- What is the difference, between a Bleach and a Lightner?Well in this hair tutorial video I tell you, as well as dispelling some myths about Bleach and helping you solve some of the most common mistakes.
Thanks for not idling, but you got to the point, and by 4mins, you have said the difference, explanation. Really straight to the point. I havent bleached my hair, but still this helps before i bleached it at home
Thank you for this. I get frustrated when people think the terms are interchangeable. I wish people would continue their education outside of beauty school and make sure they’re choosing the right products for their clients.
It can be hard, products have come such a long way over the last few years. When I started you didn’t have half of the available products and they weren’t as good. 😄
Very true. It sometimes can seem like everything blurs together or overlaps in some categories but I think people who are knowledgeable like you making videos and explaining things they’ve learned over the years are going to help a lot of us younger stylists get better at our craft. 👏🏻
I am a hair dresser 25+yrs and totally agree with you ! Only ever used and preferred white bleach 👍
Same here, was trained with blue but use white.
Wonderful explanation! 👏 I also run into the blue/white debate in salons at least once a week. I'm a 'Lite white' fan myself. I am also LOVING the new 'system blond' lightener.
Yes I can’t wait for the blue additive 😃thanks for subscribing any videos you’d like to see?
I would love to see a video on the differences between perfect curl, natural curl, and Affirm.
I will see what I can do😃
@@HairTutorials Also a video with High Lift dye vs bleach would be nice. Many people ask themselves if it is better to use high lift to lighten their brown hair or to bleach and tone. I personally have medium level 5 brown hair and I used high lift with 40 vol and got very warm golden roots....the lightest I can get with high lift is level 8 which is very warm golden blonde. Not nasty but very warm. Which is hard to tone...no toner works on level 8...most work on level 9 and up. So I have to overlap next time I do my roots, I overlap the last session to try to bring it a bit lighter...so is it better to use high lift or bleach and tone? a very common question..High lift dye with 40 vol vs bleach or lightener with 20 vol....Which one causes less damage.... :)
@@HairTutorials I am one of those people who went to the hairdresser to get from medium level 5 brown to light level 9 blonde and had their hair bleached (no clue with bleach she used it was 8 years ago) and my hair literally started to fall off. But she did not burn my hair, it was nice and soft, it was not breaking or anything, it was literally falling off totally, along with the root from the follicle. Not in clumps but anyway much more than usually. Not sure if there was a coincidence because twice a year I get more hair falling off as it regenerates and then it stops and I never got bald or anything but I paniked. I thought it was because I felt an uncomfortably burning sensation during the lightening process (not too much burning but uncomfortable, more than with the normal hair dye). Again, not sure what it was but I have dyed my hair with henna as I was afraid to bleach it again and it stopped falling out and I did henna treatments for 8 years and I had the most healthy hair in my life with henna on it. But now I want to be blonde again because ok..henna is nice on hair but hair is the same natural colour as henna on natural dark hair does not change the colour,...it looks the same with a little bit of red tinge only visible in the bright sunlight, nothing more. Fed up with natural mousey brown colour I want blonde again. But I am so afraid of using bleach now that I have strong healthy and thicker hair. I was recommended using high lift tint with 40 vol developer as my previous hairdresser said that is less damaging even if I have to use a stronger developer as it won't hurt my scalp because it does not have those lightening agents the bleach has. She said it is milder but that it only lifts up to 5 levels, usually you honestly don't really get more than 4 levels of lift with it and it must be only used on virgin hair so I only have to use it only on re-growths every 6 weeks. I used that on my re-growths 2 months in a row now...did not touch the already bleached blonde hair which is a level 9 ashy blonde. And i got a level 8 very warm golden caramel shade. I would not call it orange because it is not really an orange...it is more of a golden caramel colour. Not lighter than level 8. Now of course this is way darker and different than the rest of the hair which is almost a level 10 clean ash blonde achieved with bleach. To achieve that level 9.5 - 10 ash blonde I used a cheap bleach from the supermarket (I live in the UK and all you cna find in the supermarket is Jerome Russell BBlonde Bleach powder with 40 vol developer same brand). Bought that one and bleached my hair once with that 40 vol ONLY mid lengths, did not touch the scalp and it lightened very fast but was afraid to leave it more than 15 mins so rinse it off and got a disgusting bright and uneven shade of ORANGE. Literally orange...like the colour of an orange peal. Horrible. So asked a friend who is hairdresser and she recommended bleaching it again but with only 20 vol as 40 was way too strong, I have fine hair so 40 vol literally fried my fragile hair. I had split ends and my hair was dry like hell. I thanked God that I was smart enough not to use it on scalp as I would have burnt my scalp and I would have got bald instantly. I ended up bleaching my mid lengths 4 times (1 time with 40 vol and another 3 times with 20 vol) as it was so hard to even it up, it was so patchy that I had to reapply on those areas over and over again, I found my hair very stubborn, it seems either mother nature gifted me with a lot of melanin that it is hard to remove or I was not doing the job properly or the product was too rubbish to work properly..anyway I have seen videos with girls using it and they did a wonderful job on their hair so I think I just was not experienced enough to use it properly...I was rinsing it fast because I was afraid not to fry my hair so it did not have the time to develop properly. Now I have read a lot about