Study Notes
Double-Process Haircoloring
- Involves two distinct steps to achieve the desired hair color.
Lighteners
- Created to establish a lighter color foundation than the client's natural hair color.
- Can serve as a finished result or a preliminary step in a double-process application.
- Key considerations for achieving the desired lightness:
- Existing hair color
- Processing and development time
- Resulting porosity of the hair
- Selection of the desired color
Applications of Hair Lighteners
- Lighteners can be used to:
- Lighten the entire head or specific sections of hair.
- Achieve a targeted shade or stage of lightness.
- Brighten or enhance an existing shade.
- Remove unwanted tones or casts.
- Correct dark spots or streaks in previously lightened hair.
Selection of Lighteners
- Follow manufacturer's directions along with these general guidelines:
-
Cream Lighteners:
- Suitable for on-scalp applications (virgin or retouch services).
- Provide some hair protection and control during application.
- Help neutralize unwanted red and gold tones.
- Can incorporate up to three activators for on-scalp use and four for off-scalp processes.
-
Powder Lighteners:
- Strong enough for multiple stages of lightening.
- Caution required; often not suitable for direct scalp application.
-
Oil Lighteners:
- Mildest option, ideal for achieving one or two levels of lift.
-
Cream Lighteners:
Lightener Retouch
- Refers to applying lightener solely to new hair growth for color matching.
- Use the client's record card to guide:
- Previously used lightener type.
- Required processing time for achieving the desired lightness.
