This is why people don’t trust hair stylists anymore. And this is exactly why I don’t go anymore. Paying hundreds and hundred or maybe even thousands for yellow hair.
The Reformed Homeschooler yup I just did my own root tint to cover my latest horrible 300 dollar foils... looks great now so I’m sticking to doing my own from now on I’m over it
i had a hairstylist like this once and let me tell you these are the worst kind of stylists! they push products on you, they leave you with an orange yellow uneven mess and through it all they try to make everyone feel better by saying "omg it looks so good!" or "wow the color is REALLY lightening its gonna look so pretty!" when in reality you leave with yellow hair and short $300
AAHH Yeah, I had a stylist like that.. Whenever she said stuff like, it looks so good! I got nervous.. She was good at cutting but her coloring was a mess. She was the first person to ever color my hair so I didn't realize how bad she was until I asked for something other than all over color and it was bad... Also was bad because I knew her outside of hair so I didn't want to drop her... I finally did though.
Princess Kaia this woman has had her hair colored and cut 3x now by this stylist. If you had your hair cut and colored 3x times by the same stylists and didn't figure out you were getting a poor job done that's on you. If you can't look at your own hair after leaving a salon and figure out the color is bad, you've got bigger problems then your hair, sweety. Schedule an eye exam STAT.
@@veronicasuestarlite4080 It can get weird if you're somehow socially connected to the person. It also sounds like the stylist keeps telling her that she won't get the results she wants until after a few sessions with her..
Monica Heartsgypsy you're right, personal relationships intertwined with a stylist, particularly family of any sort, I learned to stay clear of years ago. It's easy to forget past mistakes. I don't envy this woman's position at all, she's a bit locked into the situation since she chose to go on YT with her journey. Although, I do think people are being hypercritical of this stylist's work with her client. Actually, I find most comment sections on YT videos toxic af. xo
@@veronicasuestarlite4080 I agree with you there. It's too easy for people to get mob mentality in the comment section. And also I will never have a stylist I know socially ever again.. It was pretty bad.. then I finally went to someone else to fix it and the other person has always been weird to me since, or maybe I'm giving her weird vibes?
But... banding. The top 3-4 inches and the mid-shaft down didn’t lift evenly. Surely you noticed that when her hair was wet. 🤨 Love the personality of this channel but it seems like this poor client walks out of your salon with extremely uneven hair levels and tone every single time. I normally don’t post negative comments btw, there’s enough negativity in the world already, but you can’t continue to believe that your work is of professional quality. Growing in your profession, first requires accountability and acknowledgment. If you can’t acknowledge that every single time you’ve done a session on her it wasn’t done evenly, then you can’t fix this process for the next client if you don’t address the mistakes. I say that with the most love, but... warm roots on purpose? Ew. She just walked out with hot roots, level 9-10 at the top level 8 at the bottom and she’s still yellow AF. Not a pretty tone at all. 😔
21hairgirl nah I don’t think she cares about being filmed this is her third video about her hair, I’m sure if she didn’t wanna be filmed or was uncomfortable she wouldn’t film it
Lucy Dinn -You're absolutely correct and anyone who actually has a cosmetology license should know this. I honestly can't believe these product companies are actually allowed to say their products mend split ends! False advertising to get people who don't know better to buy the product...
Oh my god.. Is this the girl with the very long thick black hair?..... Oh my god if she keeps going on this blonde hair journey she will end up next with a pixi cut. :(
If the client is truly happy with this-I guess that’s all that matters but, this is the reason I do my own hair. I haven’t been to a salon in almost a decade because each time I gave someone a chance, they wrecked my hair and left me unhappy but unable to say anything because they pushed this “OMG U LOOK SO GREAT” attitude onto me. “Professional” hairdressers are truly few and far in between, but everyone who went to hair school thinks they’re above everyone else and that they are God’s gift to your hair.
Thank God i scrolled down to the comments. I dont feel bad for thinking this looks awful anymore... because i m obviously not the only one with this opinion... Where are the good hairdressers🥺🤷🏽♀️😭
She had it perfect at video 2, then messed it up in video 3 by taking it too white and yellowy and just something that wont grow out well at all. Client should have ran after the second session.
lmao 15:19 this is exactly what they do, they try to convince you and themselves that they are the best at what they do and that everything is going according to plan lol
As a licensed hairdresser I’m actually disgusted by this... Her hair is completely broken off and fried when she reveals it , her hair is literally yellow ... never would allow my client to leave the salon looking this way...
a terrible colour yellow and a bit green not good tones at all and her hair you can see when doing the last lot of sectioning is fried beyond belief all feathery and matted ugh aweful
Only thing I’m gonna say is it’s kind of rude of you to say stuff about people not wanting to buy expensive products and that you won’t do there hair if they don’t listen. I’d LOVE to buy hundreds of dollars worth of hair products but that’s just not realistic for a lot of us.
Ehhh good products are not hundreds of dollars my job is always having sales on prodcuts and i work in a salon its up too you if you want good products or average products your hair will thank you in the end for the good product tho.
Tyshawn Wallace you get them at a discount. Normal people either have to buy them from you or go out of there way to spend money on the product. $30 isn’t a price I can pay for conditioner although I’d love too. It’s just not something I can do. And especially not frequently. And say said person doesn’t take care of there body there hair won’t be changing much healthy hair starts from the inside.
Tyshawn Wallace I don’t even know what that is. But thanks I guess. But it’s still not ideal for many people. Because you also need oils and styling products it adds up. Not saying it isn’t worth it just isn’t ideal for loads of people.
I used monat and it did nothing for my Hair.. all their marketing partners will be like you have to wait 3+ months or you’re not using the right system but they just want your money tbh (anyone can sell with them and they don’t do background checks so some market partners are really shady make up lies)
Brad mondo needs to react to this sh*t ... this is ridiculous. You’d think she knows what she’s doing with all that talking but the end result speaks for itself.
I'm really sorry, I want to be supportive so bad, it's so yellow and I feel the high lift didnt work as well as you may have thought. Base breaking has always been something thats never worked for me. I think the toners were a little too light, she doesn't appear a true level 10, she looks more of an 9 or so. She seems like she has stubborn hair that likes to pull too warm. I'm stoked you have kept her hair in great shape, but I think maybe a color melt would have done you some more justice, and maybe a hint more of violet to the neutral to even out the blonde. You're so bubbly and sweet, please don't take my words negatively:(
Be humble enough to learn to take constructive criticism. Being an "educator" and "salon owner" doesn't make you fool proof, honey. Or instead be proud enough not to feel like you owe to the viewers any disclaimers or explanations.
Ashlyn L vanhorn yes👍🏼 I’m a hairstylist and the whole time I kept thinking how damaged and awful this color looks, and then after even toning her roots were super brassy, the mid shaft was silver-ish and the ends are yellow! Like what the heck? No one would leave my chair looking like that. The poor woman, I just kept thinking there’s no way in hell she actually likes her hair?
