Professional vs Home
coloring
Consult a true professional to guarantee the perfect hair color for your skin. Tired of looking at yourself in the mirror trying to figure out whether your skin undertones are pink or peach? Having some difficulty looking at the veins in your arms to determine whether your skin is cool or warm? A pro can take one look at your skin, eye color and natural hair, and tell you what hair colors would complement, rather than exacerbate, your undertones.
Professionals are licensed and trained in the chemistry of hair; science is a determining factor in your color experience. Just as doctor must be licensed in order to practice. Would you go to the cleaners for strep throat or ask a doctor for accounting help?
Pictures on the box can equal seeking a color correction. Pictures on hair color boxes can be deceiving; most boxes will call out the color (blonde, brown, black and red) and the shade of that color (light, medium and dark). These are the colors but depending on your natural color and knowing the science behind color formulation this can be a disastrous situation. Someone with Black hair cannot put a blonde shade on without turning orange. Professionals know the right processes that must be followed to achieve the desired out come or if it is a possibility. Many times home coloring ends up with undesirable results and the person seeking a professional to fix the unwanted shade or tone. This falls into a color correction. These are extremely costly.
Color corrections fall into four categories too light, too dark, too warm, or too drab.
Color corrections also are very costly and arise from at home coloring or communication gaps of desired results between a professional and yourself.
The science proves certain colors are not attainable depending on your natural shade.
