I don't know why I'm here, I'm a boat builder. But wow, you have done this a couple times.... amazing technique.

Pro tip: if your lightener swells too much add a few drops of tap water to your bleach mixture. You’ll never have bleed marks and swelling again

I usually do the Mohawk placement, but surprisingly I think I like the result of the fan pattern more

[janelambert]

Love learning different techniques have been in the business 50 years still learn something new every day

Woman.. This 👏🏽 is 👏🏽 the 👏🏽 best 👏🏽 video 👏🏽 ever 👏🏽 made!!! 😳

[imsodone]

Thank you for the education. We didn’t even learn how to do foils 35 years ago when I went to school. We pulled hair though a cap. This is so much better. I’ve seen this done at hair shows, but you did a really good job explaining the placement of the foils for the desired effects. Great job. I’ll have to get a mannequin to practice on.lol

I like these techniques but personally always do the opposite-foiling back to front (crown to front hairline) in mohawk sections & go from bottom to top on sides so once foils are in they stay put to prevent bleeding😁

my hairdresser has always done me the fan technique. I often tie my hair back and you could see the light colored stripes with a strong unnatural contrast. during the lock down I discovered the mowhawk technique, I did the bleaching by myself and the result is much more natural. I make very thin sections and I am fine!

[depeesify]

I think it would be much more helpful if you showed us the raw result before the final look. But this is great. Thank you for sharing this

[angelahagood]

I never even knew there was an alternate way of placing the foils! I love the finished look! I also loved the blond color, stunning! Thank you for sharing this technique with us!

[starmane]

I’m glad you said you shadow rooted them because every time I’ve tried the fan technique or any horizontal highlights even if they are super fine weaves and sections it looks crazy without a shadow root.

I’m in hair school and how Lo has broke down the two differences in the techniques makes more sense to me on the out come! Thank you! 🙃

[fatimaavila]

It’s always nice to see the results of different placement techniques 😌💕

[vickiweiss]

WOW... the FAN placement is beautiful 😍... thanks!!

[jtipan]

I love the information of differences and when to use. This is something I wanted to know and understand. Thank you

[killerkhristel]

I had several “ah-ha” moments with this! I love the results of both and can see how they would benefit needs for different clients! Thank you for sharing!

[rae]

I love the way you explained the difference between dimension and contrast. Thank you!

[irenesmith]
