Lesson Comments
We got a late start due to Erin being on the road when notified class was changed to online and the necessary online class prep.
Overall this class was a natural conclusion to the past few months of classes surrounding corrective color. The entire natural, chemical, and maintenance journey has been assessed and a document of events and formulas was produced in class today. Bella now has a full perspective and understanding of what went wrong and how to get back and stay on track with her personal hair color goals.
Bella is now at a point she is ready to move on to other intro to cosmetology topics.

Lesson Comments
Bella has been grasping the processes and handling the extreme challenges and realities of hair color correction well.
The application of a 5 vol. H202 brown color solution canceled the light brown copper hair tones as desired.
The concentration of grey blue color using equal parts 5 vol H202 had some effect but did not cancel all undesired gold tones. More lightening is nessesary.
Discuss higher concentration of adding cool colors to cancel gold and copper tones in human hair
Prepare a mixture with 1/2 violet and 1/2 grey blue and equal parts H202
Apply the mixture using foil and brush to gold and copper hair in the Apex area.

Lesson Comments
The mixture of 1/2 violet and 1/2 grey blue and equal parts 5 vol. H202
was ultimately too weak to provide the desired tonality.
Next class we will eliminate the violet from the mixture
