 Alright guys, so we're gonna start off today's video. We're gonna be using Paul Mitchell Blonde skylight with 40 volume plus olaplex We're gonna do a 16th of an ounce of olaplex will not dilute the formula What we're gonna be doing is I have my model grace and we're gonna be popping in some chestnut Highlights so my goal is not to get her super bright. So I'm gonna do a technique that's gonna be nice and subtle Very salon friendly techniques. So I think you guys will be able to use this right away on a lot of different guests We're gonna be doing some teas highlighting, but also some hand painting. So Paul Mitchell skylight has a nice smooth feel to it It's a clay-based lightener. So you get a smooth polish Definitely good coverage great lift. So we're gonna start off by painting Hand painting and like I said, we're gonna tease up the section. So as I work up the side What I wanted to do is not take it all the way to her base So I'm teasing the section and then I'm hand painting what's left basically mid shaft to ends Throughout there. So that's gonna give it more of a diffused look. That's what the teasing does I also don't like to tease the hair a ton Sometimes you'll see people really tease the hair up definitely not against that but for quickness in the salon This is more of a salon reality technique I just tease enough to give it that broken Broken up feel in the mid shaft and then I hand paint it to give it an even softer effect So just going through there soft teas. That's just to diffuse it a little bit Then I go through and hand paint the rest So basically what I've done is I've taken that rectangle off the top and everything underneath that basically from parietal ridge down is Going to be hand painted and teased Now I'm gonna do the same thing on the opposite side. So while we're working on this side I'm gonna talk about the product a little bit the Paul Mitchell skylight is a great clay-based lightener Those of you that are not currently using a hand painting lightener to do this kind of stuff You can attempt it with other lighteners But the great thing about a clay base to gives it a smoother application It also you use the clay to help incubate the section which will give you that lift So as a lot of other lighteners what they'll do is they'll go on the hair They'll dry up so they don't lift as much with a clay-based lightener It's gonna go on the hair it's gonna create kind of an outer shell around the hair shaft and Help incubate that lightener so that it doesn't stop working throughout it Okay, so now we're just finishing up that second panel again Don't do a lot of teasing if you do a ton of teasing you're gonna spend a lot of your time in the bowl Trying to get that teasing out it doesn't make that big of a difference because we're hand painting through it So even though I'm teasing a few times. I was about four times through it. I'm very softly pushing that hair up So now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take down. This is like the piece right at her part line So what I want to do with that piece is I want it to be a nice strong chestnut color a little bit brighter right around her face So I'm gonna take that little triangle out of the corner I'm gonna paint right to the scalp in the very front and then feather it back off Towards the back that'll give me that nice bright pop piece, which you'll see in the end result But you can see how it kind of fades back Now we're gonna work through the top like I said, this is a quick technique for in the salon This is not something that should take you a lot of time These are techniques that I really love doing because it has a maximum result with less Time in the chair, which is great for your guests because not everybody wants to spend hours in the chair But also not every guest wants to be completely transformed and blonde either Some people just want to have that little pop or that little bit of richness put in their hair And this is what the technique is gonna do for us. So we're working diagonal forward throughout the very top section So diagonal forward partings over directing everything back What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna work almost like a V shape with the lightener So what that means is I'm gonna come up a little bit higher on each end of the panel and then a little bit deeper through The middle so the middle is not gonna have as much lightener on it Which is gonna give me a more shadowed effect So now we're gonna continue on through the top section and I'm gonna continue doing the same thing So creating that V look to the highlights Maybe get a little bit brighter a little more saturation towards the front But you'll be able to see that V look so see that depth in the middle And then I paint everything else nice and high Towards the top just giving me a more shadowed effect It's almost like back in the when we would do a weave foiling which some of you guys might still do it This is an alternative to a weave foil a little bit more of a natural effect But it's just not painting all of the hair blonde allowing some of that shadowing to be in there So the last little bit I'm gonna paint this is her fringe area So this is really a key area and I'm gonna go much brighter on the very front So you'll see right through that center. I paint I'm gonna paint a lot of this section Completely throughout because that's gonna give me that brightness in the very front of her hair So that is our application the only thing I'm gonna do now is I'll go through the back And I'm gonna do a little bit of hand painting just to Add some light pieces to the back, but I don't want a lot of stripiness or anything like that So we're just gonna go through. I'm gonna take a horizontal panel I'm just gonna hold all over here at once and Basically paint some highlights on their freehand. So wherever I want to see that brightness happen That's where I'm gonna paint and I'll really work the product in so we talked about Saturation the more saturation you get the lighter your highlights are gonna be so in the very back here I'm not giving it as heavy of saturation because I don't want it to be as bright in the back You might see a little more product going on there, but it's also a lot bigger section But I am painting it to a much finer consistency. So it's not really incubating it as much So we won't get as much brightness So the cool thing about this video in when we talk about salon reality is the product that I'm gonna use at The end to create the chestnut color it's actually a product called color craft by Paul Mitchell And the cool thing about this product is it's a customizable conditioner and it has a professional purpose and also has a Take-home purpose as well. So We're gonna be using a couple different colors to customize this color for grace She wanted a chestnut feel to her highlights. There's our end result. You can see there She wanted that chestnut feel so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna add in two different colors I'm gonna mix them together. So there's two different ways to mix this product The first way is the professional way so we go in here And I add two of the tubes of the custom color treatment And then I'm gonna add about two pumps of each color to the bowl and mix it together The take-home version is that bigger tub of color craft Custom color treatment that you see over there. I'm gonna put a lot less pumps of the color But customize it mix it in there and then sell it as a take-home product that my customer can take home and Maintain their color craft at home. So they use it in the shower. So you have a much more diluted Customized version here and then you have your take-home version as well. So what I want to do is walk you guys through that application now So we're gonna start off. We're gonna rinse Grace's hair. We did put Olaplex in the formula That's our bond multiplier. So I need to finish that process. So I rinse her hair Tau dry it do not shampoo it I apply the step two and I'm gonna let that sit in her hair for about five to ten minutes Depending on the timing in the salon five minutes is fine That's gonna help multiply those bonds keep her hair from breaking and then after you leave that on for five to ten minutes You're gonna rinse it out once you rinse out the step two then you're gonna shampoo with whatever Shampoo you're looking to use for today's video. We use the ultimate color repair shampoo It's an anti-fade quinoa repair shampoo. So it's got lots of protein helps keep vibrancy and strengthen The hair so definitely a good choice and then we go in and we apply our custom color craft treatment So I'm gonna paint that from scalp to ends really heavily saturating the entire Hair because there's a lot of different benefits Not only is it gonna color the highlights that we put in but it's also gonna color the base and it's going to add Condition and shine to the hair check out the end result grace loved it You could see that brightness around the face that little piece that we painted and then just a little soft Movement in the very back. So hope you guys liked the video. Let me know in the comments below
