this has been by far the most helpful DIY hair videos i've seen on youtube. thank you!!
One stylist to another- awesome video! You explain things so well. I would love to see more tutorials from you!
Thank you!
I agree! Loved how thorough you are.
I finally got tired of my hairstylists crap and am never going back so I’m trying to resist the temptation to do this 😂 I would never but it’s tempting
Thank you for being so thorough and informative.....you speak in layman terms that makes it so easy for anyone wanting to learn about hair!! Thank you for explaining why you create the formulas the way that you do, it makes so much sense. Not a lot of people explain their formulas as thoroughly as you do. I understand it way better now. Please keep up the great work! I love watching your videos....can’t wait for more! Definitely following...🥰🥰🥰🥰
I lived with my best friend who was a hair stylist for years and I learned a lot from watching her bleach my hair every couple weeks at our home, but the pandemic separated us for months SO I found this video and used this method while FaceTiming her and IT TURNED OUT AMAZING! The only difference is that I teased down the roots since I wasn’t doing a root shadow, for my first time bleaching my hair by myself I was so proud. Thank you!!!
loved this!!!!! I look forward to your videos so much! 💕
Sooooo I just did the mohawk crown part of this method (I'm doing the sides tomorrow on my day off) and OMG Sam thannnnkkkkk you! What a great method I've tried so many diff approaches! This looks amaze I'm excited to do the sides and demi permanent color tomorrow 💖
I’m loving your blouse and makeup with your new haircolor..great video❤️🙋🏻♀️
Perfect timing! I’m in so need of this
I would never try this at home lol but it was fun to watch!!! Plus, I actually have questions because I have shadow root as well and I'm looking to have a professional tone the part of my hair that has dye. It was interesting to see and have you explain why you used a toner on your shadow root!
Your voice is so soothing 😭😭
New subscriber! Great video👍 I am a stylist and do my own hair a lot !!this video was helpful ❤️you’re a great natural teacher
it looks so good!
I tried this technique! My balayage came out great!!!! Thank you!
I love your tutorials!!!!
❤️ Love this style and color on you!❤️
I absolutely love your channel!! I just enrolled in salon school this morning!! 🥰
Thank you! That's so exciting! Good luck!
OMG LOVE THIS 🙌🏻
You are awesome! So happy I found these videos. Thank you for posting!
I think you should do a video series reacting to the before and afters that you do in the salon you work at. Like a “hair stylist reacts to my own before and afters”
it turned out it really nice!
The finished look is gorgeous!!! This video was very helpful!
Obsessed with your brows 😍
I love your partings
im pretty confident I can pull this off. I cant go to a professionnal for a while because of the pandemic and my health issues and I want to do a little touch up at home. Thanks for the tips!
Did you do it? How did it go?
Hi Sam, if I'm unable to find Redken for the root shadowing and for the tips. Can I use Wella and what numbers? Thanks in advance
Just love how you teach, thank you from your diy follower 😀
When you do the shadow root is it covering grays? Doenst it go ruin the bayalage?
Ok now we need a tutorial on how you styled your hair at the end
I have one on my IGTV! But I can do one on here too. :)
Sam Vay oh did you do the curling iron method that you showed on the mannequin? I didn’t realize it would work so well with short hair, too! 😃😃😃 my hair is at the awkward hit-my-shoulders-and-flip-everywhere stage so it’s about time for a chop chop.
Allison Wilson if your hair is shoulder length, that technique would definitely work! But I have another one from a few months ago that I demonstrate on myself where I use a flat iron! That’s what I did in this video :)
Is it the same process if I wanted to do the back myself?
Brilliant video.Thank you sooo much! xxx
my stylist used foam for my balayage...is there a difference between foam and foil?
You mentioned towards the end that you thought about giving yourself a trim (obv before your co worker done it) just wondering if you have a video on how you would do it on yourself?
Do these toners cover grays at the root?
Yesss this is what I needed thank you for the demonstration I’m gonna attempt mine now
If I do a shadow root will that cover the gray hair at the root
thank you, great video! I'd love to see more ! (I do my own highlights, but am not a hairdresser)
How do you know what volume will match your current bleached hair? I want to touch up my balayage myself but idk how to make sure it matches my current blonde
@@adrianatate5061 I dont, if I feel my ends ar not light enough, I will apply a milder mixture : bleach which goes only up to 6 or 7 levels, with 7 volume developper, a bondbuilder (I use B3 BrazilianBondbuilder), and mix up to 1 for 2.5 or even 3; I don't do that if ends are light enough, but when I pull out the foils I will pull the bleach down ; only if needed, I will quickly apply a bit of fresh bleach with bond protector to brighten the ends just before rincing (it only stays on 5 or 10 minutes), to ensure the blonde is even. Hope it helps.
If we can't find 7N, what is the next closest shade?
Love it
I love your brows this shape
Do you have a video on how to do the back ?
Hiya, I have balyage and just want to touch up the bits at the front and maybe make them a bit thicker. How do i make sure the new bleached bits go the same colour as the old bits? x
My question exactly
I’m so going to try this!
