All of us are presented with challenging color situations that require us to think on our feet and have confidence that the color we are using can do the job.
I recently found myself in a situation just like this. You see my wife had sent me a friend of hers that she thought would be a potentially good hair color model. I had asked if she had any color in her hair. I was told that she didn’t, and that it would be a simple highlighting procedure. You know where this is going… When she arrived I discovered she had about 2 inches of natural level five regrowth followed by a 3 inch band of level 6 copper/gold color that was created by a home hair color application. The last seven inches was old level four color that had been done in a salon. She felt like the old level four color was too dark (the level 6 copper was the result of her trying to lighten her color up) and she wanted some subtle highlights to brighten things up for the summer. She had pale blue eyes and the copper she had created was not flattering, however she saw lighter and brighter, her ultimate goal, so she didn’t mind it.
I wanted to solve this color challenge without turning this into a several hour or multiple appointment epic. I hope the solutions that I chose will serve as useful inspirations for your own color challenges.