Brooke Grett yep at the end with that twirl. She could hit a 7g-8g and stayed but everyone is obsessed with these 11s-12s it’s insane. And 20vl on her roots and as base break what? Ouch.
as soon as i saw that wet hair back in the chair i about fell out of my chair. Ive been a hairdresser for 1 year and i would never let a client walk out like that.
I want you to really listen to me and take this all in. I have been dying hair for over 45 years. When this girl walked in, she looked absolutely stunning. Although she was using the box hair dye, she was still keeping her hair healthy and beautiful. I sit here watching you pushing products and making this girl look like a giant mess. You over processed her hair. You stuck your fancy conditioning formula to cover your mess is basically what you did. This girl needs to stand up to you and tell you what she really thinks. Just take a look before you started and now. Even after you wasted her hair you are razor cutting it when it needs to be conditioned treated, not butchered. In a nutshell you wasted her hair. She would have done much better with a box hair dye than having you get ahold of it. Learn to take criticism. You need more training. Anyone can buy a salon, but it doesn't make them a good hairdresser. Go back to spit curls and leave the dye to the professionals. I feel so bad for this customer. I hope all the hairdressers on this page will stand with me and let you know what you did to this poor girl. If you need to know how to give great treatments ask me what to use and how much to use. There's nothing wrong with not being a good hairdresser, you just need more training. You owe this girl a year of treatments. It's thin and dead. Sincerely yours, Hairdressers who care.
EPIC CRAZY Yeah omg my jaw dropped when she started thinning the her out even more I honestly wanted to cry for her. I just don’t get why she keeps going back. Maybe she really likes it.
@@hanahearts1015 I was wondering if maybe Stephanie gets a sweet discount (or free services) in exchange for letting Mandie film these videos and post this series on her channel? I dunno if thats typically how these videos work or what. Like you, I'm also a little bit baffled by their client/stylist relationship. I would not have returned to the same salon after the first appt, but that's just me.
AGREE SHE IS TOTALLY PRACTICING ON PEOPLES HEADS EACH TIME IS “IN LOVE” WITH A NEW PRODUCT / LIGHTENERS PROFESSIONAL QUUUUUALIFIED HAIRDRESSER DONT MESS AND TEST NEW PRODUCTS EVERY DAY ! 💕
In every other video she says her hair is naturally a level 5/6 but in this one she keeps saying it’s naturally a level 3. And the base bump made things worse in sooo many ways!
I knew I wasn't crazy when I heard her say level 5/6 the first two times and a 3 this time I think her hair is having a hard time breaking past the level 9 and pulling warm mine does the same thing if a stylist doesn't use a 30 volume and leave the toner on for the full time
Because she toned the roots with a titanium toner for however long for that base bump and the. Put a beige (gold and blue) on the ends. If the just carried the ash toner down I think it would have been fine...
Well, Her hair is HEALTHY which is like the most important thing and she’s pretty blonde, so that’s awesome. She just needed a different toner, technique or a darker level of toner (can’t do a higher toner level than what level your trying to tone! Or it won’t grab right). Her roots are also super splotchy, which is why I never use high lift tint on someone with that dark of a natural level. If someone’s posting videos of their work, they have to be open to constructive criticism comments. However it looks good compared to what she came in with!!
I've gone white blonde from black box dye and never ever has my hair looked this bad after that many sessions lol really thankful for my hair dossed right now
Kelly K yep! I have no respect for a certified hairstylist that sells a nonprofessional shitty hair product like Monat to clients to make money off of them. It’s horrible
@@chinaarae i saw that she is a senior derector excutive for monat look at her links no wonder she pushes them and makes her clients buy the expensive treatments
Mrs.bluebublegumdumddum _137 yes and look at all the money she’s making off of ruining hair? And it sometimes can take a few months before the damage starts. Bless this woman, her hair is going to need a rest
Why is Monat bad ladies? I’ve heard that it is bad and I even heard some people are suing because of damage. But I’m curious what is in it that is so bad and how does it ruin the hair? Is it damaging?
Malinda Smith i don’t sell Monat but I’ve been using it for 2 years and I’ll never use another product on my hair now. And I have used ALL the top rated brands. It’s hands down the best. Period. You have to know which products to use for your hair though and I think most people just assume the deep conditioning one is for everyone. It isn’t.
I’m never do this but oh my god. This is beyond cringe worthy, if she would focus more on her formulas and technique instead of pushing product she would realize that the end result is nothing to be happy about. Her mid shaft is definitely a different level/tone than her roots and ends. And she is NOT a level 10, this technique is so inefficient in so many ways.
You must be a stylist because I'm an average woman watching a woman getting a hair transformation and I don't hear this stylist pushing products at all.
I thought maybe it was just me and my eyes were playing tricks on me since they were so happy. The mid section of hair was NOT the same color 😱 I would have been in tears over this result. As the client or stylist 😳
Oh noooo... I understand where she’s coming from with the formulation but the follow-through just wasn’t there :( A little more toning and adjusting would have gone a long way. (I’m a licensed Hairstylist)
Also- I do understand that camera’s aren’t always able to capture the color correctly, but if I go through an entire editing process and notice that the hair doesn’t translate well on camera I would EXPECT people to question it. This video is all we get to see of her hair. If you see that it isn’t looking the same as it did in person, maybe quickly add a clip explaining that. Don’t resort to bashing people in the comments because we see unevenness. Welcome to the public eye. No hairstylist is going to bullshit or lie to you. They are going to give you their professional opinion. I’m all about lifting up other stylists, but I’m also all about being able to accept (kind) critiques when they come my way. That’s how we learn and grow. I’m not about people being rude or hateful, but constructive criticism? You have to be able to handle that.
I’m not a huge fan of high lifts on anyone lower then a level 7. You got her super light which is awesome . I would have colored and lifted her base to 7AA. And just foil the whole head and then tone to make sure the blonde matched all around . Her ends prob won’t lift too much anymore and her roots lifted because their virgin . I would have toned her a 10A all over so the blonde matches and prob doing color instead of high lift wouldn’t have made her so brassy . It def lightened her more then color would but the color wouldn’t be as brassy
It's all about lighting. I can't tell you how many times I've taken pics of my clients hair and it just doesn't do it justice. Some people are just so harsh about every single detail. The application was great and the end result was beautiful and the client was so happy and at the end of the day if you as a stylist feel great about it and your client is over the moon about their hair then you have done your job! That's what it's all about!!
It's a shame really as in the last video she was taken outside and you could see the colour better, but in this the lighting is sometimes ok and sometimes terrible. I've bleached the absolute shit out of my hair and sometimes when I walk into the toilet at work (yellow light, mint green walls) I look at myself and think it looks dark and yellow when in natural light it looks very light and ashy. That is unfortunately the nature of bleached hair it is so transparent it depends on the colour of the light it is reflecting as to what colour you're going to see at that exact moment.
