I dont have hair but one day hope my hair will grow back. I was having chemo and eventually the hair loss was so bad it was easier to get rid of it completely. Im in remission now and i noticed fine growth. I hope one day i can actually use a hair brush.

She is the best out there and I have watched many. And her talking is not annoying like other youtubers who do hair videos. She is awesome.

So I did this and it turned out great!!! Some key things..my natural color is a level 5/6 so dirty blonde..My ends were already very blonde from getting highlights over the years.

1. I bought 40vol processing solution, after researching I found that b/c I’m already a dirty blonde I would need 20vol processing solution. So I diluted my 40vol to make 20vol.. 1part distilled water to 1 part 40vol.

2. Thin sections when highlighting is key so you don’t end up with patches here and there.

3. I completely foiled and then let it process for 30-35min checking and pulling out foils that looked done. My hair is on the thick side so I had around 10-15 foils

4. I let my root tap process for about 10min and my toner process for 4-5min.
This was my first time ever doing my own hair and I was so hesitant but I practiced on some bottom sections a day or two before I did the top. I’m not a hairdresser at all and was scared but the results were so amazing!!

The root touch up portion alone was helpful :) she made handling the foils look easy, it takes a lot of practice ! Wow amazing !

I have 25 years as a color specialist. I have switched to Paul Mitchell color. I am fighting gold tones and gray coverage level 7 and up. SOOO FRUSTRATING. And, humbling. I have not used the 2 color lines you have mentioned. I am so grateful to have found your channel. You are a phenomenal teacher! I am hopeful for this formula and process. 🤞🤞🤞🤗
Thank you!

You inspired me to stop doing a full bleach retouch and do a more natural look. I now am going for a balyage with shadow root to let my hair get a rest.

I have been watching your videos for a while now and decided to leave a positive comment that will hopefully inspire others to try this at home. Because it works!

For reference, I’m a natural brunette with long voluminous hair. I had the balayage done a few years back and paid $350 to get my hair so damaged I had to do a long Bob.

Because of covid, not being able to go back to the salon, I found myself experimenting at home. First mistake I made, I tried henna. I KNOW!!! Trying to go down the healthy route, BUT, I’m past my 30’s with grays on my sideburns and dark tones just makes me look older. SO, I decided to gradually get rid of the henna by getting regular trims, doing clarifying shampoos and color correcting at the salon to get the green/blue tones off. As you all know, these color correction sessions can get very pricey.

Now that I only have 2-3 inches left of the henna (green/blue tones) left at the ends, I headed to a Sally store and bought “Quick Blue bleach by L’Oréal with 30 developer and did a few strands of baby lights, keeping a slide in between and weaving the second slide I bleached, not touching the roots at all, a couple in the back for when I pick up the hair, a few at the crown on both sides for parting in the middle, and a few up front diagonally for framing the face. I left it for about 30 minutes to get a light honey color. Washed the hair and blow dried the roots. I followed up with AGEbeautiful 7A with 20 developer for a root touch up, waited about 30 minutes and added Wella’s T18 mixed with the T27 and 20 developer to the entire hair and waited about 20 minutes then washed and did a deep conditioning treatment. I couldn’t be happier with the results! The colors blended beautifully, no brassiness on the root or mid shaft sections, and small amount of very pale bluish on the ends from the old henna. I let it air dry about 50% (to minimize damage) then gently blow dried and cut about an inch off.

I only spent $37 of product and still have bleach, toner and developer left!!!

Thank you for taking the time to do these videos, very educational and helpful!

Thank you so much for this video! I’m a stay at home mom and can’t afford to sit in a salon for 5 hours and dish out hundreds so I did this step by step last night with all the products you used and my hair turned out flawless! My husband said it’s the best it’s ever looked! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

I have been progressively moving towards gray since age 28. I’ve performed root color and highlights for years at home. This video helped me immensely! Always unsure about where to tone and how. Thank you so much! LOVE your videos!

I love the tones and dimension your blonde has! <3 The money piece and root tap looks SO good, too.

This was both stressful & relaxing to watch . I use to do my own weave, and I would feel so anxious. I don’t do it myself anymore . Kudos to you for the patience you have ! Looks beautiful.

Absolutely stunning! I love all the colors intermingling... it's hard to tel where one color starts and ends. To me, that's the sign of a phenomenal color stylist!

Ellebangs, you have inspired me and I have begun to do this! At first, I was so scared that my hands were fumbling all over the place. But after the second and third time, it has gotten easier. Thank you so much! I'm a fan!

I just want to say thank you!! These videos are the best and I could never get my hair the way I truly wanted it at a salon! Now, not only is it cheaper bc I just get a cut, I love my hair ❤️❤️

This is literally the only video I found where someone does permanent colour on the roots + highlights … I have really dark roots naturally and it’s so hard to find a technique online since everyone just does root smudges with semi permanent dye which never lightens my roots so there’s always a contrast between the blonde and my root colour. Thanks for sharing this video and this method. ❤️❤️🙏🏼

You are my hero! How on earth do you do your own highlights? I know I saw you do it, but I am still AMAZED! You are just lovely and so talented!
