I have been coloring my own hair for over 25 years and this is THE most helpful video I’ve ever come across! I’ve gone from permanent to Demi and back always covering greys. I get conflicting info about developer. It’s never explained well by anyone like it’s some secret so we won’t do our own color. Uhgg. You are such a jem! Thank you.
Listen.. I stumbled across this video on accident but I have been asking stylists for the last 20+ yrs and haven't gotten this comprehensive of an explanation and I was PAYING THEM! You dear are priceless and I am sooo thankful ❤
i'm so sorry to hear that :( luckily for the future i feel like us new wave stylists are more interested in furthering both our own and our clients knowledge of hair vs old school either didn't know the answers because they never questioned the "why?" just knew that "when you do this, then this happen" or even when they did know they wanted to gatekeep the ancestors. i think youtube videos like this are a big reason why actually. it shifted the stylist culture into a more hospitable, educational, caring environment in the salons vs just trying to get people in and out so avoiding questions to maximize profit like we're taught to in school bc that's how they've always done things before us
Last year I used a 50% Deevelopee at home, 1 hour + some change , 1st time ever bleaching my hair, to remove 4 layers of recently dyed hair (blue, green, red, black, brown). Scarest thing ever! and it Worked!!!! I used foils too. Love my blonde hair. ❤ but do no know if I would have the courage to repeat that. So glad my hair is a beast.
Can you do a video on dying hair. I have greys at my crown but not the rest of my hair. I have dark brown hair just past my shoulders. Do I mix two different bowls? one 10 and one 20? and get two dye tubes. It just seems like I would be wasting one tube of dye for just a small amount of grey. Is there a better way to do this? Thank you@@brittneealexushair
This wasn't even the video I was looking for, but I HAD to give the video a like simply because you jumped straight to the point from the beginning. I love it!
Thank you so much explaining the developer number. I’m trying to get rid of red dye and go back to my blonde hair. I got 30volume and now I’m glad I did!
you just might be the best hair teacher along side Katie from Bobby Hair Studio that I’ve seen. Katie do more demonstrations on the salon, you also teach, clearly and objectively. I wish your channel had appeared to me last year when I started bleaching my hair at home. You give a lot of information and you are straight to the point. Simple without implying we are dumb. I really liked your videos. Congratulations! And thank you for your work. 👍♥️ God bless you.
Your channel is always THE BEST option w for hair related tips! From hair color to hair extensions; you break it down in a way everyone understands. I learned more about developers from you in this video than I have from other sources in the last 20 years. Thank you so much for your contribution to at home hair care! You're amazing ❤
LOVE this channel! You explain these hair topics so clearly! I learn more from you than my time in cosmetology school!! A very big thank you!!! Oh, and your ear(s) look great!!
So glad you are back with hair stuff! Even though I love all your stuff. So my question…. I am thinking about trying a 10 or 12 blonde. Should I use 30 volume with those hilift colors. A # 9 always seems to pull orange or bronze for me and I hate it. I do have a few grays. Thank you. 😊❤
Tyy, I found this video cause i was searching if low and slow would be better 😂 got my answer 5 minutes in. I have dark hair but 20 vol has me super blonde in just 15 minutes. As a non stylist that doesnt move that fast, its soo stressful. Going with 10 vol.
I normally go with 10. I can't move fast enough for a twenty and I don't want damage. I usually do 10 vol and developer twice, 2 days apart for desired blond. Works every time for me😊
This video was so informative, thank you. A hairstylist friend told me that I could water down my developer if I needed something less strong and it turns out I only need about 8% to color my curly, porous gray so I’m able to do it at home and use just enough developer to cover my roots and cause the least amount of damage possible. But it’s so helpful to have all this context and information to understand what’s going on!
I'm glad I found your channel. I've learned more from you in 7mins than any stylist ever told me on how to cover my grey coverage ugh!😝 Thanks for this video
Wow Fascinating❤ I do red once a year around Christmas , Grocery store brand, level two, so it fades nice. also I cut long bangs with your long Bang tutorial, looks great❣️ You're amazing and funny thank you so much blessings for you and yours always❤
You are adorable. Brisket. Cat whisker. I love these analogies and love that hint of an accent--so down to earth. Also, great information and great recap at the end! I'm learning so much.
