@@aubriemerrell3743 lol. You're welcome!!! I actually did this on my friend and it came out beautiful!! That base color alone is really pretty! Such a nice brown... Good luck !
I dont have hair but one day hope my hair will grow back. I was having chemo and eventually the hair loss was so bad it was easier to get rid of it completely. Im in remission now and i noticed fine growth. I hope one day i can actually use a hair brush.
There is one chic that is WAY BETTER THAN THIS, her name is BRITNEE ALEXUS she is absolutely the BOMB! Plz check her out, she is literally the BEST IN HAIR!!!
Been there, done that ;-) and now my hair is stronger than ever! Curly/ wavy instead of straight as it was before but its hair! And i'm eyperimenting with it as never before 😁 Stay safe and healthy, strong and hopeful Lots of love from a 5year and 11 months survivor
So I did this and it turned out great!!! Some key things..my natural color is a level 5/6 so dirty blonde..My ends were already very blonde from getting highlights over the years. 1. I bought 40vol processing solution, after researching I found that b/c I’m already a dirty blonde I would need 20vol processing solution. So I diluted my 40vol to make 20vol.. 1part distilled water to 1 part 40vol. 2. Thin sections when highlighting is key so you don’t end up with patches here and there. 3. I completely foiled and then let it process for 30-35min checking and pulling out foils that looked done. My hair is on the thick side so I had around 10-15 foils 4. I let my root tap process for about 10min and my toner process for 4-5min. This was my first time ever doing my own hair and I was so hesitant but I practiced on some bottom sections a day or two before I did the top. I’m not a hairdresser at all and was scared but the results were so amazing!!
I have been watching your videos for a while now and decided to leave a positive comment that will hopefully inspire others to try this at home. Because it works! For reference, I’m a natural brunette with long voluminous hair. I had the balayage done a few years back and paid $350 to get my hair so damaged I had to do a long Bob. Because of covid, not being able to go back to the salon, I found myself experimenting at home. First mistake I made, I tried henna. I KNOW!!! Trying to go down the healthy route, BUT, I’m past my 30’s with grays on my sideburns and dark tones just makes me look older. SO, I decided to gradually get rid of the henna by getting regular trims, doing clarifying shampoos and color correcting at the salon to get the green/blue tones off. As you all know, these color correction sessions can get very pricey. Now that I only have 2-3 inches left of the henna (green/blue tones) left at the ends, I headed to a Sally store and bought “Quick Blue bleach by L’Oréal with 30 developer and did a few strands of baby lights, keeping a slide in between and weaving the second slide I bleached, not touching the roots at all, a couple in the back for when I pick up the hair, a few at the crown on both sides for parting in the middle, and a few up front diagonally for framing the face. I left it for about 30 minutes to get a light honey color. Washed the hair and blow dried the roots. I followed up with AGEbeautiful 7A with 20 developer for a root touch up, waited about 30 minutes and added Wella’s T18 mixed with the T27 and 20 developer to the entire hair and waited about 20 minutes then washed and did a deep conditioning treatment. I couldn’t be happier with the results! The colors blended beautifully, no brassiness on the root or mid shaft sections, and small amount of very pale bluish on the ends from the old henna. I let it air dry about 50% (to minimize damage) then gently blow dried and cut about an inch off. I only spent $37 of product and still have bleach, toner and developer left!!! Thank you for taking the time to do these videos, very educational and helpful!
I’ve been following your tips for DIY hair things for years and you seem to always post just what I need when my hair needs it! 😂 Thank you so much! Hair is gorgeous! 💃🏼♥️🥰
It does take patience and practice, why I mentioned in the midway point if you're inexperienced to start there and avoid all the angled foils I started with. Thanks for watching beautiful!
@@Gullerbal yes! But unfortunatly she closed during lockdown last year I think. But she does online consultation and I'm sure she will open up again (if she didn't do so already - I'm not too up to date)
Ive watched your videos for 10+ years and youve taught me lots about how to do my own hair and saved me alot of money Thank you! I hope to one day get my hair done by you. I live on Vancouver Island. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping all of us DIY'rs
You inspired me to stop doing a full bleach retouch and do a more natural look. I now am going for a balyage with shadow root to let my hair get a rest.