@ 16:39 *Realizing all of your hard earned money has been going to make you look like a 1970's Barbie. Wow I feel so bad for this lady. I know I'm so late on all of this but I was actually defending this "hairdresser" in the first 2 sessions but THIS. RIGHT. HERE. IS. BEYOND. UNACCEPTABLE !!!!!!!!!! MY LORD I AM SO SURE THAT THIS IS NOTTTTT THE "BLONDE" THAT SHE HAD BEEN DREAMING ABOUT ALL OF THIS TIME !!!!!!!!!! I just hope that her husband, friend, someone, ANYONE, tells her how ridiculous this looks. I am in shock that she even went thru with all of this after KNOWING how it was going to turn out.. c'mon !!!!! && Then to POST it online. UNBELIEVABLE !!!!!!!!!!*
Loved the end result. A lot of people who are criticizing her wouldn’t be able to get this result. Of course there are gonna be some imperfections. Nobody is perfect, and she had years of box black hair color. It’s a huge process, and the next time will be even better, no doubt! Mandie could have easily went over with more lightener, or left the lightener on a bit longer to take out any yellow tones, but in return compromised the hair’s integrity. Better to have healthy hair with slight tonal diffences, than hair breaking off in clumps. Good job Mandie! I’ve learned so much from you over the years!
Dawn E a l y check out her newest video. Like I said, no one is perfect. And when you have years of box black hair color in your hair, it is extremely difficult to get it perfectly even. Always encourage, or give constructive criticism, and never hate. And she’s a millionaire, so she must being doing something right.
My privious comment was deleted somehow, but I was shook! Im a hairdresser since 6 years and this was awful. With the right toner that would have looked great. Im amazed at how you thought that was a nice looking color. Also im annoyed at how you talk like you know everything, i have worked With so many like you. Talk the talk but thats it
I just spit water all over my screen but it was worth it, thank you. Before her trial started, Jodi's lawyers made her dye her bleached hair back to a more natural color. She is dark skin toned and had a mismatched blonde (likely did it herself) that was jarring on the eyes and also made her seem... inauthentic? They made her brunette, gave her a scrunchi from the 80's, and put grandma glasses on her, as part of her reverse makeover. They wanted her to look more homely and plain jane, because the blonde made her seem out of touch w reality. (Which she was.) She was found guilty of murdering her Mormon boyfriend and was eligible for the death penalty, last I checked..
All this needed was a color melt. Using the highlift wasn't necessary, but of she wanted a lighter root, then the highlight was fine. But the end result needed to be neutralised and melted with a 6n/6na.
After watching all the video I'm convinced her main goal is to get as much money out of this client as she can before she goes bald with all the bad hair bleaching she keeps doing lol
I love how all the stylist are going off about this stylist pushing products, meanwhile here I am a norman person and I have no idea what product is being pushed on me. Heads up to the stylist, unless you're in the industry you don't care about brand names. That's not the client's concern, it's yours.
I’ve been watching you for a while and love your work! In my opinion smudging at the bowl after highlights, and not before, gives you lots of spotting at the roots. The after roots looked so bad and didn’t match the rest. This isn’t a lighting issue, why didn’t your hair looked bad or her before? It’s a coloring issue. Next time try and smudge before, wash and blow dry then highlight over. HUGE DIFFERENCE 🙌🏼
14 years behind the chair... whenever I feel like I had an off day, I come back to this video and I feel so much better about myself lol.... “a little bit of warmth” wtf?? I’m sorry you posted this ... throw the whole video away ....
Health over anything else! That’s highly respectable in my book! 😍 duh! Those transitioning phases aren’t always ideal but holy smokes so worth it when you get there and HEALTHY! 💛✨You’re incredible!
The whole reason her husband suggested going blond was to hide her graying hair. High lift does not cover the gray. Did her colorist let her know that.
Awwwwww yay! I'm so happy to see a new video! I love seeing the lengthy journey of going blonde! I'm a licensed cosmetologist as well, and I LOVE seeing fellow stylists do it the RIGHT way!!!!! :)
The 20 vol is diluted so no lift...the root color may be too deep for the highlighted sections...why not just create a shadow root with a neutral Demi...I see purple
When using hi light to bump the base anything for 4 or lower is tricking. A lot have Green in them you balance the NCP when lifting darker color. So once the hi-lift touches blonde the green is gonna show. The hi-lift shifted the blond highlights. Next time I would a base bump her then highlight.
New subscriber! A year ago I had a hair dresser bleach my hair FOUR times and all it got me was orange patchy hair she said that I couldn’t lift... even though I’ve lifted just fine before. You did amazing!
Not going to say anything horrible because most stylists have their own methods and such. I’ve watched enough of your stuff to know that you do give some good tips. I don’t have a channel and wish I did because I do have a natural talent for hair color because I studied myself and educated myself beyond what I learned in school and in salons. the learning process still never stops. the very first thing I would’ve done is managed expectations by letting her know that I’d try to lift as much box color out as I possibly could. But if I couldn’t- we would not want to go platinum or level 9-10 unless we could truly erase the stain that black or dark brown box color leaves. It’s a totally different process for me when it comes to dark box dye. So with that being said- when it came to round three- you ended up with three different colors. The hi lift was left on much longer than five minutes it seemed. But anyway- I don’t want to focus on what you did but just a few things I would’ve tried differently from the start. First- I would have used a nice professional color remover- thoroughly removed that process with shampoo and also the most crucial thing I think would’ve made a nice change here for her would’ve been to use a product for evening porosity. Kenra makes a great spray on even porosity product. Then I would’ve gone in using very thin slices and done baby lights- not all over lightener. Because just like you said- you don’t know what a clients hair will do. You do need to get to know them. And you just don’t want to go crazy on round one. Olaplex is fine- I always use a bond multiplier. I really like some of the newer products like base breaker (joico) and also pulp riot clean slate is amazing for this process of removing color. Strand tests during color correction aren’t a bad idea. Especially if you’re going to invest six hours in a job. The uneven tones were due to years of crappy dye jobs and bad chemicals that weren’t applied professionally or evenly so there were different levels of staining. Box dye actually directly stains the hair - chemically completely different from a Demi permanent that adds molecules which can later be stripped or faded away with time much more easily. I tend to stick to Demi permanent unless someone is just die hard dark and has high percentage non pigmented hair/grey. Sorry- I know this is all over the place- but I also think a more even technique during application should’ve been the main focus- after removal of the box dye with one of the aforementioned things. Like a fine slice- application - I wouldn’t have jumped right in and bleached someone up to a 9-10 to tone them down to a 6. That’s a thing that should just kind of never be done - ever. You can use a gentle 20v formulation and fine slice/weave all over - not over processing - then tone with your 6. Next time repeat and aim for hair that wasn’t touched before. Redken shades is forgiving yes- but never would I use 3 neutral based toners on top of one another without adding some warmth because blonde goes green really quickly. The toner formulation was advantageous but not really executed in a way that made sense from a chemical standpoint. When we remove all tones from the hair- and we are left with a perfect pale yellow- then we only need that violet or blue violet depending on how ashy or platinum you want to go. Neutral should be used to counteract red tones. Three neutral toners combined with blue-not that it’s a no. But it wasn’t the best for what you needed to tone out of her hair. Also- using color or even toner on the hair when it’s wet- that’s something that will really improve your end evenness in tones and color when you start drying the hair before you tone and or glaze. Is it necessary? Not always. But usually- the vast majority of the time- it’s going to make a big difference. I’m a perfectionist. So I don’t do shit half way. If I’m here for a six hour job- what’s another 25 minutes to shampoo and dry again? I’m going to earn every penny of my clients hard earned dollars. The only clients I’ve had that end up truly disappointed are because they did not understand color theory- they didn’t understand the limitations of their hair. And they will find out when they go elsewhere and are overpromised- then overprocessed and underdelivered. I think with a few changes and formulation /technique improvements all three of those sessions could’ve been a knock out. But hey- is it awful? What actually matters is what your client liked. And she likes you and her hair. Nobody is perfect and hell yes we all make mistakes and it’s a learning process. But we gotta do our best to realize when we need to go back to the drawing board and consult with people who are better than you. Trust me no matter how good I am- no matter how good you are- there’s ALWAYS someone out there better than us. More experienced. More knowledgeable. But I agree- fuck negativity. Nobody wants to listen to advice from a mean spirited hater. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Do you feel me?! Yaaass. I’ve learned plenty of cool new things from you and I’ve only seen a handful of your videos. Keep your spirits up and energy up and be the happy person that you are. Do good for others and it will always come back to bless you- as I’m sure that you know. And at the end of the day- comments make you cash money. Good or bad! Cha Ching!!!!
