Curly Girl Journey

So last week in school I did a color correction on my friend. She had a light brown root, orange midshaft, and golden blonde ends. See the before picture below:                                I applied a filler to the ends with demi-permanent hair color of 6B with water. She chose the 6B for the permanent hair color, so when choosing the filler you have to go with the matching shade or if need be one shade lighter. I applied the filler only to the ends to partial midshaft (where I noticed the lightness). After applying that, I blotted it with towels to make sure it was absorbed into the cuticle, and not dripping.

She was extremely happy and satisfied with the color.              ...

I had a girl come into my school who had a 2 inch regrowth of level 3 and then the hair shaft was what you see on the left, which since I use Goldwell in my school I matched it to 5NBP (5 Neutral Beige Pearl) or light brown reflecting opal. She wanted a flamboyage which is an ombré with a balayage. So the first step I did was for the regrowth I mixed 60mls of 20 volume and 60 mls of 5NBP (Goldwell uses a 1:1 ratio). I applied it to the regrowth area and let it process for 20 minutes. I then brought the color halfway down the shaft to refresh the color and let that process for about 10 minutes. After rinsing and washing the color away, I had to roughly dry the hair 80-90%. I took horizontal partings in the back and did subsections vertically where I lightly teased and applied BW2 lightener. Slowly as I got to the top most horizontal sections and I started to balayage higher and higher. I did the same thing as I got to the front, but I did diagonal partings toward the face since she wan...