Please don't at home lol. She's a professional, if you aren't don't.
Do it! Don’t listen to what that girl says lollll
Where can I buy redken toners?
Thanks for the tips on the volume of the developers. I got the 30. Wished the clerk would’ve told me the difference so I can go with 20 for beginners like me. 30 might be too risky then.
gorgeous
Question. Will it work if I use the Wella lightning powder on previous demi colored hair?
Yes
Super cute! Have you tried adding a 9p to your formula? I think that would look good in you!
Thanks! My hair isn't light enough for a 9
Question for u!! So I had brown hair with highlights and I dyed my hair with L’Oréal hi color and I mixed magenta and red and got the magenta color I want to go back blonde what’s the best way to do so ? Before I went brown I had the perfect platinum hair
Go to a salon
Sam Vay I usually always do my hair salons cjarge way to much
Thank you 😊
Hello, just found your page, and have seen a couple videos so far! I really like them, very informative. Now, I plan on retouching my balayage at home. I do have my cosmetology license but haven’t practiced in 10 years.. can you please tell me where can I buy the redken shades eq? I just looked online and found it in Walmart, but I know they overprice certain items (ie. Olaplex) Is there a page for license cosmetologist to get it for a better price? I checked cosmoprof but they don’t carry this in their store.
nenaperuanita salon centric carries it!
@@styledbysamvay thank you!
videos doing your friends hair!
What is a shadow root
Are you kidding me?! Of course you can foil your hair yourself, is there anything you can’t do, you Wonder Woman! I could barely touch up my own outgrowth 😂
Your hair always looks stunning!
I also need hair help. My hair is an unatural color (as you can see in my picture) and my roots are grown out a little. I want to go for a natural color. If I go to a salon, would I be able to go for something like a balayage? Would it be a difficult process?
Thank you! It depends how easily that color will come out. You'll have to remove it before doing anything lighter.
I have a question . When you do highlights , do you place the lightner on the roots ? 🤔 Because I know I heard you said you wanted to keep the roots black but I'm just wondering . Thank you 🙂😊
Not all the way up, no.
Why did you slice the money piece since you bleached all of it? Couldnt you just saturate the whole piece?
You could, but you’ll get the best and most even lift when you take thinner partings at a time.
@@styledbysamvay i see, thank you for answering!
Damon girl 😆 you are good ! Those arms go to hurt 😢
And the back?
you lool gorgeous ;) short hair suits you
I'm going to get a balayage done Monday, at first when I contacted the salon they were like "yeah, we have one hairdresser who does it". Then when I made the appointment they made it sound like she have only done it a handful of times.... Now I'm tempted to cancel the appointment
Maja Jensen yeah that doesn’t sound too good. I would cancel ASAP and go to a place where the stylists specialize in it.
@@styledbysamvay thank you for your input! I cancelled the appointment and found someone who mostly does balayage. It's almost 100 $ more but at least it will be done right. 😄
Bellisima
I can feel the pain in your arms lmao
I wonder if I could break this up into two different nights if I did this at home lol, my arms could not handle this in one sesh
It's called a classic bob
Can I ask what the benefit of posting a diy tutorial is as a professional? I’m personally mentally exhausted with color corrections. I’m sincerely not trying to hate, I’m just confused.
If people want to do their own hair at home, they're going to do it regardless. May as well show the correct way to do it. Plus, if it weren't for me messing with my own hair when I was younger, I wouldn't have discovered my love for hair color. And color corrections make you a lot of money, so what are you complaining about!!???! Lol ;)
Also I am a professional hairstylist as well but love to see how my other fellow hair stylists do their hair at home! I’m always looking for different techniques when doing my own hair at home :)
Sam Vay not complaining haha, I just prefer to not start with a disaster 😂 also soooo over explaining to people that it’s not my fault that they screwed up their hair, and that I have to charge accordingly. Oof.
No I totally get that!!! Same here.
I am confused when I hear Caution on Hair bleach, it will dry or damage the hair at least a little, whether you put it in my hair or I do.
Common sense goes along way,
I actually love hair bleach especially on new growth hair it lightens so pretty makes it shiny and give my hair a bit of volume,
I have been doing my own highlights for awhile now.
I have tried many different techniques.
Honestly it doesn’t have to be this involved and time consuming, I have found just paint it on, working with two maybe three big sections. no teasing, no foils....
this is way to technical.
It absolutely doesn’t have to be this time consuming at all.
Also 10v will do close to nothing.
Also toner is a joke. It’s not needed
If you have to tone to get it looking right you didn’t bleach it enough... hence 10v sux.
Sorry, I don't trust these videos where we don't see the finished product until 2-3 days later. That's cheating.
Lmao there is no cheating... I promise those are the real results that I got. I just knew that I wanted a haircut afterwards, so I didn't want to waste the time to blowdry and style it right away. I have tons of other similar tutorials where I do share the results immediately after. :)
@@styledbysamvay Oh good. Okay, thanks for clearing that up for me.
Your hair is way to short for your face shape
