Study Notes
The Level System
- The Level System evaluates hair color on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 represents the darkest shade (black) and 10 the lightest (blond).
- This system aids in identifying the lightness and darkness of hair colors for formulation, matching, and correction purposes.
Saturation
- Saturation refers to the intensity or concentration of pigment in color, influencing its vividness.
- A highly saturated color produces a more dramatic effect on hair transformation.
Base Color
- Base colors are derived from primary and secondary colors, forming the predominant tone of hair color products.
- Violet base colors neutralize yellow tones; blue base colors counteract orange tones; red-orange base colors create warm highlights; neutral base colors balance overall tones.
Identifying Natural Level and Tone
- Understanding the client’s natural hair color is crucial to selecting suitable artificial hair colors and predicting final results.
- Natural level is identified using a manufacturer’s swatch or color ring for accurate matching.
Artificial Hair Color
- Artificial haircolor refers to non-natural coloring agents that alter hair color.
Hair Color - Natural Hair
