    Hair COLOR THEORY mini class: HOW TO lift DARK base colors without bleach or brass!Mini color class! FORMULA AND PROCESS!
    How to lift a natural level 3 to a COOL level 6! WITHOUT BRASS!
    It is sometimes scary to try and lift dark hair, because it seems to always lift too warm! In this video I will explain my favorite formula for doing this and the theory behind why it works!
    You will also be able to formulate if you use a different color line!
    I feel like there isn't enough color theory education on youtube so if you like this video, let me know in the comments so I can make more for you!

    So what you said is: With Bleach, the Developer controls SPEED of lift; with Color, the Developer controls the number of LEVELS of lift.

    I am so thankful that I stumbled upon your channel!!
    I’m in cosmetology school presently & I’m a little over halfway through. My plan is to obtain my license and then take the Instructor Course.
    We are studying in depth, color theory right now - and as I’m sure you know, each time you take a color class it’s like flashing lights appear over certain things that didn’t “shine as bright” before.. and that’s exactly what your short 12 minute video did! It was SO HELPFUL. I don’t even use Wella and the way you broke that formulation down was just magic. I didn’t have to rewind, you were so thorough and the tempo was 💯.
    I have endless good things to say about this video- but most of all, I want to say THANK YOU❤❤❤❤

    Thank you for this video. I found this very helpful. Is it possible you can do a video with the exact color shades from Wella line for example: 6 Ash and the ounces needed + 6 Neutral and the ounces needed of that shade as well and the amount of ounces and level needed for the developer. I am still a rookie at this, and I realized the hard way, that if I don't get the right quantities I won't get the desired results. I have been trying to get the right shades to go from 6 to 8 without an orange/brass undertone. While simultaneously trying to cover 40% of grays.

    Oh my gosh, that video was so helpful. I have a client coming in soon who is a natural level two or three and she wants to be lighter all over but also have caramel highlights and the last time she came in I did a balayage throughout her whole hair then toned it. This was probably 6 to 9 months ago so the toner has faded off and now a raw 7 probably. How can I go about using this technique but also adding a different color to the already lightened hair to make it look more honey?

    Thank you, Lauren! I am level 5-6 naturally but I have box dye on my hair. I did a vitamin C treatment and now I'm a very warm 6 with about 30% grey. I want to keep my roots dark and lighten my lengths (my regrowth is about 2 inches) but I think I may need to break my base so I was thinking I would bring the lightener up to my roots during the last 10 minutes of processing, does that sound right? I'm hoping to do an ombre down to bright blonde ends, maybe a cool level 9. Does that sound like it could work?

    Great explanation!!! I am a new WELLA Brand Educator and this video is clutch! Well done! Only thing I would tell you is that with WELLA, 40 volume developer actually only lifts 3 levels with color, 4-5 when using Special Blondes series. It’s sometimes confusing because most developers lift more, but with WELLA, their developers are a bit different.

    Hi lovely !
    Thanks for this tutorial!
    So helpful and you’re so clear .
    I need to lift my sis in laws hair also .
    So this is what I’ve recently done .
    Asian hair level 4 , virgin hair. And she has 30% white .
    I applied a level 6N , 7.16 with 20 volume. Using wella koleston also .
    It turned out real nice but she still wanted more lift but doesn’t want me to bleach it .
    I tried lifting it last week (I know color doesn’t lift color) but I applied a 7N and 7.1 with 20vol .
    Her roots turned a yellow shade , it grabbed onto her white hair .,
    I had to re color it with a 6N and it was good .
    Not sure what to do as she wants it to a level 7 ash so she doesn’t have to touch up with coloring her whites every 3-4 weeks .
    Should I use a color delete ? To remove her existing color and then apply a lighter shade ?
    Sorry for lengthy message .
    💛 Tina

    Can you please clarify the amount of the special mix you use for this? Would it be like 1/4 of the tube? Half? Thank you
