As someone who has been covering my gray roots for a long time, this is the first time I have ran across your video. Only one other person came colose to explaining hair color thoroughly as you did. And that is Cristy Mccone. My grays are hard to cover with just an N series, so I switched to an NN even though I don't think I have course hair. Sometimes i get an unwanted reddish cast, so I mix about a third of Ash in the same color. After watching this I'm not sure I'm I've been doing it correctly or not. 100% gray and wondering if I should be doing eaqual parts of N and A. I USE A LEVEL 7. What a great video. You should be in the library with a book that is entitled:"😅 Color for dummies."
Ikr!!!! I’ve searched high and low for a video like this. I love the scenario angle! He should have put wella in the title. I would have found it instantly!! Either way, this man just changed my life in less than 10 min.
Hey, a really excellent video. I have never seen this explained so well anywhere. I also color my approx. 50% gray roots with Kolleston on my own. The hair has a strong structure in the natural color between 5 and 6. I use Koleston 5/0, 6/0 and 6/1. I've always been annoyed by the slightly reddish results. When I last bought the developer cream, the saleswoman recommended that I use a 4% developer instead of the 6%. She told me, that this was a tip from the Wella training course. That was an excellent tip for me. The coloring succeeds perfectly and permanently even at 4%, but the hair appears less dull and red. There is no official mention of the possibility of using 4% anywhere. Have you already gained experience with this? If yes, what was the result?
When it comes to covering grey/white hair, permanent color is what is needed. You can do fun colors and cover grey at the same time as long as you’re using permanent color. Wella has a LOT of special mixes to aid you in this. Covering grey/white hair with Semi permanents has no guarantees. What color line are you using?
I never leave comments on videos. This was the top video to show up on my search "bleach gray hair, how to cover" and I can't believe it only has 15,000 views. It was so informative and detailed. I can't believe there isn't more informative videos on gray coverage! Preliminary research before tackling my grandma's head 🤣
Bravo 👏 this video is a keeper! Thank you for really breaking it down for those of us who know nothing about gray coverage. Please come out with more videos!
Ok. Here we go!! I'm a travel nurse with 75% grey and have grown it out over 2years. I'm bored but don't have the time to find a good salon every time I move. You have made So much sense of this process and I am way more confident that I can do this at home!!! Thank you thank you!!
omg finally found someone to teach me wells easily. just started back behind the chair after 10 years away and the salon uses wella and i don't know this line. i've been struggling to understand the line. i'll be watching everything you posted. thank you so so much.
This is fucking brilliant! I’m so glad I clicked on this video. No one ever explains what they’re doing with examples… just what they’re doing without the why.
Thank you so much Angelo! I went to Cosmetology school years ago and also went to Paul Mitchell to learn the modern techniques. With that said, that was over 17-18 years ago... Haha Once again, Thank you for the refresher and reminding me all about, grey coverage color theory. Now I’m confident again and ready to take my training wheels off. God Bless 💜
Very good video. It would be awesome if you could show the hair swatches of the 7/77 so that we can see EXACTLY what you are using to formulate the color. I have a terrible time looking at someone's head who already has color with new growth and trying to match it. Do you have any suggestions please?
Love how you educate! Can you do more formulas, let’s say in the blonde areas etc. Knowing how much of this how much of that confuses me sometimes. It’s hard to find formula videos
For sure. You need help with grey coverage in the lighter area? Like levels 7-10? And to your other question I use grams, more precise and easier to measure when your adding things like booster pigments.
@@angeloterracciano8222 That and also how to calculate formulas that have no grey coverage. I think where I’m lost most of the time is knowing how much of what to add to formula without overdoing it.
I have been trying to get a 4C chocolate brown on a 85% grey client... I tried the 4c by itself... Hair texture is kinky natural. Previously colored by another stylist. 20v. The Roots give my a almost 6nw. By looking at this I should have used (and tell me if I'm wrong) desired color 4C 75% and 4NI(natural intense). Instead which is like a 44/77 with Koleston. I use Difiaba
Nicole Raines nimber one is to follow manufacturers instructions on that, but as a whole typically 20 volume/6 % peroxide will give you optimal gray coverage.