This was both stressful & relaxing to watch . I use to do my own weave , and I would feel so anxious. I don’t do it myself anymore . Kudos to you for the patience you have ! Looks beautiful.
I have 25 years as a color specialist. I have switched to Paul Mitchell color. I am fighting gold tones and gray coverage level 7 and up. SOOO FRUSTRATING. And, humbling. I have not used the 2 color lines you have mentioned. I am so grateful to have found your channel. You are a phenomenal teacher! I am hopeful for this formula and process. 🤞🤞🤞🤗 Thank you!
I have been progressively moving towards gray since age 28. I’ve performed root color and highlights for years at home. This video helped me immensely! Always unsure about where to tone and how. Thank you so much! LOVE your videos!
Ellebangs, you have inspired me and I have begun to do this! At first, I was so scared that my hands were fumbling all over the place. But after the second and third time, it has gotten easier. Thank you so much! I'm a fan!
@@pescadito19 Yes. I go to a beauty supply store in Manhattan. They sell to anyone. If I didn't have access to it, I would just use any demi-permanent hair coloring for the root tap. For the rest of your hair you can use Wella Color Charm toner. They sell it at virtually every beauty supply store and online.
@@mishonkidI’m so confused because Demi permanent color washes out after just a few washes, right? I’ve always heard it doesn’t work its way into the hair. Only over the hair. Wouldnt semi permanent be better? I don’t want to do all this for it to wash out in 2 weeks like it does at the salon recently. 😩
This is literally the only video I found where someone does permanent colour on the roots + highlights … I have really dark roots naturally and it’s so hard to find a technique online since everyone just does root smudges with semi permanent dye which never lightens my roots so there’s always a contrast between the blonde and my root colour. Thanks for sharing this video and this method. ❤️❤️🙏🏼
and... just as a matter of interest - what do you do to prevent your brown from running through the blonde hen rinsing the root color???? First time I let it go but after that I was advised to put old conditioner (meaning any brand) on the blonde so the brown did NOT transfer and absorb on my blonde. What do you do?????
Thank you so much for this video! I’m a stay at home mom and can’t afford to sit in a salon for 5 hours and dish out hundreds so I did this step by step last night with all the products you used and my hair turned out flawless! My husband said it’s the best it’s ever looked! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
@Lindsey what did you use for base from redken? The 6nn and 8ag - Is it the color fusion or another type ? I can’t seem to find that info. I am in the same situation as you , just on maternity leave :)
Yeah, I used the color fusion for both 8ag and 6n. I have never done my own hair so I was an nervous reck Lol! I got all my products from sleekshop.com and they worked great! Good luck mama!
@@lindseylabar2838 sounds awesome haha thinking of trying but scared too haha problem is not sure I can get the products here , I am in Germany. But will check. Thanks again 🤗
@@lindseylabar2838 so I started the process but a bit confused about how long to leave in the root tap then toner. So I do root tap quickly then immediately apply toner on lenghts and let both process for 18 min ?! Isn’t that a lot for toner ? Cause at some point she said you leave the front parts just like 5 min .. so you need to wash them first ? 😩 ah I am lost.
Hair perfection 😍 this is my goal right here ☝️ I've been watching your chanel for the last 8yrs because I started doing my hair myself. You always explain it so well and have beautiful results. I love it!
I just want to say thank you!! These videos are the best and I could never get my hair the way I truly wanted it at a salon! Now, not only is it cheaper bc I just get a cut, I love my hair ❤️❤️
Your hair really grew a lot from the last time you got your haircut. Lots of root growth that’s awesome. I enjoy these vids on you retouching your hair. I tend to mess up something trying to get the right color.
This was a great tutorial. I can't afford to pay hundreds to lighten my hair at a salon, so I've been doing it myself and I will definitely use your tips and tricks from this video.