Way to go! Great job! She does l👀k like a different person. LOVE the finished l👀k on her. Thanks for being so kind as to show us all your hard work! Also Stephanie's patience is priceless! ❤🙏
I watched all three of your transformation sessions and I have to say the first session from black to medium blond was the best what you have done for your client. Although the back of your client's head looked pretty bad - kinda greenish - not cool at all, too much mixing of different toners perhaps?. Anyway, she looked much prettier after the first session with her long hair and brownish colour. Now, you made her look older and not natural with the super blonde hair.
I love your videos, I learn a lot from it! I don’t understand why people are hating so much, you did a awesome job!! Thank you so much for making these videos, can watch it all day! Xoxo from Belgium 🇧🇪 ✨❤️
as a hair stylist u have to be cruel to be kind as sometimes u have to say no to clients if u know the colour they want is not achievable or will not go with their colour skin, i’m actually lost for words.....
Hi Mandie, what hair care products would u recommend? I have dark brown hair naturally but i went blonde last year . However, I just dyed my hair with pervana dark brown. It looks black now, please help!
This is why people don’t trust hair stylists anymore. And this is exactly why I don’t go anymore. Paying hundreds and hundred or maybe even thousands for yellow hair.
The Reformed Homeschooler yup I just did my own root tint to cover my latest horrible 300 dollar foils... looks great now so I’m sticking to doing my own from now on I’m over it
Really ???????
This is blonde
She looks super sexy
She started with beautiful healthy hair now it’s pretty damaged, ppl got upset about it
yeah i just had mine redone for free because this "master stylist" totally ruined my hair.
MINDYWAAAA omg this youtuber?
Srs.. these videos are just bad. Even in the end the tone is AWFUL for her skin.
i had a hairstylist like this once and let me tell you these are the worst kind of stylists! they push products on you, they leave you with an orange yellow uneven mess and through it all they try to make everyone feel better by saying "omg it looks so good!" or "wow the color is REALLY lightening its gonna look so pretty!" when in reality you leave with yellow hair and short $300
AAHH Yeah, I had a stylist like that.. Whenever she said stuff like, it looks so good! I got nervous.. She was good at cutting but her coloring was a mess. She was the first person to ever color my hair so I didn't realize how bad she was until I asked for something other than all over color and it was bad... Also was bad because I knew her outside of hair so I didn't want to drop her... I finally did though.
Princess Kaia this woman has had her hair colored and cut 3x now by this stylist. If you had your hair cut and colored 3x times by the same stylists and didn't figure out you were getting a poor job done that's on you. If you can't look at your own hair after leaving a salon and figure out the color is bad, you've got bigger problems then your hair, sweety. Schedule an eye exam STAT.
@@veronicasuestarlite4080 It can get weird if you're somehow socially connected to the person. It also sounds like the stylist keeps telling her that she won't get the results she wants until after a few sessions with her..
Monica Heartsgypsy you're right, personal relationships intertwined with a stylist, particularly family of any sort, I learned to stay clear of years ago. It's easy to forget past mistakes. I don't envy this woman's position at all, she's a bit locked into the situation since she chose to go on YT with her journey. Although, I do think people are being hypercritical of this stylist's work with her client. Actually, I find most comment sections on YT videos toxic af. xo
@@veronicasuestarlite4080 I agree with you there. It's too easy for people to get mob mentality in the comment section. And also I will never have a stylist I know socially ever again..

But... banding. The top 3-4 inches and the mid-shaft down didn’t lift evenly. Surely you noticed that when her hair was wet. 🤨 Love the personality of this channel but it seems like this poor client walks out of your salon with extremely uneven hair levels and tone every single time.

Growing in your profession, first requires accountability and acknowledgment. If you can’t acknowledge that every single time you’ve done a session on her it wasn’t done evenly, then you can’t fix this process for the next client if you don’t address the mistakes. I say that with the most love, but... warm roots on purpose? Ew. She just walked out with hot roots, level 9-10 at the top level 8 at the bottom and she’s still yellow AF. Not a pretty tone at all. 😔
Lady LynZ It's not negativity, it's constructive criticism ;)
Honestly it’s so patchy.
Did anyone else notice how the client just sat there with hair mouth open with a dead stare in her eyes..... what was she thinking?
I came here to the comments to see if I was the only one who noticed that... I was thinking she looked like she may have had low blood sugar.
Laurel S maybe lol it was kind of scary
Maybe also she was nervous/stressed from being filmed? I agree and also think low blood sugar level.
21hairgirl nah I don’t think she cares about being filmed this is her third video about her hair, I’m sure if she didn’t wanna be filmed or was uncomfortable she wouldn’t film it
Brad Robertson ok then like the other person said feeling light headed from low blood sugar maybe? Or just daydreaming hardcore lol
You literally can’t magically rejoin split ends once here split no matter the product...
Lucy Dinn -You're absolutely correct and anyone who actually has a cosmetology license should know this. I honestly can't believe these product companies are actually allowed to say their products mend split ends! False advertising to get people who don't know better to buy the product...