Kudos for the Video! Apologies for chiming in, I would love your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Millawdon Goodbye Gray Trick (search on google)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for learning how to reverse gray hair fast without the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my buddy after many years got amazing success with it.
My roots r all Grey , hair r fine n dry, i want light golden brown shade , What color will work which can cover grey n give me lighter color My second question is my roots faded in 4 to 5 days What to do? And coloring frequently makes my hair darker
Rather than seperating all the sections to cover grey, I use the same dye everytime and just dye it all and comes out fine. Just a 4n colour and looks strong healthy and shiny
The only problem with doing that is you’re getting color build up. If you try and remove that overlapped color, it’s going to be really hard to remove and in some cases not possible to remove. If you were to toll do that at a level 6 or higher you’ll get banding and a dark gradient of color going from mid lengths to ends.
I will color my sisters hair from dark brown box dye level 3 to chocolate light reddish brown level 5 from sallys. Her hair has lots of gray on her crown area. I need to cover her grays. Should I bleach bath her permanent color and then place to different warm reds on her gray roots and rest of her hair. Since I would need to lift her hair.??? Help?
@@fireopal4534 I gave been trying something new. Using your mixed hair color and developer, do you hair then take the unmixed color and put on stubborn areas. Let it all sit for 50 min. It does help
Thank you for the video. The only issue is that color theory doesn't always work. Try taking a client from a level 5 with warm undertones to a level 7 with a COMPLETELY neutral undertone. IMPOSSIBLE to not get any warm or orange tones and get 100 percent grey coverage. You did explain hair color theory very well.
Brilliant explanation, I've never understood it before and always wanted to colour my hair with wella but when I tried in past it didn't take, from memory I didn't put any natural in the mix which is probably why. I have virtually white hair on top of my head now, with around 50-75% grey underneath around nape of neck. Target level 10 cool ashy blonde, hair is medium. Would you recommend 20vol, 75% 10/0 and 25% 10/16? Your advice would be much appreciated :-)
Why did you add a double digit 4/77warm colour to the 44/0 for 75% grey hair and nor 4/7? And why not 50/50? I’m 100 grey and tried 66/0 with 6/3, 50/50 of each colour,for resistant grey but it’s not coarse. So what’s the recipe for 100%? I read on Wella website to use 50/50 of /00 and a colour of choice if it’s over 50% grey .that’s why I did it. So if I’m 100%, i nay use 66/0 which would be flat and Matt? Why are your instructions different from the website!?
You are motherfaking awesome! I just learned more from you in less than twenty minutes than I learned in my color class! I feel like I should pay! One question… what if Beckys hair was porous and coarse? Would I still use 44/0 or go to 4/0?
There’s a few reasons. When you color hair with permanent color, you expose what we call underlying pigment and it’s all brassy and warm. So when you color starts to fade, you start to see the “red, orage, etc.” Another reason is typically “brown” in hair color brands is a warm base so it’s gona have red orange in it.
@@thenwhat23 utilise the ash family. But this is a conversation I have with my clients all the time and we talk about maintenance and why they should be coming in for routine color refreshing
@@thenwhat23 I wouldn’t suggest that. Grey hair color formulation needs the percentage of grey to match the percentage of neutral needed in the formula. That’s what fills in the white, and the remainder of the formula should be your desired color.
Hello , could you please advice how to colour 75% gray corse hair with the minimum damage to scalp and hair? Is it possible to get full coverage with a demi permanent hair colour?
Personally I’m pro ammonia vs MEA for two reasons. Most ammoniated color lines use around 2% ammonia for the entire tube, where as MEA can require up to 12% to get the job done. The other reason is removal. Ammonia being a gas, pretty much dissipates on its own, whereas MEA being an oil/liquid and must removed properly. I’m my experience as an educator and have gone into hundreds of salons to teach, I see of lot of stylist not understanding the difference and sometimes don’t take the color off properly. Then the color is still active after they leave your chair for who knows how long. Possibly days! So, knowing all that, I wouldn’t say they’re bad or anything. I just think information slips through the cracks.
