STEP BY STEP
1 CONSULTATION
The client consultation is a key part to any colour service.Take this chance to assess the hair, discuss the plan in depth and the vision for the look, to ensure you are both on the same page.
2 SECTIONING PATTERN
It’s time to section. Split the hair into six sections, three front sections and then three back sections. Next take your first section and then section again into two, this will allow you to work on one area at a time.
3 FOIL PLACEMENT
Begin your foil placement, applying the colour and sectioning your foils as you go. Apply around five to six foils to the back left and right.
4 GLOBAL COLOUR
Once foil application is complete, apply your global colour to the rest of the hair. Use a brush to apply and freehand blend the colour.
5 DIFFUSING AND STYLING
Once washed, it’s time to dry and style. Using a heat defence spray, distribute evenly throughout the hair. Use the diffuser and dry the hair from the roots up. Focus heat at the roots to create long lasting volume. Low heat was used from ends to roots to enhance the natural curl texture.
6 CURL CUTTING
Once hair is dry, it’s time to cut.The method will depend on the cut you are creating. For this look, tidy up the ends to ensure the hair is evenly rounded.