I’ve let my 6-7 roots grow out for 11 mos now. I’ve got like 4” that blended pretty good for the first 3 since I had lowlights and a root melt with my platinum. But I’m over it. And I bought ion cream bleach earlier 😅
How to make developer thick and creamy ? What makes developer creme? What ingredients to add to developer liquid so I can turn it into creme without returning it
So when you say it (lifts) what is it lifting. No one ever explains what it’s lifting. The natural hair color? Not already colored hair? And does 20,30 change the color that your depositing from the tube?
Been watching you for about a year. Glad I bumped into the 2014 hair series. Learning as much as possible before school as to have a concepts of what I'm doing. I would love to see you use Ion color brilliance Brights Semi permanent.
Straight out of the gate you are absolutely gorgeous to look at! Confident, and obviously you know what you're talking about have a way of conveying information to non hair professionals without that I'm superior to you all undertone. Learned more from this video than Decades we're talking 30+years , I'm not young l9l, Of doing my own hair as well as with family and friends! Thank you so much for doing this RUclips and education is an outlet Made for You!
I learned to do steady slow w bleach,,,,,, it’s tempting to do what she says 30 or 40 vol,,, but I’d seen much better results w slow and steady application
Thank you this was much needed! I have relaxed hair and am thinking of using non bleach box dye with developer to slowly go honey blonde on my tips on virgin hair!
My hair is platinum too white (my grey) I am trying to figure out how to add pigment (tone) I like shades of blonde not all white--should I just streak in a darker color and leave in less time?? ugh
Wow that was easy to understand. Now if you can explain toner vs. deposit only vs semi-permanent vs. rinse vs gloss. I see all these terms for products to use when you don't want to change color but freshen.
I’ve never had my hair colored and going to attempt some at home highlights. I’m a dark blonde. I bought 10 volume because I don’t want to damage my hair or go too crazy. Now I’m thinking I should have gone 20
I mix 10 volume with dye. I am even keeping it on for almost an hour. On my Grey. After dying the colour catches. But after the 1st wash it Grey again.
Great video, thank you for the very detailed explanation! I bleach my buzz cut at home. Because my hair is so short I can use 30 volume. I would describe my natural color as very light brown or dark (dishwater blonde). My scalp is not sensitive so I can leave the bleach on for the full time of 55 minutes and the result is a very pale yellow (light the inside of a banana). My question is regarding toner. I can not seem to find a toner that will get me to that perfect white platinum you see with a lot of beautiful blonde buzz cuts. I have used T18 toner but it seems to wash out very quickly and I still have pale yellow. Purple shampoo's (I've tried to many to count) do absolutely nothing to get the yellow out for some reason. I follow the instructions on the toner and use with 20 volume for about 15 minutes. If I leave it on any longer then my hair turns purple, not platinum. So frustrating! I have also tried Ugly Duckling professional brand high lift color in 100V. It says it will lift 2-3 levels using 30 volume. I pretty much am getting the same result. Am I missing something I could be doing or maybe a different brand toner?
thank you so much for not giving up on hair content. greetings from Poland btw i am preparing myself to doing an air touch on myself xD all i am missing is a strong dryer with a narrrrow nozzle. i even ordered a wig in case hahaha do you have any tips?
@@brittneealexushair You are so welcome. I wish I could give more but the dollar is almost 6 to 1 in my country’s currency. So expensive! But I wanted you to know you deserved more.
Hi so i have red hair permanant box dye and i was told if i get a dark ash blonde dye and put over the red it will cancel out my red is this correct ? Or do i need to buy a colour an the developer and mix it myself ? ..love your videos x
What if I’m dying my hair darker, from a dirty blonde to dark brown, but I have a few grays (very little but still there) would I still use a 20? My hair pulls so red anytime I dye and I was thinking that with a 10 vol it wouldn’t do that. However, I don’t want my grays popping out even more than before! Help! Haha
You’ve just explained that beautifully! Question ~ I have hot roots (not sure of exact reason) I’m having a hell of a time getting them to blend with my medium cool brown hair. Are you thinking 10v developer? I’ve been trying to find the volume of my L’Oréal box ~ hard to get an accurate answer. Thank you for your knowledge and for the way you share it.
So is it better to do 20 volume more than once instead of 40 once if you need to lift many levels...how long can u leave bleach on? Does using hear with bleach cause more damage, why?
I love how you explain things! I cut my hait this morning usibg your video from tour orher channel. I'm so impressed! Thank you! When my hair gets done, ive been told they just use toner so "I dont go ginger" (Inave a lot of red tones). Its definitely only one tube they squeeze into the bowl before brushing onto the foils. Is this actually right? Indont have a harsh colour change, it just lightens my roots like Ive been out in the sun for a month.
