what hair color fillers are & how to use them.
*key points:
•a color filler is needed if you are going 3 or more levels darker
•a color filler adds back in missing pigment to the hair (usually the pigment that is lost when bleaching)
•you have to have all three primaries present when coloring hair (red, blue, and yellow)
•yellow = blondes, red= medium browns, blue= darker colors/ blacks
•if you color your hair darker- going from blonde (YELLOW) to black (BLUE) you will be missing the middle primary (RED). You would use a red filler to avoid getting the opposite color of red-green.
•to fill hair:
color the hair red (I used 7RR demi permanent color + 10 volume) let it process, shampoo and condition, blow dry, or towel dry.
apply your desired color over the red (I used 4NN liquid permanent color + 10 volume), let it process, shampoo and condition.
if your hair still has too much red in it, you can apply the desired color again- let it process, shampoo and condition.
