. What tone would be best to use for that? I was thinking a 9P?
Thanks for the video! It is very helpful! Still some doubts on the background color. Ahaha more you know and more you Don t know. I ve bought sterling to neutralize my orange brassy tone. may I use sterling 9b plus chestnut long and Walnut or marroccand sand plus sterling for the roots? I ve some gray. Approximately I mean... Thanks from Milan :)
Thank you , finally ive found someone who's explained the technical side and what the background colours are. I am super technical & not long been using shades as toners on balayage however i need more info on background colours and what can be mixed & cant. Also cool and warms mixing together as lots of people mix ahadws that cancel each other out ie( violet and gold) with great results!
Omggg finally someone p can't understand.. Thank u fir explaining the black to grey to blue etc omggg u have no idea how simple u made it Thank you thanks u thankkk uuuu
you are fascinating and adorable... and I am not even a hair dresser. lol I just used it at home and went down the rabbit hole on youtube. Anyway, thank u. U rock.
I wish you would have gone on for hours, because I am all ears. You explained everything so well, I actually get it now. I am not a hairstylist, but I am experimenting on my hair. I recently tried 9V/9P and wondered why it came out so ugh. It looked like I had old lady hair lol. I have 10GI, do you think if I mixed equal parts with 9P it will turn out a pretty color? Thanks for the great video!
Summertime Jay I love the P series! I think mixing that with the GI series will creat a good balance. It depends on what the contributing level is when putting the toner on on how balanced, cool, or warm the end result will be! If you felt the first combo was a little blah, it may have been too cool from the lack of background color. But the GI would help with that! Hope that helps!
@@deejayswaney798 I am looking for that bright icy white. I do not want warmth, but also def do not want that silver/grey old lady look either! My hair tends to be porous as well. What combo would you suggest to get what I am looking for? It won't let me put a pic or else I would. Just think bright icy whitish. No dark or blah.
You are the only person I have seen on any s.m. platform, that had the sense to talk about the background colors; which are the true colors you have to consider to get the perfect end result. G in a color label is for "Gold" which may as well say- red/orange background color. People ask for gold blonde thinking YELLOW blonde, like the gold we see around us which is not orange/red! Stylists get all that schooling & end up giving clients undesired warmth; red/orange hair, cause they're not breaking down the difference between gold gold & hair color "gold." After a few short weeks of washing their hair in normal unfiltered hard water, clients go from blonde to brassy. This can be avoided using neutral, beige, tan, violet bases. Not always the hard water build up's fault, sometimes its before they even leave the salon; more warm aka orange'ish red'ish blonde than they actually want. Blue background cancels orange, green backgrounds cancel red, and purple might help the in-between orange/red & yellow. Good stuff to know before you let people charge you over $100-$200 to ruin your hair.
Had my highlights done 3 weeks ago and I’m pulling very warm colors. Like, orange/red. Should I go fir the blue/violet with a brown tan background or the red/violet? Thank you 😊
I've read that using 09P alone on level 9 hair will have a green & flat result, making it necessary to add 09V to the mix. Could you clarify, Dee? Thanks~😉
09P has equal parts blue/violet undertones. Lifting to a level 9 could still have too much yellow in if and the blue takes over and turns green. I would try to lift just a level higher to get to a pale yellow then tone. 😁
It could balance it. But if you want to completely neutralize, you must use a toner one level darker than the present undertone with a blue/violet undertone.
MorenoFamily I am not 100% sure on the background color. If it had any background, it would be black to grey. But with how vibrant they are, I would think that there is no background color. I may be wrong tho! That series is great for those guests who pull really orange or in a corrective color situation. Like black box color to blonde. I would dilute the formula until you get predictable results!
I’ve been trying for the longest to create a formula that matches the natural root/low light of model Jasmine Sanders aka Golden Barbie and everything comes out too dark and cool. I feel like the N’s run so much darker than they should. And now seeing the 9n I feel like I can actually use that as a low light or root color base for what I need. Thank you for this video! wish me luck haha