Absolutely gorgeous!!🤩 maybe sometime you could also show us the haircut method, it looks so good with so much volume and this is what I’m looking for too.. thank you for sharing all these, so useful xx
I am somewhat new to your channel. I want to say to you. I so appreciate your videos. This one in particular. I followed your steps and absolutely love love love my hair! Thank you so much for making these videos avail to the public at to no cost...as my lifestyle has changed dramatically since a divorce complicated by Co-vid19. I can no longer afford to pay a salon the $300.00 + as in the past. I am not complaining, I'm bragging! lol... as I think that with your step by step instruction my hair looks better than ever before! Sylvia, (until moments ago I thought your name was Elle Bangs...I thought, what a coincidence!) you are stunning beautiful, inside out! Thank you again!
Best diy I’ve seen definitely most realistic with her starting point and how she does those baby light foils. Turns out beautiful though. Looking forward to more videos
To be honest you gave me the confidence and skill to do my own highlights! I became better and better with time but now I am at a professional level, actually, I like it better when I do it myself the only bit I cannot get right yet is the toning but it is probably because of the product I use. Thank you for everything anyway.
@@JessicaLPie Thanks for asking, I just never get it to look good, it either doesn't make any difference, either comes out looking dirty rather than platinum blonde. Last toner i used was colour charm from wella
Your video helped me dye my roots yesterday. I try to go from total blond to a bit less and give my hair some break and time to recover. It was very helpful and turned out pretty well.
Beautifully crafted tutorial. Your videos got me inspired and confident enought to try some toning with developer. Two different colors, for my dirty ash blonde hair, with some grey and year old highlights. No more bleaching, no more ponytails. I can DO THIS. I have so far been afraid to do anything at home since a run in with Sun In, In the 70's:( But your videos have given me WINGS! Thank you so much!
Hi I love your hair and the colours you do are amazing I always do my hair myself and put the foils in first then go in with the root colour as it’s quicker and your not overlapping with the blonde on the dark roots again . I don’t think I would get such a lovely bright blonde over freshly applied dark tint. That’s why I go in between the foils with the root tint altogether.
There’s lots of videos on RUclips showing you how to do the tape ins yourself. I do my whole head myself and it’s pretty easy, it just takes a while to do. It’s best to stick the tape onto the part of the hair you want it, press it on, then lift it up. Kind of switching it upside down. Pull the extra hairs out that got stuck to the tape that don’t need to be in the hair sand which. Then put the other tape on top of the first tape, press firmly, then flip all the hair down again and do a straighter press for 2 seconds to bond the glue to the hair :)
would love a quick overview of your haircut. And really great job doing this yourself. I've done this for years and it can be challenging to put foils in your own hair!! lol. You are super patient...
Absolutely love your new look 😍 Thank you for sharing trying to do my hair at home and your videos are extremely helpful since I am already blonde and now want to do low light to bring dimension so wish me luck
Gosh so good I love watching your old vids too so much learning 😮 but was shocked with 40 vol old 80s I’ve gone now to 20 vol instead of using 30 vol and getting good results and getting more confident with shadeszq thanks to your explaining and will switch to redken on base 6 your formula makes sense to get rid of gold in roots !! Ohh thankyou I’ve learnt so much still more to learn ha 37 years of hairdressing 😂 still learning ❤ thankyou Silvia
Thank you for showing the extension removal. I have not been able to see this process anywhere! I am considering getting tape ins too. Your hair looks great by the way
Yes true, I don't think I have see close ups of extention removal often. I debated whether this would be a boring thing to watch but in the end I though it will be best to show the whole process.
I have been a hair colour specialist for 32 years and I was ready to be “what in the fresh hell is this”. You did such a beautiful job explaining step by step how to achieve this look. I know for a fact that’s there’s so many factors with hair colour and I hope your subscribers take advantage of your consults during this weird time. I have had to fix a lot of COVID lockdown hair where I am from. No judgement on my clients, it’s been hard staying at home.
I love this! I want to use this formula on my hair but I don’t have greys. My natural level is about a 6 right now just really warm. Should I use a 10 volume, 8AG and 6N in redken color fusion?
That’s what I need to know. I don’t have grey either so do I use the 6NN anyway mixed with the 8Ag? The 6NN is for the grey coverage but does it also change the color of the 8Ag some?
