Thank you Thank you!!!! For the honest talk about bleach. There is a certain RU-vidr (will not mention the name but will just say she cals herself 'the blond girl') who actually calls bleach 'color' because even though she uses bleach she hates the word because it has (according to her) a negative connotation. Bleach is the clear OPPOSITE to color! And there is nothing wrong with that!
Thanks. Ever so helpful and sensible!! My removal journey was inadvertent and a big shocker. I went for hair Botox, which stripped my auburn and I ended up full-on canary 🐤 (I’m not exaggerating)!! Isolated myself at home for three days until I could dye it again. 😂. Lots of love to you. So grateful for you! 💖
Oh my gosh! THIS video was right on time for me! I was occupying my time while I waited for the Color Oops to process on my hair. I just got out of the shower after rinsing my hair for about 25 minutes. It did it's job. My hair was at a level 8 when I took it down to a level 5. I did fill my hair before I went dark though 😊 and I got a nice result, but just a touch too dark for me. So, here I am deep conditioning my hair while commenting on your VERY helpful video. I'll have to see what level I ended up with after I rinse the hair mask off and dry my hair. I'm not sure what color I should try next. My skin is fair, but leans olive with a with a warmer undertone. According to my color analysis, I'm a True Spring, but none of the hair colors my color analyst suggested seem to jive with my skin. 😢 Stawberry blonde and golden blondes are no bueno with my skin. I think that I was on to something with a darker color, I just haven't found a level and tone that suit me. Thanks for the video!!❤
I love your channel! I am a chemist, but hair chemistry is a whole new world for me, it is bewildering and strange, but I am exploring all your videos. How do I see the whole library, (if possible?) I am sure seeing all your videos us better than me taking the usual Color 101. Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
Awww, that’s great, thanks for watching! Chuffed to have a chemist watching my content. Just head to my channel - click where ever you see “The World of Craig”. 👨🏻🙏🏻✨
@theworldofcraig you really are so helpful and informative 👏 I'd be lost without your videos. Remember I said I'm currently doing a level 2 hairdressing course, well, I was told not to watch youtube videos about hair 😏😏😏
@theworldofcraig well, I'm able to shift out what's nonsense and what isn't, and I shared a few things I thought others would find helpful and interesting and I pretty much got told off for it 😏 Story of my life, I've always been the black sheep and don't fit in, I think they don't like me because I like alternative things, and the rock and metal atheistic and I'm not a typical barbie doll doing a hair course 😏 That's how I feel anyway. They also chit chat way too much on the course and I'm like, excuse me, I'm paying you alot of money to learn and get my level 2 thanks, do you think we could do abit 😏 Anyway, sorry for the rant here. Just wanted to say that I love your videos, so helpful and informative 👍 👌
Thank you Craig 👍🏻💐🌻 very interesting and well explained! In case of any misfortunate color, I know where to look. I always save your video so I have them at hand before I do anything I might regret later 🤭.
Thank you Craig that is awesome I will remember the main ingredient And then to the second process I have about a level 5-6 natural with highlights and grey in front little grey *no color just toner demi but its fading is not very quick I've had it for about a year maybe the hairdresser done permanent which I would never ever agree to I want to go to a level 7ish hmmmm idk I would love love for you to do my color but thank you for the super important information You are truly a gem 💎
I was waiting for this video. Now I am sufficiently apprehensive about removing my Demi Permanent hair color at home. It’s fading quickly to an orange shade. Probably because I’m gray in my crown.
So first, thank you - your videos are always very helpful and easy to understand. I like coming back to them ❤ And then I have a question, and I know "remote diagnosis" it is not so easy but the topic of color lifting/removal just made me wonder. So my natural color is a dark brown, maybe a 3 or 4, it has been bleached and colored a lot, the last color was a demi-permanent red - now a brass brown mix with my roots growing in dark 1-2 cm. (Shoulder length hair). So to be lower maintenance I would prefer to go with my natural dark color, but have a blonde money piece. So, would you recommend putting dark color over everything and then remove color/lift the parts I want blonde or should I leave the parts I want blonde out and color the rest of the hair separate? Does any of this make sense? 🙈
You’re most welcome, thanks for watching, so glad they are helpful. I would perhaps take out the pieces you want to lighten, get them well out of the way - then do the dark - then blonde afterwards.
Thank you, Craig! I am a newbie to home hair color, transitioning from using ash blonde box dye a few times, to one "whoopsie" which caused it to go medium brown with a touch of red, close to my childhood color. My true color now is totally grey hair. My question is, if I want to go back to medium natural ash blonde, how am I going to do application of the color displacer "precisely" to the very back of my head??😭😭😭😭😭😭 And quickly? (Or was that step 2....) Using 3 mirrors, I can see, but moving your hands in 3D is daunting. Any ideas on how best to do this? Or am I stuck? 😢
You’re most welcome. That’s a really tricky one to answer remotely I’m afraid. Even though I’ve put this together and am an advocate for home colour, removing it yourself is A LOT. The sodium oxy remover would be simple to apply (step one) but it will make your hair very, very warm….so then it would be a battle to lift that out.
Great tips thank you so much, I never knew that about Bleach being weakened by the peroxide, could be a reason why it sometimes doesn't lift enough when highlighting. Could you just skip the bleach part if your say, going from black to light brown, or dark blonde? Thanks for your time 😁
You’re most welcome, glad they were helpful. I do have a dedicated video about ratios and the effect they have on lift here on my channel. You could - but colour remover always lifts very, very warm, it’s to do with the way the molecules are deposited in the hair…if you don’t bleach (generally) they would have to want to be copper.
