    Thank you so much for sharing this method, I’ve been using it since I discovered your channel a couple of years ago. It’s really brightening and easy to do on yourself, a couple of babylights on the crown makes such a difference, it adds a lot of blonde. The main thing for me is that I get minimal damaged hair and a lot of blonde. The quality of the hair is much better with this method.

    This is so helpful, this tutorial has finally freed me from looking shabby or having to die back to my natural level 6 colour, as spending 4h at the salon is no longer an option with a full time job and a young child. My hair looks better than ever (I copied the formulas exactly). Honestly, thank you so much , Sylvia.

    Forever ago you thought me how to self cut my (super curly) hair, how to do a balayage and lighten it the correct way and also about ingredients. It always worked out so wonderfully! I took my time to heal my hair (I'm from that era of straighten your curls with a flatiron lol) and to go from almost black to super duper blond hair, bit by bit it was finally getting so long, healthy and strong after years. My hair was in the most beautiful state ever! I went to a hairdresser 1 time in between.. I even told them this story... yet they managed to mess it up sooooo bad, like reaheallly bad... they cut it all wonky and left me with one strand of hair and way darker hair, a coloring and cut my 5yo niece could've done with $1 paint and baby scissors 😭 Now you uploaded this technic and I will try this one as well. Moral of the story, I trust you more than ANY of my local hairdressers 💯🥰 Thank you so much Silvia for teaching me how to handle my hair with care💓

I have cool skins undertones, blue eyes without a darker rim and my natural hair is close to the same color as yours so thinking more ashy highlights makes sense for me.

    I can’t tell you how many hairdressers I’ve been to. How much money that I have spent. I have left hairdressers with worse hair coloring and highlights than I walked into. I left a salon that literally burned fried my hair all because the hairdresser forgot to remove foils and wash out bleach! It was another HD working in salon that reminds her about my processing time! In short when she finally comes around to removing and washing. My hair was falling off and it was mushy and next day OMG it was ruined! I cried because I had a wedding to attend and I was a bridesmaid. When I finally found your channel. I watched over and over all of your videos. Learned what I needed. Even bought Esalons hair color for base. I haven’t tried it yet. I will be using it all this week. I’m scared that I’ll screw up the whole process. Probably because I have been jaded by sooooo many hairdressers in the past. I do have more faith in your ability to teach and tell people about the process. But you actually do it on yourself. This means a great deal more for people like myself who have been through hell with people who stated they are professionals. Thank you Sylvia for having the courage to do these videos. I’m sure it takes some bad feedback but also get great compliments thanks again.

      My haidresser does it for $100, BUT month ago suggested that we do darker roots where I already am blonde for years, and I have been hating it so much. It has been 5 weeks and I feel better about it but now my grays are shining through that dark almost black roots, so I am planning to work on it myself to brighten it a bit. I want to go to different hairdresser in 6 weeks, but in the meantime i will do some highlights.

    @TrueWalker88 9 місяців тому

    They both look great and are obviously beautifully done, but I preferred the before color. It brought out the brows and eyes, had so many layers of warm color. The contrast gave more of a brightening effect than the sort of washed out overall blonde in the after, especially on someone with naturally darker coloring. Other than just a few highlights, overall blonde seems to best suit those who are naturally blonde. Thanks so much for the tutorial!

    Is the first step with the base color like bleaching? Or is it a colour with a higher developer?
    The regrowth on my hair is pretty dark (level 3) and the rest of my hair is Level 7-8.
    Do I have to bleach all the black regrowth then, before putting on the base color - and then highlights?

    • @stefaniemorgan8231
      @stefaniemorgan8231 Рік тому +3

      I am not a professional, but do highlights at home on my level 4/5 hair. I recommend lifting first and diffusing the line of demarcation by doing teasy lights (teasing those super thin baby lights). If you're not covering gray hair at the root, a root tap then overall toner would work well. Just make sure not to overlap your bleach onto previously lightened hair because this could cause damage. I prefer 20 volume developer (low and slow) rather than 30. Because my hair is stubborn and doesn't lift easily, I will typically have to reapply fresh bleach after 30 minutes on the head. Doing this on darker hair will give you lots more contrast because of the darkness and depth of your natural color. If you're looking to do something very seamless, I recommend a mowhawk section instead of the fan placement.

    • @DeadInsideUniverse
      @DeadInsideUniverse Рік тому

      If your hair is natural, meaning not previously colored then a toner won't work. You'd have to use a permanent hair color all over to change the tone. I would stick with a beige or mix half ash and half neutral. If you use all ash it will probably result in either a green hue or possibly blue or lavender. Just a tip!

    • @funnygal4u2
      @funnygal4u2 5 місяців тому

      Wella T18 and T27 say toner, but since they have to be used with 20 vol developer, they are actually color and will shift your hair if it is natural, meaning you have never colored your hair. And actually, you can use a toner on natural hair to tone down unwanted warmth or if u wanted to add warmer tones or deepen naturally dark hair or as an enhancer for reds and copper tones. You just can’t lift the hair with toners meaning u can’t use it to make hair lighter cause toners are deposit only and won’t provide any lift, which is why they are semi-permanent.

      If it is too much lightness than what you wanted, then adding lowlights (reverse Balayage) can do wonders! Personally, I think if the lowlights are added back in the same way as balayage are added (not too thin like highlights!) it can look so so great! It can break up the lightness and add more of your natural and add depth! Good Luck!

    Soo the base was to lighten? 7N is lighter level than your roots Did you do all of your roots with base color and how far did you go Down? And you only put highlights on the sides not the back?

      7N is never her natural/before at the roots and length in the back. She is darker.

      I'm wondering the same! The 7N threw me off. Bc it's not her normal level and it's lighter than her roots and length behind the head, I'm a little confused about why/how it was used. Also wondering if the highlights were in fact only added to the sides and if so, why?

      The 7N was to even out and refresh the base colour.

    I'm intrigued by the Shades EQ root smudge toners, being 6N and 5G. I get the 6N, but isn't 5G golden? If I put that on my hair, it'd go orange! lol

    • @Ellebangs
      @Ellebangs  Рік тому +6

      A 5G is quite dark and has very little warmth. But going over any highlights at the roots you want to avoid using something too aggressively ashy or your highlights will look green at the roots.

    • @DeadInsideUniverse
      @DeadInsideUniverse Рік тому

      She didn't do anything in the back. If you want to learn how to do the back yourself, just search for exactly that! If you have 2 mirrors it's alot easier. You place 1 in front of you and the other behind and then you can see what you're doing back there! Doing a root smudge after lightening also helps to cover up, blend in any harsh lines you might have made when applying the lightener/bleach. If you can't access professional color like REDKEN Shades EQ, you can always find a demi-permanent hair color that matches your root color at the drugstore or on Amazon. You can also use permanent color but just don't leave it on for the full processing time. 10 minutes will do the trick. Also be sure to use a peroxide/processing solution that is no higher than 10 volume. Otherwise it lightens the hair. Hope that helps!

    This is reversed balayage that leaves buildup on roots in bands (which are very obvious on close up shots of her roots when she was doing the highlights). This video doesn’t show a real balayage technique 👎🏻

    I watched this whole video waiting to see how u did the balayage.. I guess I will still wait since all you did was weaved highlights to the top of your hair. Good call with the root smudge to cover the bleed marks.