Can you make a video showing how you got the blonde grow out you started with? Do you have a section placement technique for your own hair? Especially present day with your more sandy beige balayage?
So you did not use the 6nn for gray coverage? Did you still use the 8Ag by itself? Or did you just skip that altogether? Thank you! I just realized your comment was from 2 years ago so you probably don’t even recall but I’m gonna post this comment anyway. Lol
So I just did this today with all wella products. My base color is basically the same as hers. I used only demi because I don't like how red my hair is when I use permanent color. The demi works well enough for now until I get more gray lol. So I did a Wella demi root with 6N and 8A. Then Wella bleach baby lights. Then Wella 7n root tap (demi permanent), and a 10A (demi permanent) toner. It turned out great! I am happy with the color.... But I really need to work on my foiling skills. Also, I need to get my mids and ends lighter in general. I am struggling with what I should do without frying off my long hair. Maybe I'll just keep highlighting and toning the roots and the slightly darker mids and ends will just grow out eventually.
Excellent video! I also appreciate your honesty in both your hair and your approach to coloring it. It would have been a little better if you would have shown/instructed viewers to take each highlight foil out separately before rinsing instead of sliding them off all at once through your hair because unfortunately this is how some stylists do it to either save time or are lazy and it can cause damage. I used to have my hair colored a bright, buttery blonde, but have since let it grow out to an extremely long "classic" length brown. No extensions needed! I am much happier and my hair is much healthier.
I love your videos and have learned a lot. Can you do a video on brunettes? I had black box dyed hair and used Schwarzkopf’s color corrector to remove and lift the black. I did my own highlights and used gold chocolate tones to obtain a light chocolate brown color. I actually like warmth for my skin tone. You’re videos really helped me. Only difference is I don’t like toners bc they are semi permanent. I use permanent color with 10 volume to obtain a more lasting color. Unfortunately my hair is fried but K-18 is helping me so so much.
Before I ask any questions about the colouring I really need to ask what colour lipstick you are wearing please!!! It is beautiful and you are stunningly gorgeous!!
I like the shorter look it looks light and effortless, it has movement and style. I have thick wavy hair and cut it by myself, thining out, shortening and making the ends lighter! So now maybe color!
Beautiful!

Best diy I’ve seen definitely most realistic with her starting point and how she does those baby light foils. Turns out beautiful though. Looking forward to more videos
To be honest you gave me the confidence and skill to do my own highlights! I became better and better with time but now I am at a professional level, actually, I like it better when I do it myself the only bit I cannot get right yet is the toning but it is probably because of the product I use. Thank you for everything anyway.
What issues are you having with the toning?
@@JessicaLPie Thanks for asking, I just never get it to look good, it either doesn't make any difference, either comes out looking dirty rather than platinum blonde. Last toner i used was colour charm from wella
Thank you so much for yet another amazing, easy to follow DIY hair bleeching and toning videos. My favorite hair care teacher on RUclips 👍🏼.
Your video helped me dye my roots yesterday. I try to go from total blond to a bit less and give my hair some break and time to recover. It was very helpful and turned out pretty well.
Beautifully crafted tutorial. Your videos got me inspired and confident enought to try some toning with developer. Two different colors, for my dirty ash blonde hair, with some grey and year old highlights. No more bleaching, no more ponytails. I can DO THIS. I have so far been afraid to do anything at home since a run in with Sun In, In the 70's:( But your videos have given me WINGS! Thank you so much!
Hi
I love your hair and the colours you do are amazing I always do my hair myself and put the foils in first then go in with the root colour as it’s quicker and your not overlapping with the blonde on the dark roots again . I don’t think I would get such a lovely bright blonde over freshly applied dark tint. That’s why I go in between the foils with the root tint altogether.
I may try it your way myself.
I was really hoping to see the tape in extensions going in. I really want to try out adding some to the sides of my hair.
It’s really easy to do. It’s just the back that would be difficult to do by yourself.
There’s lots of videos on RUclips showing you how to do the tape ins yourself. I do my whole head myself and it’s pretty easy, it just takes a while to do.