@@mlisakiser3763 i literally have no haridresser experience and know this
that poor girl looks horrified
Oh my god.. Is this the girl with the very long thick black hair?..... Oh my god if she keeps going on this blonde hair journey she will end up next with a pixi cut. :(
Or bald
No she won't
She leaves a good amount of time in between.
Go to her instagram now she is bald
If the client is truly happy with this-I guess that’s all that matters but, this is the reason I do my own hair. I haven’t been to a salon in almost a decade because each time I gave someone a chance, they wrecked my hair and left me unhappy but unable to say anything because they pushed this “OMG U LOOK SO GREAT” attitude onto me. “Professional” hairdressers are truly few and far in between, but everyone who went to hair school thinks they’re above everyone else and that they are God’s gift to your hair.
Thank God i scrolled down to the comments. I dont feel bad for thinking this looks awful anymore... because i m obviously not the only one with this opinion... Where are the good hairdressers🥺🤷🏽♀️😭
I think she looked much better with the warmer darker caramel blonde, but that's just me.
I agree ! I think it's way too yellow for her skin tone
She had it perfect at video 2, then messed it up in video 3 by taking it too white and yellowy and just something that wont grow out well at all. Client should have ran after the second session.
@@indianajones4016 Hairdresser as well. Very unnatural. Actually terrible.
I think she looked better with it long and dark in the first video
lmao 15:19 this is exactly what they do, they try to convince you and themselves that they are the best at what they do and that everything is going according to plan lol
As a licensed hairdresser I’m actually disgusted by this... Her hair is completely broken off and fried when she reveals it , her hair is literally yellow ... never would allow my client to leave the salon looking this way...
Yeah I noticed that too. The root area looks muddy, she has a pale blond band, then yellow on the midshaft and ends.
a terrible colour yellow and a bit green not good tones at all and her hair you can see when doing the last lot of sectioning is fried beyond belief all feathery and matted ugh aweful
Lavender roots 😂
Exactly. She’s the type of “stylist” that gives the talented ones a bad rep.
Only thing I’m gonna say is it’s kind of rude of you to say stuff about people not wanting to buy expensive products and that you won’t do there hair if they don’t listen. I’d LOVE to buy hundreds of dollars worth of hair products but that’s just not realistic for a lot of us.
Ehhh good products are not hundreds of dollars my job is always having sales on prodcuts and i work in a salon its up too you if you want good products or average products your hair will thank you in the end for the good product tho.
Tyshawn Wallace you get them at a discount. Normal people either have to buy them from you or go out of there way to spend money on the product. $30 isn’t a price I can pay for conditioner although I’d love too. It’s just not something I can do. And especially not frequently. And say said person doesn’t take care of there body there hair won’t be changing much healthy hair starts from the inside.
@@evieyukihara7873 👌 just shop around there are some really good shampoos out there try smartstyles they have great deals on products
Tyshawn Wallace I don’t even know what that is. But thanks I guess. But it’s still not ideal for many people. Because you also need oils and styling products it adds up. Not saying it isn’t worth it just isn’t ideal for loads of people.
I used monat and it did nothing for my
Hair.. all their marketing partners will be like you have to wait 3+ months or you’re not using the right system but they just want your money tbh (anyone can sell with them and they don’t do background checks so some market partners are really shady make up lies)
Brad mondo needs to react to this sh*t ... this is ridiculous. You’d think she knows what she’s doing with all that talking but the end result speaks for itself.
Yeah...no. You saw what he did to Snitchery's hair?
I can't believe this client keeps coming back to her
I'm really sorry, I want to be supportive so bad, it's so yellow and I feel the high lift didnt work as well as you may have thought. Base breaking has always been something thats never worked for me.
I think the toners were a little too light, she doesn't appear a true level 10, she looks more of an 9 or so. She seems like she has stubborn hair that likes to pull too warm. I'm stoked you have kept her hair in great shape, but I think maybe a color melt would have done you some more justice, and maybe a hint more of violet to the neutral to even out the blonde.
You're so bubbly and sweet, please don't take my words negatively:(
Be humble enough to learn to take constructive criticism. Being an "educator" and "salon owner" doesn't make you fool proof, honey.
Or instead be proud enough not to feel like you owe to the viewers any disclaimers or explanations.
This girl is atrocious.
The mid section is so orange...
I agree 100%. It's just awful!
Again, it's a process
She had enough and shaved her hair off. Go to her instagram
@@ashleymaria29 But it's the third session and her entire head (minus the roots) was blond. It's not an excuse anymore.
sandiego619tj how can i see this, i MUST see this
I loooove keep on watching this video specially that fake reaction of that stupid client
SHE IS DANGEROUS SHE IS LITERALLY LIKE A KID THAT GOT A SCIENCE KIT FOR XMAS ! THE POOR CLIENTS ! SHE IS NOT QUALIFIED
Ashlyn L vanhorn yes👍🏼 I’m a hairstylist and the whole time I kept thinking how damaged and awful this color looks, and then after even toning her roots were super brassy, the mid shaft was silver-ish and the ends are yellow! Like what the heck? No one would leave my chair looking like that. The poor woman, I just kept thinking there’s no way in hell she actually likes her hair?
Anyone notice the green
Brooke Grett yep at the end with that twirl. She could hit a 7g-8g and stayed but everyone is obsessed with these 11s-12s it’s insane. And 20vl on her roots and as base break what? Ouch.
@@brookegrett5324ell yes
as soon as i saw that wet hair back in the chair i about fell out of my chair. Ive been a hairdresser for 1 year and i would never let a client walk out like that.
I want you to really listen to me and take this all in. I have been dying hair for over 45 years. When this girl walked in, she looked absolutely stunning. Although she was using the box hair dye, she was still keeping her hair healthy and beautiful. I sit here watching you pushing products and making this girl look like a giant mess. You over processed her hair. You stuck your fancy conditioning formula to cover your mess is basically what you did. This girl needs to stand up to you and tell you what she really thinks. Just take a look before you started and now. Even after you wasted her hair you are razor cutting it when it needs to be conditioned treated, not butchered. In a nutshell you wasted her hair. She would have done much better with a box hair dye than having you get ahold of it. Learn to take criticism. You need more training. Anyone can buy a salon, but it doesn't make them a good hairdresser. Go back to spit curls and leave the dye to the professionals. I feel so bad for this customer. I hope all the hairdressers on this page will stand with me and let you know what you did to this poor girl. If you need to know how to give great treatments ask me what to use and how much to use. There's nothing wrong with not being a good hairdresser, you just need more training. You owe this girl a year of treatments. It's thin and dead. Sincerely yours, Hairdressers who care.
EPIC CRAZY Yeah omg my jaw dropped when she started thinning the her out even more I honestly wanted to cry for her. I just don’t get why she keeps going back. Maybe she really likes it.
@@hanahearts1015 I was wondering if maybe Stephanie gets a sweet discount (or free services) in exchange for letting Mandie film these videos and post this series on her channel? I dunno if thats typically how these videos work or what.
