Hair Color Mixing & Application TechniquesMixing Permanent Hair Color

In this clip we're going to talk about how
to mix permanent hair color. Permanent hair color lifts color off of the hair and it becomes
permanent. And what we're going to talk about here is different types also. We have cream
colors and they're in tubes.

And it's usually a white cream that you see when their in the
tube. Ok and we're going to show you in a minute when I mix it. We also have liquid
colors out there that you mix equal parts or depending on the company their own instructions
on how to mix it. Usually it's equal parts and you mix a liquid in a bottle and you shake
it and then you apply it on the hair.

There's also different ways to shake the color, the
permanent hair color. We can use mixers like this, bowl and brush or we can actually use
like I said a liquid, for liquid use a bottle. Ok so I'm going to show you right now how
to mix this permanent hair color which is in a tube and it's creamy. This company has
cc's that you mix in, it's five cc's so it's every increment here, every line that you
see here is ten cc's.

Ok. I'm going to mix thirty cc's which would be about an ounce
of color. Ok. You need your key here to turn that and mix it with that brush now in a minute.
After we go ahead and take this some developer here and we're going to use twenty volume
developer, you can use any kind of developer.

In this company you can use from five to forty
depending on how much lift you want in your hair color, in your permanent hair color.
Usually permanent hair color you need at least twenty ok. So let's go ahead and mix here.
It would be also with this company, is actually they want you to do the tube here, they want
you to use an ounce but with them they want you to use about two ounces of developer.
So you'll see that they, sometimes they'll say an ounce to ounce which is equal parts
or they'll say an ounce of color to two ounces of developer. Ok. CC's would be thirty cc's
to sixty cc's.

We're going to go ahead and mix the color first really well, nice and
creamy in the bowl. They also have whisks now that you can use and you see them, it
looks like in cooking you use but you'll have like a whisk. And there you go you mix it,
little bit at a time please. Nice and creamy, make sure it's not lumpy when you are mixing
it ok cause then it doesn't take well on the hair or takes different colors on the hair
so you want to go ahead and do that..