Hi Angelo, I want to cover my gray hair (50% gray), with the colours of chi shine shades. My hair is 4c natural and till now i visit 4 hairdressers who could not do the job. Spend a lot of money, whashed my hair after 3 weeks and its all gray. So with youre video, i will try. Mij question is, can i mix chissp6n- 50.6n, with chissp6w -50.6w. From the Chi shine shades serie? I dont wont it darker, but lighter Pls, some advice is welcome. Thanks a lot, Sincerely, Lilian P.s. I live in Europe, in Amsterdam
Hi there! I’m a guy with a natural level 6 with 50% gray and I want to be level 7 with 100% grey coverage. My hair is medium to fine texture but lots of it. As a guy I want absolutely no brassiness, it’s my biggest issue with hair color. I assume it should be 50% 7/0? For my desired color, should i go 7/1 or 7/2 in Koleston Perfect? I also find color can turn out too dark on me sometimes. Way darker than what I expect a 7 to look like. Would the result be lighter with a 30 volume instead of 20? Or am I Leaving it on too long?
So my question is how do you find your natural level? Also my roots are grey, white blonde lol and the other part is reddish brown highlights...how on earth do I get it all one color?
Hi just come across your channel . Brilliant so informative love it .. just a question , if my underlying pigment on a level 6 is orange 🍊 50% grey I know I would use 6/0 but wella have no 6/8 wat would I use to counteract the orange please? I’ve used 6/1 before is this correct .. Thanku so much 😃
@@angeloterracciano8222 thank you so much! Love your videos, always. But I had to move away from Wella - wasn’t getting the coverage for all the grays I have. I am using Tricol X-perience Permanent Hair
@@angeloterracciano8222 That would be so helpful! Also, your video is the most helpful in the universe of the color mixing videos, seriously. The only reason I am staying away from Koleston is bc it is permanent. But is there harm in it?
@@EllaRae15 definitely no harm in using Koleston perfect, just need to understand your objective. Permanent will cover Grey and last longer. Color touch will blend grey and fade quicker. But to be honest I use color touch 75 % of the time in salon.
An economic slump and supply chain problems are making it hard to get my usual boxed color, so I want to buy a cheap brand of developer, bleach, hair color that is always always available that I can mix myself. Any suggestions?
@@moimimar km not sure exactly with that brand, but I’d take a guess the the 50 would indicate it’s for grey coverage, and the last 2 00’s would represent the color. So I’m the case of 5000, up to 60% grey coverage and a neutral tone.
Wow! Such an informative video. Thank you so much! I have a scenario. Client has level 2 color. She has 50% grey. Thick hair. She wants to go lighter, desire level 6 ash. What formula would I create for this? Is it possible or do I need to use lightner? Thanks
@@paulaluccarelli2527 correct! Color doesn’t lift through color. In this scenario I’m assuming the clients natural hair (possibly in the nape area) is a 2 but has 50% white hair throughout. The 6/0 is there for controlling grey, 6/2 for controlling warmth
@@angeloterracciano8222 can I ask a question my client has most grey around her face and alot is underneath..her natural color is a level 5 she purchase 5 A to have me put this on her grey and whites but should I not mix it with something else say like a 5 or a 6 .As I'm worried if I use only what she bought on the grey/ white with the ash brown will it show greenish undertones..?
@@paulaluccarelli2527 you absolutely need to use at least 50% of the formula, in this case, neutral. If the neutral tone is not in the formula, you’re correct. You will see the white hairs be off. Possibly green, blue, or even a charcoal grey color.
I’m NOT a hair stylist…or ever been to beauty school BUT the way you explained EVERYTHING was SO SO understandable…LOVED this !!

Permanent color and 20 vol is the standard for covering grey white hair.