Like you, I'm also a little bit baffled by their client/stylist relationship. I would not have returned to the same salon after the first appt, but that's just me.
EPIC CRAZY - AMEN!!!!
AGREE SHE IS TOTALLY PRACTICING ON PEOPLES HEADS EACH TIME IS “IN LOVE” WITH A NEW PRODUCT / LIGHTENERS PROFESSIONAL QUUUUUALIFIED HAIRDRESSER DONT MESS AND TEST NEW PRODUCTS EVERY DAY ! 💕
P1nk Emp1re Ummmmm.... NO!
"I've covered her mirror...
Sadhbh LOOOL
I think my favourite shade for this lady was that beautiful long brown multi-toned hair after the very first session
Which one ? The colour from the back or the front ? Just kidding, I agree with you.
Which shade? The one from the back or the front ? Just kidding, I agree with you.
I think I’m color blind. I see that the back of her hair has a greenish tint. 😬
How in the heck can you be at a level 9 and be orange? Girl come on??
Or use a level 9 to root smudge her now “level 6 base” lol
She had long beautiful dark shiny hair now she has awful yellow blond granny haircut that aged her 30 yrs congrats lol
LOL and that's the tea
Typical of a Jane Smith. Probably born around the 50s. Still colors her grays.
Well she is 34 so at least she looks 4 years younger !! 😁😁
Really like the bobby pin on her soften fringe lol and we should all give a round of applause to steph for her great acting
In every other video she says her hair is naturally a level 5/6 but in this one she keeps saying it’s naturally a level 3. And the base bump made things worse in sooo many ways!
I knew I wasn't crazy when I heard her say level 5/6 the first two times and a 3 this time I think her hair is having a hard time breaking past the level 9 and pulling warm mine does the same thing if a stylist doesn't use a 30 volume and leave the toner on for the full time
Wow I remember her first video of her and she deadass had long , thick beautiful hair
Aren’t the roots lighter and more cool toned or is that just me😭
I think it was the camera quality
They are
David And best friend Yalexis let’s hope so
Because she toned the roots with a titanium toner for however long for that base bump and the. Put a beige (gold and blue) on the ends. If the just carried the ash toner down I think it would have been fine...
Your eyes are not deceiving you. That is a hot mess!!!!!!!!! She should have mixed 2 developers. I CAN NOT BELIEVE SHE TONED HER WITH HIGHLIFT!!!!!
Its super yellow and me as a hairdresser i would never let my client walk out looking like that!!! #notimpressed
JHairtutorials1 ikr it’s ugly asf
Well, Her hair is HEALTHY which is like the most important thing and she’s pretty blonde, so that’s awesome. She just needed a different toner, technique or a darker level of toner (can’t do a higher toner level than what level your trying to tone! Or it won’t grab right). Her roots are also super splotchy, which is why I never use high lift tint on someone with that dark of a natural level. If someone’s posting videos of their work, they have to be open to constructive criticism comments. However it looks good compared to what she came in with!!
JHairtutorials1 just stop
Agreed!! Same. !! Her toning did literally NOTHING 🤦🏼♀️
JHairtutorials1 what would you do differently? I want to learn what to do
At 4:44 Stephanie realized what she got herself into
I've gone white blonde from black box dye and never ever has my hair looked this bad after that many sessions lol really thankful for my hair dossed right now
Very yellow...roots are showing....Should ask for money back...Plus this is not the hair colour for her skin tone🙈
Agree, her complextion is cool tone and that blonde is all wrong
lost me at monat
Kelly K yep! I have no respect for a certified hairstylist that sells a nonprofessional shitty hair product like Monat to clients to make money off of them. It’s horrible
@@chinaarae i saw that she is a senior derector excutive for monat look at her links no wonder she pushes them and makes her clients buy the expensive treatments
Mrs.bluebublegumdumddum _137 yes and look at all the money she’s making off of ruining hair? And it sometimes can take a few months before the damage starts. Bless this woman, her hair is going to need a rest
Why is Monat bad ladies? I’ve heard that it is bad and I even heard some people are suing because of damage. But I’m curious what is in it that is so bad and how does it ruin the hair? Is it damaging?
Malinda Smith i don’t sell Monat but I’ve been using it for 2 years and I’ll never use another product on my hair now. And I have used ALL the top rated brands. It’s hands down the best. Period. You have to know which products to use for your hair though and I think most people just assume the deep conditioning one is for everyone. It isn’t.
I’m never do this but oh my god. This is beyond cringe worthy, if she would focus more on her formulas and technique instead of pushing product she would realize that the end result is nothing to be happy about. Her mid shaft is definitely a different level/tone than her roots and ends. And she is NOT a level 10, this technique is so inefficient in so many ways.
You must be a stylist because I'm an average woman watching a woman getting a hair transformation and I don't hear this stylist pushing products at all.
I thought maybe it was just me and my eyes were playing tricks on me since they were so happy. The mid section of hair was NOT the same color 😱 I would have been in tears over this result. As the client or stylist 😳
Oh noooo... I understand where she’s coming from with the formulation but the follow-through just wasn’t there :( A little more toning and adjusting would have gone a long way. (I’m a licensed Hairstylist)
Also- I do understand that camera’s aren’t always able to capture the color correctly, but if I go through an entire editing process and notice that the hair doesn’t translate well on camera I would EXPECT people to question it. This video is all we get to see of her hair. If you see that it isn’t looking the same as it did in person, maybe quickly add a clip explaining that. Don’t resort to bashing people in the comments because we see unevenness. Welcome to the public eye. No hairstylist is going to bullshit or lie to you. They are going to give you their professional opinion. I’m all about lifting up other stylists, but I’m also all about being able to accept (kind) critiques when they come my way. That’s how we learn and grow. I’m not about people being rude or hateful, but constructive criticism? You have to be able to handle that.
I would love to see the stylist walk around with her roots looking like this girls, n the rest being dennis the menace yellow😳😣
Does anyone see the canary yellow in the mids and ends?
I’m not a huge fan of high lifts on anyone lower then a level 7. You got her super light which is awesome . I would have colored and lifted her base to 7AA. And just foil the whole head and then tone to make sure the blonde matched all around . Her ends prob won’t lift too much anymore and her roots lifted because their virgin . I would have toned her a 10A all over so the blonde matches and prob doing color instead of high lift wouldn’t have made her so brassy . It def lightened her more then color would but the color wouldn’t be as brassy
It's all about lighting. I can't tell you how many times I've taken pics of my clients hair and it just doesn't do it justice. Some people are just so harsh about every single detail. The application was great and the end result was beautiful and the client was so happy and at the end of the day if you as a stylist feel great about it and your client is over the moon about their hair then you have done your job! That's what it's all about!!
It's a shame really as in the last video she was taken outside and you could see the colour better, but in this the lighting is sometimes ok and sometimes terrible.
