How to Start Applying Hair Color

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village my name is Elizebeth Muller from Liz's Hair Designs in Hollywood, Florida. Today we're showing you how to do color on relaxed hair. I take a good amount of color. As you see, I actually divide the hair by using the color itself. I go like this and put it on the new growth only. I'm getting a good amount in there, making sure she has a nice amount of color - good coverage. You want to go ahead and make sure you get all in that hairline where she's got the gray. If you're having difficulty with the gray coverage on the customer's hair you might want to do one or two things. Depends on the company that you use. With my company, I'm able to place her underneath the dryer for a few minutes with a plastic cap. I'm also able to put color first without using the developer and then putting the formula on with developer later. So it depends. She has a little difficulty, so we'll see. I may show you that I'm going to put it in a cap."