It’s best to stick the tape onto the part of the hair you want it, press it on, then lift it up. Kind of switching it upside down. Pull the extra hairs out that got stuck to the tape that don’t need to be in the hair sand which. Then put the other tape on top of the first tape, press firmly, then flip all the hair down again and do a straighter press for 2 seconds to bond the glue to the hair :)
Are the tape ins ones bad for the scalp at all?
Another fabulous video. In love with your color! Wish u would have included the cut as well & hope u do a video of the cut process ❤️
I agree!
I’m just wondering what your ratio is for your base colour with the 8ag, 6nn and the 20 vol? I think your amazing! So easy to follow!!
would love a quick overview of your haircut. And really great job doing this yourself. I've done this for years and it can be challenging to put foils in your own hair!! lol. You are super patient...
You are soooooo talented!!! Your hair looks amazing!!! Actually it always does!!!
thanks for watching, that before though was frightening!
Absolutely love your new look 😍
Thank you for sharing trying to do my hair at home and your videos are extremely helpful since I am already blonde and now want to do low light to bring dimension so wish me luck
Love all your tutorials so much! Only feedback I would like to suggest is better background music-thanks for all you do!!!
Omg you have so strong hair😍 i have so fine hair that i use only blondme with 2%. Beautiful color ❤️ hairdresser from Finland
Being from Finland and having finer hair your hair probably lifts really well and is less resistant to lightner. Pros and cons to all hair types.
these neutrals tones suit you well, you look very coherent and you have lovely hair, as always :) sending love
I want to try this. Can you give the amount we should mix for the 3 different steps.
I love your colour and placement/thickness of your highlights! Great video. I'm hoping to ask my hair stylist can do this for me next visit.
Thank you for this amazing tutorial! Its really helpful and will hopefully prevent me from ruining my hair next time I touch up my roots ♥️
I am jealous of every woman in your chair. Fabulous results
Your hair looks gorgeous!! Love your tutorials!!
me too! 💕
Bless you, ur hair will grow back. Stay Strong!!! I'm routing for you!!!
Wow that was amazing! So beautiful!! This video came out just when I needed it!☺️
You're my hero. Amazing how you managed to do this yourself
Gosh so good I love watching your old vids too so much learning 😮 but was shocked with 40 vol old 80s I’ve gone now to 20 vol instead of using 30 vol and getting good results and getting more confident with shadeszq thanks to your explaining and will switch to redken on base 6 your formula makes sense to get rid of gold in roots !! Ohh thankyou I’ve learnt so much still more to learn ha 37 years of hairdressing 😂 still learning ❤ thankyou Silvia
Can you do a video on installing tape in extensions yourself? DIY
Its very difficult by yourself try to get a friends help
Beautiful! I love your tips and your hair always looks gorgeous and heathy. Great job!!😊💜
I use the hydro source after coloring too.
Thank you for showing the extension removal. I have not been able to see this process anywhere! I am considering getting tape ins too. Your hair looks great by the way
Yes true, I don't think I have see close ups of extention removal often. I debated whether this would be a boring thing to watch but in the end I though it will be best to show the whole process.
I have been a hair colour specialist for 32 years and I was ready to be “what in the fresh hell is this”. You did such a beautiful job explaining step by step how to achieve this look. I know for a fact that’s there’s so many factors with hair colour and I hope your subscribers take advantage of your consults during this weird time. I have had to fix a lot of COVID lockdown hair where I am from. No judgement on my clients, it’s been hard staying at home.
I love this! I want to use this formula on my hair but I don’t have greys. My natural level is about a 6 right now just really warm. Should I use a 10 volume, 8AG and 6N in redken color fusion?
That’s what I need to know. I don’t have grey either so do I use the 6NN anyway mixed with the 8Ag? The 6NN is for the grey coverage but does it also change the color of the 8Ag some?
Your timing could not have been better! I've got a touch up planned tomorrow!!! Such great tips, your hair is beautiful 💖
Hello it's beautiful 😍What is the product brand of coloring please ? Thanks you ☺️❤️
Hello, what was your base color formula ratio of the 8AG and 6NN??
That’s what I want to know!!!
I’d love to know too reading through all the comments hoping I find it
Love your hair blonde. The best on you and goes with your skin well.