I've bleached the absolute shit out of my hair and sometimes when I walk into the toilet at work (yellow light, mint green walls) I look at myself and think it looks dark and yellow when in natural light it looks very light and ashy. That is unfortunately the nature of bleached hair it is so transparent it depends on the colour of the light it is reflecting as to what colour you're going to see at that exact moment.
Its not the lighting. The roots were horrible and spotty. I would never let my client leave
Sarah Slovak Yeah, it's not the camera... This girl needs to learn HOW TO COLOR CORRECT HAIR!!
u need to find another occupation, u know that lady cried in her car after this, i wouldve
Tabby Ward - STRAIGHT UP!😭
I cried for her! This poor girl😢
Tabby Ward she keeps coming back! Omg after the first video I would’ve found a different stylist
Doesn’t suit her skin tone. Too blonde and it’s bringing out too many pink tones in her skin making her look red in the face
I see a green tint???doesnt look right?
Chloe Isabelle too much neutral
I also saw that. With the root high lifter.
I've never said "oh no, honey" more times than while watching this entire transformation...
I'm sorry, but why would youreturn after the very first patchy result???
i love watching people dissociate while someone screeches in their ear
@ 16:39 *Realizing all of your hard earned money has been going to make you look like a 1970's Barbie. Wow I feel so bad for this lady. I know I'm so late on all of this but I was actually defending this "hairdresser" in the first 2 sessions but THIS. RIGHT. HERE. IS. BEYOND. UNACCEPTABLE !!!!!!!!!! MY LORD I AM SO SURE THAT THIS IS NOTTTTT THE "BLONDE" THAT SHE HAD BEEN DREAMING ABOUT ALL OF THIS TIME !!!!!!!!!! I just hope that her husband, friend, someone, ANYONE, tells her how ridiculous this looks. I am in shock that she even went thru with all of this after KNOWING how it was going to turn out.. c'mon !!!!! && Then to POST it online. UNBELIEVABLE !!!!!!!!!!*
Loved the end result. A lot of people who are criticizing her wouldn’t be able to get this result. Of course there are gonna be some imperfections. Nobody is perfect, and she had years of box black hair color. It’s a huge process, and the next time will be even better, no doubt! Mandie could have easily went over with more lightener, or left the lightener on a bit longer to take out any yellow tones, but in return compromised the hair’s integrity. Better to have healthy hair with slight tonal diffences, than hair breaking off in clumps. Good job Mandie! I’ve learned so much from you over the years!
And this my friend is the reason I do what I do!! Damn I've never had to use this block button so much!
Jordan OBryan agreed
Jordan OBryan she gets hate cause it looks bad
Dawn E a l y check out her newest video. Like I said, no one is perfect. And when you have years of box black hair color in your hair, it is extremely difficult to get it perfectly even. Always encourage, or give constructive criticism, and never hate. And she’s a millionaire, so she must being doing something right.
I am a color correction ADDICT and I promise you this was done poorly
My privious comment was deleted somehow, but I was shook! Im a hairdresser since 6 years and this was awful. With the right toner that would have looked great. Im amazed at how you thought that was a nice looking color. Also im annoyed at how you talk like you know everything, i have worked With so many like you. Talk the talk but thats it
She reminds me of Jodi Arias, the murderer.
I just spit water all over my screen but it was worth it, thank you.
Before her trial started, Jodi's lawyers made her dye her bleached hair back to a more natural color. She is dark skin toned and had a mismatched blonde (likely did it herself) that was jarring on the eyes and also made her seem... inauthentic? They made her brunette, gave her a scrunchi from the 80's, and put grandma glasses on her, as part of her reverse makeover. They wanted her to look more homely and plain jane, because the blonde made her seem out of touch w reality. (Which she was.) She was found guilty of murdering her Mormon boyfriend and was eligible for the death penalty, last I checked..
Hahahahahaha
All this needed was a color melt. Using the highlift wasn't necessary, but of she wanted a lighter root, then the highlight was fine. But the end result needed to be neutralised and melted with a 6n/6na.
Stephanie shaved of all her hair, moved back to Germany, got pregnant, married within a few months...... read it in reverse.
Love how you stepped outside of the box! Goldwell, Redken and Oligo! Nice job Mandie!!
After watching all the video I'm convinced her main goal is to get as much money out of this client as she can before she goes bald with all the bad hair bleaching she keeps doing lol
I feel like she hates it and she to shy to admit it
I love how all the stylist are going off about this stylist pushing products, meanwhile here I am a norman person and I have no idea what product is being pushed on me. Heads up to the stylist, unless you're in the industry you don't care about brand names. That's not the client's concern, it's yours.
Third session and still no bueno. Should have shadow root for dimensions and get rid of the gold from the mid shaft through the ends. Smh.
I’ve been watching you for a while and love your work! In my opinion smudging at the bowl after highlights, and not before, gives you lots of spotting at the roots. The after roots looked so bad and didn’t match the rest. This isn’t a lighting issue, why didn’t your hair looked bad or her before? It’s a coloring issue. Next time try and smudge before, wash and blow dry then highlight over. HUGE DIFFERENCE 🙌🏼
I love your hair tutorials!!! Please post more often!
14 years behind the chair... whenever I feel like I had an off day, I come back to this video and I feel so much better about myself lol.... “a little bit of warmth” wtf?? I’m sorry you posted this ... throw the whole video away ....
Well you just made my mind up about never going blonde from my black hair 😥
Ugh I've missed you!!! You are amazing love💗
i’ve seen girls that are still in cosmetology school do better than this... i’m so upset for this client. girl this aint it.
But if you’re level is 9 then there shouldn’t be any orange... that wouldn’t be a level 9.
Health over anything else! That’s highly respectable in my book! 😍 duh! Those transitioning phases aren’t always ideal but holy smokes so worth it when you get there and HEALTHY! 💛✨You’re incredible!
Tania Tadeo agreed! Can’t believe some people don’t get it.
becksta29. Yeah, you obviously don't get it... She doesn't know how to transform color. Sorry
I love you and your videos!! Especially being a new stylist, this is very helpful!!❤️
The whole reason her husband suggested going blond was to hide her graying hair. High lift does not cover the gray. Did her colorist let her know that.
I love this video so much and loved the first two as well!❤️
Omg I love your shirt Mandie!! 😍❤️
Wow it looks great! Ive been watching your videos since i started cosmetology and they've been sooo helpful! 😌
what was the last step? Highlift blonde mixed with toner? Or highlift blonde then tone? thnx
Awwwwww yay! I'm so happy to see a new video! I love seeing the lengthy journey of going blonde! I'm a licensed cosmetologist as well, and I LOVE seeing fellow stylists do it the RIGHT way!!!!! :)
Amy Thomason LMAO... Yikes! I now know 2 "licenced stylists" I'd avoid like THE PLAGUE the right way...
Didn’t she say that her growth was a 5/6 level in the first video? She just said she’s a 3 1/2 🤔 I’m not a hairdresser but huh?
