    Hey Lexi, Ive been following your channel since I started beauty school last year and I can say I really learned alot about haircolor, highlighting and balayage from watching all of your videos and seeing how passionate you are about your craft just fuels my passion and creativity even more. I just finished beauty school and got my cosmetology license and I cant wait to use what I learned into action. You inspire me so much.

    this looks great and I love doing my own thing and incorporating lowlights and highlights where I like instead of traditional ways. you definitely have a great glowing​ personality in your hair art work. I was wondering if you can do some more of explanation on how to choose which colors and how you predict the color outcome. I'm good with the color wheel and understand how to lighten if you want a different level but I'm having a hard time with how to formulate a specific color or what toner to use when if that makes sense. I'm working on it though! thanks for the videos! they're helping me so much!!

    This is sooooo dope! I also see what you mean about using Goldwell's Colorance. I'm getting into the habit of finding what will work for me as far as demi/toners as I work on practicing blonding techniques and formulations! Your videos have always been helpful and I'm glad that you post these videos as well as mention what you're using and how you're using it to give us (stylists and non-stylists) an understanding as to why formulation is super important. Thanks again!

    Ur videos are amazing !!! I’ve been doing hair for 8 years and just recently started doing color I don’t know why I’ve always been so scared to do it but now that I’ve started im realizing it’s so much fun and I love the whole process of just changing someone’s look. Thanks for your videos very informative I’ve learned a lot. I love how you put the foil on top of the balayage paddle & then apply the color makes it so much easier! I’ve never even thought to do that lol :)

    You do such great blends. I actually use Wella color charm as toners with 5 volume and they give me great results. Like shades, ​they have a very wide range of colors to blend for the perfect finish.

    what's your opinion on highlights at the hairline. do you do them to the baby hairs or the section behind? I am obsessed with the balayage and baby lights meathod. I've been doing it for years like that and recently started doing the tease meathod. I'm liking it but it's kinda hard to know how the highlights will come out. I'd be interested in another video like that with more in depth about it. I've watched the few other ones you've made.

  • @annielewis266
    @annielewis266 Před 6 lety

    Goldwell is my favorite color line!! Goldwell Colorance is typically 2 parts Colorance lotion to one parts color. But when I do lowlights, I like to do 1 parts Colorance lotion to 1 part color. It gives perfect results!

    When you are doing colour corrections do you do clients during development time also or just dedicate the whole time slot to the one person? Does that make sense?

    Wonderful work! Would you mind telling me if you know what % developer is in the box for Casting (L’oreal)? I’m trying to find a toner, but only have access to limited brands/products where I currently live and I believe the majority of box dye contains 20%. I just want to tone.. can box dye developer be diluted (conditioner or water) to make it less %? And.. if I mix equal parts of 2 colors , such as 10.1 and 6.0, do I get the result of 8.01/8.10? I can’t find any level 8 here! Thanks in advance

    @lexi what makes the decision whether or not to use blue or violet lightener?

    • @LexiDawnMcc
      @LexiDawnMcc  Před 6 lety +1

      I don't usually pick the lightener for the tint it has I just go off which lightener works best. But I guess if you wanted to pick between colors use blue for darker (natural) hair and violet for lighter (natural) hair.

    • @LexiDawnMcc

      if your hair isn't damaged from bleaching it than you should be able to style it like normal.

    • @danikahsmith1924
      @danikahsmith1924 Před 6 lety

      Lexi Dawn awesome thanks for the answer. I'm also just wondering if I can go over the bleached hair from over a year ago now without breaking it and keep it long healthy. I know your not supposed to but since it's been over a year what do you suggest without seeing me. the rest is vergin. thanks KS again for your help.

    • @olenay2779
      @olenay2779 Před 6 lety

      danni pink you should look into going to a salon and get an olaplex treatment or get your color done professionally to avoid breakage ! Bleaching your hair at home is risky

    • @danikahsmith1924
      @danikahsmith1924 Před 6 lety

      I have bleached and toned my own highlights for years and I actually use redken ph bonder instead of opalex. I've just never gone full over blonde​ before. I do foils myself once a year and use a leave in and coconut oil and use curly girl shampoo and conditioner. I never straighten or blow-dry maybe twice a year and that's it. I'm just gathering all the information​I can before I do it especially when I have type 2c/3a hair and it's to my butt. but thanks for your concern. 😉