I have a split dye half is black half is red. If I am wanting to now go all black. I have a little bit of gray at the top where the roots are. Is it OK to use the 20 or should I stick with the 10?
Thank you! This was so helpful! I had highlights down about 6 weeks ago and I’m doing a toner touch up at home with Redken EQ shades using the same ones my stylist used. I did it last night with equal parts toner to equal developer 10 for 20 minutes (no cap or heat). It looks a little better but still a little brassy for my taste. I’m going to try a 20 developer. How soon can I redo it without hurting my hair or scalp? Thanks again!
I dye my hair with the boxed stuff at Walgreens. Any tips for the best to cover gray. Have minimal success. Going to try a really blond one today. Love both channels.
A 10-volume developer doesn't effectively cover grays because gray hair is often coarser and more resistant, requiring a stronger developer (like 20-volume) to open the cuticle and deposit color deep within the hair shaft. In contrast, it works well for dyeing blonde hair, as blonde hair generally has a more open cuticle and less natural pigment, allowing the 10-volume developer to lift slightly and deposit color effectively.
Can a 10 developer be used alone to open hair shaft before using something like Arctic Fox? I don’t care to lighten the hair, just want the color to stick.
Dear Brittney-I trust you and would love to get your recommendations for budget friendly shampoo, conditioner for dry color treated hair…Also for a hair gloss to tame frizzies…Thanks a bunch if this is possible 🩵
Hi, I have a question, if a want to go darker like from dark brown to black, what developer do you recommend ? I´ve seen a lot of videos but I still dont know if 10V or 20V? Loved your video.
A toner deposits a colour on the hair. Toners are usually required after bleaching of 'lifting'. If your hair is too good or copper for your liking Ash or Beige toner neutralizes those unwanted tones. Basically any dye can be used as a toner if you are wanting to alter the current color reflect
I'm here!!! I have a question and not sure if u can answer it, I have seen a video where they use a purple shampoo to soften the look of grey. Do you know if that actually would work?
yes, just be careful not to use it too long- it will turn the hair purple. bold uniq on amazon is my favorite one, if you are looking for a cheaper alternative bondbar from Sallys purple shampoo
@@brittneealexushair thank you! I just have a few greys through out so it will be nice to try this out! Kind of tired of dying it so I would like to embrace my grey as long as I can make it a nice shade of grey!
Just from this one video, I subbed. You are amazing at explaining this. I have a question: I went to a salon and she balayaged my hair, but it did not lift to the blonde I wanted. I paid and left unsatisfied (I have been going to this lady for about 6 years, she does amazing highlights but not so good on painting the hair without foils). So here I have yellow hair (level 8), I purchased T18 and a 10-cream developer. You are the second video I watched (the first was Brad Mando). Can you tell me if I have to avoid the dark parts of my hair and only place it on the yellow? And if I get it on my roots, will it lighten? I only want to remove the yellowness. I can accomplish this with purple shampoo, but it washes out and I am looking for something more permanent. Thank you in advance!
yes, you will want to avoid the dark parts- it will lift it to an orange/brass- it will not look great. only put it on the blonde parts of the hair. If you are nervous about getting it on the darker parts, you can put conditioner on those parts to act as a barrier cream
Hi Brittnee! Not sure if I understand completely? Am I able to use a 30-volume for highlighting only, no highlighting powder required? I have fine and thin hair, so I never use much to begin with.
If I’m doing my entire head from natural to white, I use 30 volume. If it’s just my mustache, I mix equal parts 30 volume and 7 volume. I NEVER go over 30.
My 14 yr old son had his hair bleached platinum white 2 months ago and his scalp blistered after. The toner was so painful that he cried during the process and the hairdresser was absolutely heartless to his pain he was in. It was traumatic and he’s scared to do it again but really liked the white and wants to have it again but is scared to do it. His hair is longer now with the top hair at 15cms and the back 5cms and would like advise going forward as to which volume you would recommend and if we should rather do foils so as not to touch the scalp🤷🏼♀️

No, it doesnt change the die, and its lifting the hair pigments, starts with the blues, then the reds, then the yellows
Plus its also lifts the hair scales, so the pigments can penetrate. Basically opens and empties the hair to be refiled
I use 10 volume and 4N on my gray hair new growth. . I am 100% gray at my roots. The 10 volume gives me great coverage.

What an excellent video. Thanks for the education!