By growth I mean her virgin hair
Bangs suited her so well (also with wavy movements on the rest of the hair), such a pity she wanted it to grow back!
The 20 vol is diluted so no lift...the root color may be too deep for the highlighted sections...why not just create a shadow root with a neutral Demi...I see purple
When using hi light to bump the base anything for 4 or lower is tricking. A lot have Green in them you balance the NCP when lifting darker color. So once the hi-lift touches blonde the green is gonna show. The hi-lift shifted the blond highlights. Next time I would a base bump her then highlight.
There’s so much banding 😭 at least use some purple shampoo to tone the yellow or something
New subscriber! A year ago I had a hair dresser bleach my hair FOUR times and all it got me was orange patchy hair she said that I couldn’t lift... even though I’ve lifted just fine before. You did amazing!
OH YA IAM A NEW SUBIE HERE AND I LOVE YOUR CHANNAL AMAZING JOB YOU ARE DOING HAPPY BLESSED HOLIDAYS,:)
"My hair is so healthy" Meanwhile I'm pretty sure she's wearing extensions..lol
She gave this poor woman multi toned Barbie hair
even her videographer was over these bad dye jobs
Not going to say anything horrible because most stylists have their own methods and such. I’ve watched enough of your stuff to know that you do give some good tips. I don’t have a channel and wish I did because I do have a natural talent for hair color because I studied myself and educated myself beyond what I learned in school and in salons. the learning process still never stops. the very first thing I would’ve done is managed expectations by letting her know that I’d try to lift as much box color out as I possibly could. But if I couldn’t- we would not want to go platinum or level 9-10 unless we could truly erase the stain that black or dark brown box color leaves. It’s a totally different process for me when it comes to dark box dye. So with that being said- when it came to round three- you ended up with three different colors. The hi lift was left on much longer than five minutes it seemed. But anyway- I don’t want to focus on what you did but just a few things I would’ve tried differently from the start. First- I would have used a nice professional color remover- thoroughly removed that process with shampoo and also the most crucial thing I think would’ve made a nice change here for her would’ve been to use a product for evening porosity. Kenra makes a great spray on even porosity product. Then I would’ve gone in using very thin slices and done baby lights- not all over lightener. Because just like you said- you don’t know what a clients hair will do. You do need to get to know them. And you just don’t want to go crazy on round one. Olaplex is fine- I always use a bond multiplier. I really like some of the newer products like base breaker (joico) and also pulp riot clean slate is amazing for this process of removing color. Strand tests during color correction aren’t a bad idea. Especially if you’re going to invest six hours in a job. The uneven tones were due to years of crappy dye jobs and bad chemicals that weren’t applied professionally or evenly so there were different levels of staining. Box dye actually directly stains the hair - chemically completely different from a Demi permanent that adds molecules which can later be stripped or faded away with time much more easily. I tend to stick to Demi permanent unless someone is just die hard dark and has high percentage non pigmented hair/grey. Sorry- I know this is all over the place- but I also think a more even technique during application should’ve been the main focus- after removal of the box dye with one of the aforementioned things. Like a fine slice- application - I wouldn’t have jumped right in and bleached someone up to a 9-10 to tone them down to a 6. That’s a thing that should just kind of never be done - ever. You can use a gentle 20v formulation and fine slice/weave all over - not over processing - then tone with your 6. Next time repeat and aim for hair that wasn’t touched before. Redken shades is forgiving yes- but never would I use 3 neutral based toners on top of one another without adding some warmth because blonde goes green really quickly. The toner formulation was advantageous but not really executed in a way that made sense from a chemical standpoint. When we remove all tones from the hair- and we are left with a perfect pale yellow- then we only need that violet or blue violet depending on how ashy or platinum you want to go. Neutral should be used to counteract red tones. Three neutral toners combined with blue-not that it’s a no. But it wasn’t the best for what you needed to tone out of her hair. Also- using color or even toner on the hair when it’s wet- that’s something that will really improve your end evenness in tones and color when you start drying the hair before you tone and or glaze. Is it necessary? Not always. But usually- the vast majority of the time- it’s going to make a big difference. I’m a perfectionist. So I don’t do shit half way. If I’m here for a six hour job- what’s another 25 minutes to shampoo and dry again? I’m going to earn every penny of my clients hard earned dollars. The only clients I’ve had that end up truly disappointed are because they did not understand color theory- they didn’t understand the limitations of their hair. And they will find out when they go elsewhere and are overpromised- then overprocessed and underdelivered. I think with a few changes and formulation /technique improvements all three of those sessions could’ve been a knock out. But hey- is it awful? What actually matters is what your client liked. And she likes you and her hair. Nobody is perfect and hell yes we all make mistakes and it’s a learning process. But we gotta do our best to realize when we need to go back to the drawing board and consult with people who are better than you. Trust me no matter how good I am- no matter how good you are- there’s ALWAYS someone out there better than us. More experienced. More knowledgeable. But I agree- fuck negativity. Nobody wants to listen to advice from a mean spirited hater. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Do you feel me?! Yaaass. I’ve learned plenty of cool new things from you and I’ve only seen a handful of your videos. Keep your spirits up and energy up and be the happy person that you are. Do good for others and it will always come back to bless you- as I’m sure that you know. And at the end of the day- comments make you cash money. Good or bad! Cha Ching!!!!
Way to go! Great job! She does l👀k like a different person. LOVE the finished l👀k on her. Thanks for being so kind as to show us all your hard work! Also Stephanie's patience is priceless! ❤🙏
I watched all three of your transformation sessions and I have to say the first session from black to medium blond was the best what you have done for your client. Although the back of your client's head looked pretty bad - kinda greenish - not cool at all, too much mixing of different toners perhaps?. Anyway, she looked much prettier after the first session with her long hair and brownish colour. Now, you made her look older and not natural with the super blonde hair.
Turned out beautiful!! I’ve been watching your videos for a long time & was so happy to see you upload a hair tutorial 😍
I love your videos, I learn a lot from it! I don’t understand why people are hating so much, you did a awesome job!! Thank you so much for making these videos, can watch it all day! Xoxo from Belgium 🇧🇪 ✨❤️
I love watching your tutorials. Thank you for the education.
Kayla Warkentin you are the BEST! Thank you for watching girl xoxo
U do such an amazing job! Thanks for the education! I’m a hair stylist too!
as a hair stylist u have to be cruel to be kind as sometimes u have to say no to clients if u know the colour they want is not achievable or will not go with their colour skin, i’m actually lost for words.....
Turned out real pretty! Great work!
This was amazing!!! Loved the end result
Writing Made Simple hey thank you so much!!! You are sweet, thank you for the support
You have done such a beautiful job ! 😍
Them green roots though...
Wowwww im obsessed😍
Hi Mandie, what hair care products would u recommend? I have dark brown hair naturally but i went blonde last year . However, I just dyed my hair with pervana dark brown. It looks black now, please help!