Hi just come across your channel . Brilliant so informative love it .. just a question , if my underlying pigment on a level 6 is orange 🍊 50% grey I know I would use 6/0 but wella have no 6/8 wat would I use to counteract the orange please? I’ve used 6/1 before is this correct .. Thanku so much 😃
6/1 is what I would do, but you could add 6/2 for more control
@@angeloterracciano8222 Thanku for your speedy reply 👍🏼will defo try this
Isn't he Dominic Monaghan from flash forward?
Angelo, is it ok to mix let's say 6.0 and 7.12? Or do neutral tones and color have to be of the same shade family?
As long as they’re both permanent color or both demi permanent color, it should be fine.
What color line are you referring to?
@@angeloterracciano8222 thank you so much! Love your videos, always. But I had to move away from Wella - wasn’t getting the coverage for all the grays I have. I am using Tricol X-perience Permanent Hair
Do you have similar video for Color Touch series?
Not currently. Keep in mind “covering” grey with Demi won’t work but I could make a video for grey blending with color touch. Would that help?
@@angeloterracciano8222 That would be so helpful! Also, your video is the most helpful in the universe of the color mixing videos, seriously. The only reason I am staying away from Koleston is bc it is permanent. But is there harm in it?
@@EllaRae15 definitely no harm in using Koleston perfect, just need to understand your objective. Permanent will cover Grey and last longer. Color touch will blend grey and fade quicker.
But to be honest I use color touch 75 % of the time in salon.
@@angeloterracciano8222 Got it! Time to switch then! But videos for Blending with Color Touch would still be helpful! Looking forward!
Is the KP4/ the same as illumina 4/....we don’t have that line in Ireland 😳
The new KP formulation has it discontinued. This is an older video
I wish you were my hair colorist.
An economic slump and supply chain problems are making it hard to get my usual boxed color, so I want to buy a cheap brand of developer, bleach, hair color that is always always available that I can mix myself. Any suggestions?
what about 5000....triple zero..some brands have this... What does it mean... 🌷 S
Do you mean rusk hair color or possibly matrix?
@@angeloterracciano8222 hair color number 5000... Such in cramer brand 🌷
@@moimimar km not sure exactly with that brand, but I’d take a guess the the 50 would indicate it’s for grey coverage, and the last 2 00’s would represent the color. So I’m the case of 5000, up to 60% grey coverage and a neutral tone.
@@angeloterracciano8222 THANKS 🌷
You didn’t explain level 8 darling!
Hi Angelo, that's my brother's name...anyways thanks for the tutorial... Im a brunette (shhhh) covering with blonde and now 75% grey...uugghh help!!!
Wow! Such an informative video. Thank you so much! I have a scenario. Client has level 2 color. She has 50% grey. Thick hair. She wants to go lighter, desire level 6 ash. What formula would I create for this? Is it possible or do I need to use lightner? Thanks
I would do a strand test with 6/0 + 6/2 and 40 vol and see if you’re happy with that.
I always thought color won't lift color?
@@paulaluccarelli2527 correct! Color doesn’t lift through color.
In this scenario I’m assuming the clients natural hair (possibly in the nape area) is a 2 but has 50% white hair throughout.
The 6/0 is there for controlling grey, 6/2 for controlling warmth
@@angeloterracciano8222 can I ask a question my client has most grey around her face and alot is underneath..her natural color is a level 5 she purchase 5 A to have me put this on her grey and whites but should I not mix it with something else say like a 5 or a 6 .As I'm worried if I use only what she bought on the grey/ white with the ash brown will it show greenish undertones..?
@@paulaluccarelli2527 you absolutely need to use at least 50% of the formula, in this case, neutral.
If the neutral tone is not in the formula, you’re correct. You will see the white hairs be off. Possibly green, blue, or even a charcoal grey color.
Lindo lol
Oh good Lord I thought you just drank hair dye at the start!
Haha 😂
I didn't know that hair texture made a difference; I have fine hair too. Can you really mix ash with gold, i.e., NGA? P.S. you're a chemist! ⚗️
Thank you
