I remember doing a show long ago in Michigan. We were pre-dong models back stage.
One of the models was a very pretty women with long medium ash blonde (natural)
hair color. Our goal: Create a gorgeous red on this model.
I was working with super colorist, and Team Beth member Mark Mileti. We decided to
apply a no lift demi-creme copper red formula at level 5 to her root area. Then, we
immediately began wrapping selected strands of her hair into that same formula. So,
we were creating a red "root" area and LOTS of copper/red lowlights into her hair.
After 30 minutes, we rinsed the hair completely, towel dried and applied an acidic
liquid demi shade at level 8Copper to the entire head.. roots to ends. We covered
the hair with a plastic cap, and processed for 20 minutes. After rinsing, shampooing
conditioning and styling, this was THE KILLER GORGEOUS HEAD IN THE SHOW!
Magical moments of creativity, joy and success.... working with a wonderful team mate
who loved doing this as much as I did. I still use this technique..... and it WORKS!