Wonderful job. Incredible work on the hair colour. TY for sharing.
Can you make a video showing how you got the blonde grow out you started with? Do you have a section placement technique for your own hair? Especially present day with your more sandy beige balayage?
I'm totally doing this. Wish me luck. Love your video!!!
Did this today, except the gray coverage, Love it!!! Thanks so much!
So you did not use the 6nn for gray coverage? Did you still use the 8Ag by itself? Or did you just skip that altogether? Thank you! I just realized your comment was from 2 years ago so you probably don’t even recall but I’m gonna post this comment anyway. Lol
Can you make a video please, how to get your haircut.
It's like a long shag. I would like to see the process of the cut as well
Same! Would love to see a video showing how she cut and styles her hair. Beautiful!!!
Beautiful results!
Love your tips and tricks. Thank you. Could you also show the results in the back and underneath?
This is super relaxing to watch
So I just did this today with all wella products. My base color is basically the same as hers. I used only demi because I don't like how red my hair is when I use permanent color. The demi works well enough for now until I get more gray lol. So I did a Wella demi root with 6N and 8A. Then Wella bleach baby lights. Then Wella 7n root tap (demi permanent), and a 10A (demi permanent) toner. It turned out great! I am happy with the color.... But I really need to work on my foiling skills.
Also, I need to get my mids and ends lighter in general. I am struggling with what I should do without frying off my long hair. Maybe I'll just keep highlighting and toning the roots and the slightly darker mids and ends will just grow out eventually.
Thank you so much for all your tips and for being so inspirational for a lot of us🥰🥰
Your hair is beautiful 💕
Wao! I die my hair and do all kinds of things, but have never been brave enough to do highlights. I’m going to try a couple of foils to see how I do.
Love your videos!! Thank you so much for sharing them with us!! We appreciate it!! 💖💖💖
Love the new look. As the salons are closed here in the UK it was very satisfying to watch! Hope to one day get in the chair with you!
Omg i am so lucky. I was watching ur 2nd last vedio that you will show us ur coloring technique. New subscriber
Can you do a video on how you style your hair, how you do your waves and what you use.?
Excellent video! I also appreciate your honesty in both your hair and your approach to coloring it. It would have been a little better if you would have shown/instructed viewers to take each highlight foil out separately before rinsing instead of sliding them off all at once through your hair because unfortunately this is how some stylists do it to either save time or are lazy and it can cause damage. I used to have my hair colored a bright, buttery blonde, but have since let it grow out to an extremely long "classic" length brown. No extensions needed! I am much happier and my hair is much healthier.
Hi.
How do you rinse the colour without dying the blonde?
Thanks so much for all you great professional advices 😊, could please mention the ratios of the base color products ?
And the brand too pleaseof 6NN and 8AG. TIA
I love your videos and have learned a lot. Can you do a video on brunettes?
I had black box dyed hair and used Schwarzkopf’s color corrector to remove and lift the black. I did my own highlights and used gold chocolate tones to obtain a light chocolate brown color. I actually like warmth for my skin tone. You’re videos really helped me. Only difference is I don’t like toners bc they are semi permanent. I use permanent color with 10 volume to obtain a more lasting color. Unfortunately my hair is fried but K-18 is helping me so so much.
I’ve been waiting for an updated hair color. I love it!
Before I ask any questions about the colouring I really need to ask what colour lipstick you are wearing please!!! It is beautiful and you are stunningly gorgeous!!
I’m trying to get your hair color and cut…what can I ask a hair dresser to do to get to your style & color? Thanks so much!! ❤
Hi Ellen thank you for your video
I so wish I could have you do my hair! 🥲
Lol I love how at the end she's just like yep hey guys so this is the result, nbd, and it looks absolutely fantastic. Like damn!
I like the shorter look it looks light and effortless, it has movement and style. I have thick wavy hair and cut it by myself, thining out, shortening and making the ends lighter! So now maybe color!
Hi, love your videos. Can you do a video on safely removing box dye out of hair so that one can start fresh . Thanks
Amazing! You did a good job with the foil than my salon attendant.
