  • Here I am, dying my hair copper after spending months trying to get it to blonde!
    I removed the henna from my hair over the past few months and decided that I was wanting to keep some of the warm tones in my hair without being confined to henna!

    Hi cutie! This is coming from a Licensed Advanced Cosmetologist over 30 years. A quick color lesson, lol. We lift hair color or bleach it to remove color. When we make it lighter, we are taking color out. When we go darker or red, we have to fill the color back in that we took out. Thats what you did those first two times, you just didn't know it. You did it right, just didn't realize what you were doing! It looks great and you did perfect!! When you are putting color back in the hair, going darker or red, 10 volume will do the job. It's better for the hair too. 20 volume and up is good for lifting color out or covering gray. You really did great, hope what I said makes sense to you! I love this!!

  • @samanthajo5375
    @samanthajo5375 Před 3 lety +1

    I LOVE this color on you!!! Honestly, I found your videos at the start of quarantine, and they inspired me to go from platinum blonde to copper. It's been a little struggle because, as you saw when you did your first mix, it's hard to get pigment to stick to really light hair, especially when you still want it to be light. A few tips I learned were to not attempt level 10's and stick to only a small portion of level 9's. Or, alternatively, choose a level 7 or even 6 and do a half and half ratio with a 9. Sometimes the area where my old platinum grew out still seem a bit washed-out because I never properly filled the hair before coloring over it with a permanent dye. When I start to notice it, I do a DIY color treatment of Adore semi permanent dye and conditioner to refresh the color and give it the slightest orangey gold kick. Not sure if any of that helped at all, but I figured I'd throw it out there if you started to experience the same thing!

    THIS IS GREAT!! This is a little lighter than my natural hair color and I went blonde over quarantine and wanted to go back to my natural color. USED HENNA! but it was over super cool tones so it just went brown. tried to remove it, and the color remover ended up having lightener, and I was yellow with muddy green tones. tried a permanent dye over it and it went brownish-black with some red. I've been waiting to find the right combination of hair dye and this was definitely the closest!!

    I too broke the henna cycle this summer. After 2 years the color was SO dark even though I was only doing the roots. It was not copper. Looking back at pictures it kind of makes me sad my hair looked like that for so long. So I too bleached it out of my hair, rocked an unflattering strawberry blonde this summer and then dyed it back to copper with CHEMICALS and I could not be happier!! Welcome BACK to the land of copper hair!! I prefer it over the blonde, just like on myself ❤️

    • @TheAuroraCodes
      @TheAuroraCodes  Před 3 lety +2

      I was the exact same! Mine was getting so dark and I wasn’t liking it anymore 😟 I wonder why it does that?

    • @kennethjoneification
      @kennethjoneification Před 3 lety

      I had an idea that the darkening is because the roots, which haven't had the chance to be bleached by the sun, are darker naturally than the rest of the hair. So if you're always hennaing the roots as they grow out, your overall colour becomes darker. ??? Just an idea. I'm going for a true, rich, mermaid red colour rather than copper, and I'm still finding that the ends are still bright red but the top half of my head is more of a burgundy/brown colour

    I love this shade of copper on you, Courtney! I wonder if the reason the first round didn’t work well was because you just wing it when you mix color! (I watch a lot of guy tang) Guy talks about the alkalinity of hair color and if you don’t have the right amount of developer, the color you mix won’t be able to open the hair cuticle to deposit color. I know you said you like mixing the color with feel, just a thought that you could maybe try to weigh your color and developer next time and see if that would make a difference in making the color a bit more predictable 😀

    Hairstylist here 😍 Next time use a Demi permanent color with 10 volume. You’re only depositing and not attempting to lift and I don’t see any gray in your hair. 20 vol is equal parts lift and deposit. You’re looking for tone on tone. So glad to see you going back to red!

      @@TheAuroraCodes Are you shopping at Sally’s? Shoot me a DM on Instagram and maybe I can send you some product! The problem with red is that the molecule is extremely large, so it leaves the cuticle quickly. Are you using a professional sulfate free shampoo intended for colored hair? I am a redhead as well, and the most effective things to prolong your color are good shampoo, only washing the hair 1-2x a week, and a color depositing conditioner. A color conditioner has a bit of semi-permanent direct dye in it, so it refreshes your color every time you use it. I will be honest, a professional level hair color is going to work better. Send me a DM and let’s chat! I’ll do some research on Sally’s and see what I think is good there! My insta name is magic and hair 🤎