I’m genuinely so scared. I’m 18 and never dyed my hair before (virgin hair) but I wanna do purple and Sally’s recommend 30 but I think it’ll be tm
Why doesn’t 10 volume cover grays? (Like they’re literally white colored strands and even blonde is darker thab white.) I really wonder that
A 10-volume developer doesn't effectively cover grays because gray hair is often coarser and more resistant, requiring a stronger developer (like 20-volume) to open the cuticle and deposit color deep within the hair shaft. In contrast, it works well for dyeing blonde hair, as blonde hair generally has a more open cuticle and less natural pigment, allowing the 10-volume developer to lift slightly and deposit color effectively.
Never over 30 vol. 10 is my go to.
Hi glad i found you! I want to lighten my dark hair. Do I use a 20?
Can a 10 developer be used alone to open hair shaft before using something like Arctic Fox? I don’t care to lighten the hair, just want the color to stick.
you are awesome explaining!! Thank you!
Dear Brittney-I trust you and would love to get your recommendations for budget friendly shampoo, conditioner for dry color treated hair…Also for a hair gloss to tame frizzies…Thanks a bunch if this is possible 🩵
2:27 praising you for connecting this with cooking meat LOL that puts it very simply for me
When my roots are retouched why are they always lighter? I do have . I’m a level 4 brown
Thanks for the useful information on coloring my hair
Hi, I have a question, if a want to go darker like from dark brown to black, what developer do you recommend ? I´ve seen a lot of videos but I still dont know if 10V or 20V? Loved your video.
20vol to lift more than 2 shades😊but low and slow is kinder on the hair
Great explanation. Thank you
For how long should I keep 20 volume for bleaching and then how long to keep 20 volume for red highlighted streaks
so glad i found ur channel
Could you explain what a toner us ,whats it for,and everything else that a person would have to know.
A toner deposits a colour on the hair. Toners are usually required after bleaching of 'lifting'. If your hair is too good or copper for your liking Ash or Beige toner neutralizes those unwanted tones. Basically any dye can be used as a toner if you are wanting to alter the current color reflect

I'm here!!! I have a question and not sure if u can answer it, I have seen a video where they use a purple shampoo to soften the look of grey. Do you know if that actually would work?
yes, just be careful not to use it too long- it will turn the hair purple. bold uniq on amazon is my favorite one, if you are looking for a cheaper alternative bondbar from Sallys purple shampoo
@@brittneealexushair thank you! I just have a few greys through out so it will be nice to try this out! Kind of tired of dying it so I would like to embrace my grey as long as I can make it a nice shade of grey!
I’m going from black hair to chocolate brown do I use 20 or 30 please answer
Just from this one video, I subbed. You are amazing at explaining this.
I have a question: I went to a salon and she balayaged my hair, but it did not lift to the blonde I wanted. I paid and left unsatisfied (I have been going to this lady for about 6 years, she does amazing highlights but not so good on painting the hair without foils). So here I have yellow hair (level 8), I purchased T18 and a 10-cream developer. You are the second video I watched (the first was Brad Mando). Can you tell me if I have to avoid the dark parts of my hair and only place it on the yellow? And if I get it on my roots, will it lighten? I only want to remove the yellowness. I can accomplish this with purple shampoo, but it washes out and I am looking for something more permanent. Thank you in advance!
yes, you will want to avoid the dark parts- it will lift it to an orange/brass- it will not look great. only put it on the blonde parts of the hair. If you are nervous about getting it on the darker parts, you can put conditioner on those parts to act as a barrier cream
Just found your channel… you’re awesome.. 👏
This was awesome!!!!! So easy to understand 🥰🤗🙌🙌
Hi Brittnee! Not sure if I understand completely? Am I able to use a 30-volume for highlighting only, no highlighting powder required? I have fine and thin hair, so I never use much to begin with.
you can use 30 volume with lightener but would stick to 20 if your hair is fine and thin- it can mix with the crème or powder bleach
@@brittneealexushair Got it! So, I'll continue on as usual.....And hello.... to Henry...that squirrel of yours.
If I’m doing my entire head from natural to white, I use 30 volume. If it’s just my mustache, I mix equal parts 30 volume and 7 volume. I NEVER go over 30.
My 14 yr old son had his hair bleached platinum white 2 months ago and his scalp blistered after. The toner was so painful that he cried during the process and the hairdresser was absolutely heartless to his pain he was in.
It was traumatic and he’s scared to do it again but really liked the white and wants to have it again but is scared to do it.
His hair is longer now with the top hair at 15cms and the back 5cms and would like advise going forward as to which volume you would recommend and if we should rather do foils so as not to touch the scalp🤷🏼♀️
