- retouching dark roots with lightener
*key points/steps:
1- section hair off into 4 quadrants
2- cover previously blonde hair with conditioner
3- take a very thin horizontal subsection (leave hairline out for last if it is fragile)
4- apply lightener on your root area (creme lightener can touch the scalp)
5- flip hair over and make sure the bottom is saturated with the lightener; fold it over
6- repeat the process throughout the whole head; put a plastic cap over it to avoid the lightener drying out
7- there is no set processing time; you have to watch it until it reaches the level you want (it will more than likely be an orange or yellow shade and will need a toner- that is normal)
8- towards the end of the processing time, you can lightly blend the lines together (where the new lightener meets the older blonde). This will help avoid a band and will not be damaging if it's only left on for a few minutes
9- shampoo, condition & tone if needed
• blonde root retouches are for solid blondes with grown-out roots
• crosschecking will help avoid any missed spots. You can crosscheck by taking hair the opposite way you applied the lightener- if your sections are horizontal, you will crosscheck with vertical sections
• creme lighteners work best for on-the-scalp applications
• if your scalp is burning, you can use sweet n low packets

I honestly truly have never had an interest in listening to professionals about this stuff before, the lingo and way they explain things make me so bored and annoyed... I'll just shave my head Brenda. But I mean it when I say your videos are SO refreshing, simple, clear, and somehow not boring even if you're being technical. You should teach this stuff for a living if you're not already. Thank you again from me and my pale blond hair!
I went to cosmetology school, graduated, had the cutest shop, and failed. I have no confidence whatsoever. School seemed so rushed for me. I can get more out of one of your videos than I did in the 18 months i went to school. You are the best!! Thank you for explaining things so well! ❤
So excited to have caught you live! Learn so much!!! Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you so very much, I love your videos and the way you explain things. Can you do a video on how to fix missed spots and banding and the wrong toner used from multiple times?
Ohhh that would be a very helpful video!!
I absolutely love ur videos!!!!! I’m learning so much 🎉🎉 thank u
Love your tutorials. ❤❤❤❤
This tutorial was so good. I have watched it 2 times already. I was blonde, but it is so expensive to maintain because I have to try to outrun the gray! I transitioned from brown to blonde so I could eventually rock my silver grey but the demarcation between color is killing me so I decided to going platinum. Your tutorial addressed so many questions. I have bleached before and hated the results, so I went to the salon. I have to cut the salon color cord! You have given me the tools to do it!
It’s ironic that you posted this today. I am just now seeing it after I touched up my roots this evening. I had a little breakage, but it is not easy doing it yourself. I have much respect for you and other stylist. You guys are awesome!! Thanks for the video. This will be my last touch up. I will be going darker, natural, for fall and winter. Hopefully, I will remember the conditioner when I bleach next time.
You should demonstrate how to retouch up a highlighted root!
I didn’t know about the hair that need to breathe …… thank you!!!❤
I'm just dying to know the origins of exactly how someone discovered that putting sweet n low on a clients burning scalp actually helped stop the burning process while they were getting their hair done. I'm imagining a really great "Saturday Night Live" skit. 😆
Can you do a grey hair tips tricks video? Like I have coily pieces standing up on my head. What can I do? 😊💖
I really like your vibes and the way you deliver the info with a dash of humour ❤ definitely a like and a sub from me 👍🏼
I so look forward to these videos! fridays and sundays!
You explain things so perfectly. xx
Thank you so much. You are amazing. I’m learning a lot from you.👍🙏🏻❤️
This is so helpful. Thank you!
Thank you taught me a lot!!!
I would like to thank Bertha and I love those clear gloves 😂😂😂 Love these videos ❤❤❤❤
would love to see you try the Bondbar powder bleach. I used it for the first time over Ion and my hair felt SO much better and less dry afterwards it was unreal
I would love to know more about this!! What developer did you use?
@@alisonwonderlandof1 20!
@@itsbelela thank you! I may need to check that out. I just saw another professional try and rank about 10 sally bleaches to see how they stack up and 3 stood out. Bondbar was not in the mix nor was the ion cream bleach, which i use but I'm about to switch up because I was very impressed by the Age beautiful/zotos ultra bond lightener. It lightened the most and I see now it has quite the cult following. Her pick for all around was Wella but everyone was surprised by the GENERIC BRAND at sally. It was great. Easily as good as wella and better than ion powder. The reason ultra bond wasn't her favorite was based on smell. She said it was strong but every single brand are tried to took the level 2 sample to 7.5 in one 45 minute session with 20v except ultra bond that went to at least an 8 and they have a cream as well. Wow did I just write this much about lightener on a simple response? Lol. I did. I just did my roots and I'm not happy. Back to sally since I can't get the professional stuff from Amazon like just a year ago. Than you for the bondbar recommendation. I think that's the one my daughter just told me about. Hmmmm... Which one will I try. Ty💕
Absolutely love your explanations!!
thanks for the extremely timely advice! 💖💖 i am about to do something like this to my regrowth
I'm so glad I found you! How would you recommend doing a blonde when graying?
Also, a question--if I do this step, then tone, and still have kinda yellower roots.... Was my toner not strong enough, was the developer not strong enough, or did I not leave it on long enough?
Can you Please do a root touch up
For grey hair roots. I need help
Question do you tone the whole head or just where you did the bleach thanks
If I bleached my hair blond then used t18 and after one week it turned a bit orange, Do I use T14?
This sweet and low what do you do please, mix it then dab it on?
you can literally just pour it on the parts that are burning- it works really well and fast