bleaches and how to use them so I know I did not do the bleaching process correctly hence the rubbish results. Now eventually I managed to lift my hair to a chicken yellow and tone it with demi permanent Ash and Violet toner and I have a nice Ashy blonde overall. Very damaged but I managed to bring it to a normal texture by doing moisturising and repairing treatments and never used bleached again (there are 3 months since I have not used bleach anymore). Now I have done those roots with high lift and I have nice ashy blonde with golden caramel roots. Not very nice. So I was looking online for a gentler lightener which does not hurt the scalp...because my issue is not the hair as that one is strong enough (I can say after I bleached my hair 4 times it does not break at all, honestly, no breakage and no hairfall, I brush my hair and I get 5 shafts maybe on the brush...so no hairfall but I did not used the bleach on the scalp but at least I know it did not cause breakage and I started with a really strong healthy hair). So the issue is not the strength of my hair as that can cope with it as I would only bleach it ONE TIME and tone it and then only do regrowth without overlapping so it would not break off....but my issue is the scalp because I have a sensitive scalp and it kind of burns it, I mean I don't have allergies or stuff it just burns more than the high lift or any other hair dye with ammonia does and I feel very uncomfortable and I am afraid of losing my hair. So I looked online for an on scalp bleach which is not so strong to burn my scalp. And found Wella Blondor Soft Blonde Cream Lightener (I think it is a lightener not a bleach as I read the ingredients and it does not seem to contain ammonia in it), it says "Special lipids surround each individual hair and prevent moisture loss. The cream is gentle on the hair and scalp, lightening the hair by up to 7 colour levels." Ingredients: Ethylhexyl Stearate, Sodium Silicate, Potassium Persulfate, Sodium Persulfate, Ammonium Persulfate, Magnesium Stearate, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum, Petrolatum, Disodium Edta, Silica, Bisabolol, Tocopherol. I have read that Ammonia and Ammonium Persulfate are different agents with different chemical formulas (Ammonia contains one Nitrogen and three Hydrogen whereas Ammonium contains one Nitrogen and Four Hydrogen.
Ammonia is a weak base and is un-ionized. On the other hand, Ammonium is ionised. One of the noticeable differences between the two is that Ammonia gives out a strong smell whereas Ammonium does not smell at all. So I think it is a cream lightener they say it is gentler on scalp and hair and it does not cause breakage like other more powerful bleaches or lighteners do. Now I am afraid to try but I was thinking of buying it and to do a patch test and if no allergy, then to apply a bit on a small portion of scalp in an area where it is not visible to see how it lightens and if I feel any burning sensation on scalp. And to use that going forward as I think it is better to bleach and tone only once than lighten with high lift and then overlap the next session because it did not lighten enough. Plus it also needs toning as I can't leave my hair that golden shade...it is too warm. But honestly I dread using bleach since I had that experience 8 years ago. But maybe the technology now allows bleaching without so much damage. I don't go to hairdresser anymore as I cannot afford to pay £120 each month to do my roots....it is too expensive. :) Si I have to learn how to do it safely myself home. Sorry for long post :)
Thanks; interesting, & educational! A DIY bleacher & multi-colourer of 40yrs (1st used hydrogen peroxide, after a girl at school with red hair said she'd used it to get a yellow side stripe. It didn't work, I moved onto sachets of Shaders + Toners, Sun-In, shop's own bleach kits - I was 17 before I twigged that using a more expensive bleach would 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 get the white hair I wanted! Look, it was harder to find hair info pre-www) Bblonde, Wella Blondor, after so many years you think there's nothing left to know but I've just learnt the real difference between bleach & lightener! Assumed it was just preference, that lightener was newer. I do like the word BLEACH tho', it's familiar, reminds me of Debbie Harry, & a Nirvana album. 😉
I use in cream oil lightener for my roots....works well .. uniform color lift. Then I used it to lighten a wig and half the wig lightened and the other half stayed dark. So now my quandary is do I retry the lightener or do I go over it with a bleach. I'm a bit apprehensive cuz last time I used a bleach ...the hair broke off.
i learned a lot from this
i use schwarzkopf blondme bond enforcing premium lightener, and from the name it claims to be a lightener, yet it also claims to be 9 levels of lift? ive tried to search whether its actually a lightener (with the high level of lift im not sure how a "gentle" lightener could do that?) or just bleach *shrug*
Love your video
i used the word "bleach" cos its easier to say than "lightener", but i honestly thought they were interchangeable haha. like how people use the incorrect word "tattoo gun" instead of the correct word "tattoo machine", i thought that "bleach" was the less profesional term, and that "lightener" was used by professionals, thanks for the quick explanation :)
interestingly you talk about accurately weighing out the bleach/developer the same amount, vs wrongly adding "more" to change the consistency, because when i was using a very smelly bleach before i had to open a window, it made the bathroom very cold and my bleach VERY thicc despite measuring the same ammount cos of the coldness it thickened up a lot, in turn i added more developer just to make it more workable ;-; it was so inconvenient and ill never use a stinky bleach like that ever again
I use joico blonde life powder with 30vol developer (or depending on situation sometimes 20vol developer) , I believe its a lighter but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong
Chris is there a white bleach 9 level lift in Affinage?
I went to Sally’s yesterday and someone told me they’re both the same thing. I’m looking at her like 😐 with that attitude I don’t want to buy anything
Confusing.. ua-cam.com/video/swYKt-8M8xY/v-deo.html
