This is the best video ever! I been looking for a video like this 😍i finally found you
Can you tell me what colour your base is
Can you please suggest any other brand then redken. It is not available in my country
Lol right! This is nearly impossible. 😂😩
You had previously posted your root touch up formula. I cannot find it was it a 6nn and a 7?
She’s the only hair stylist who shows us how to do our hair on our own without going to a stylist
spitonmebeckbennett How dit iT get So pretty without A toner?
@@et5021 She did tone with gloss, level 6N
Mary Liesenberg I don’t think so she just did a root tap/ smudge the roots
I think that means she knows her clients will keep going to her.
We need to keep her! She’s a precious gem!
“Even an inexperienced person could attempt to do this” ... y’all, quarantine me is about to become a hairdresser
In lockdown UK & my grey roots are growing fast! Wish i could try this myself but wudnt hav a clue where to start even color matching!! 🙄🤨
MEEE
Yessir
Same sis! Lol
SAME. Oh gah I'm scared. So Clara.... Did you try it?! Did it work?!
For people who can't weave fast/haven't done this before, might be smarter to use a 20 volume and leave it to process longer. 40 vol could fry your hair if you leave it on too long.
I'm honestly shocked she not only used 40 on her already-very-light hair, but that she's actually telling people to use 40 at home! I would never use 40 on myself, so dangerous if you don't know *exactly* what you're doing!! (Of course she looks amazing though lol)
I did this today and it turned out perfect! I used 20 volume developer because my natural base is a 6-7. Silvia is using 40 volume because her natural level is very dark. Use whatever volume developer you need for your natural hair level. This is by far the best highlight tutorial on TH-cam. Thank you 😊
Did you use the redken flash lift?
@@spidersunset no I used Blondor. It's a great bleach that doesn't go yellow
Hi! I’m not experienced at all but i want to try it. Do you think id be able to? Was it easy enough for you?
@@spidersunset How long did you leave the blondor on?
@@team2mom805 agreed! How long did you let it process?
My first attempt months ago turned out pretty chunky, but that's because I was impatient. I tried it again last night and the key really is to bleach the teeny tiniest strands of hair and just take your time. It honestly looks amazing, I'm so in love with my hair now!
Did you do the root tap like she did? What exactly is that?
@@jenniferrobinson1006a root tap is basically using a darker toner for example 6n Redken toner and just tapping it along the root so it’s not a harsh line from root to bleach blonde
I've literally been watching you for years and years, you've taught me so much in these 5-6 years or more!
I used this method in quarantine and my hair turned out SO GOOD. Thank you so much!
Where did you purchase Root formula? :)
Did you already have your hair super blonde like hers? Wondering if the developer level will be good for me
@@rebeccagaribay2002 I used 20 vol because my natural hair is a lot lighter/finer than hers.
Where did you get the Red Ken products ?
@@ArielleVicMaxim you can get them on walmart
Been watching you for years. I now do my own hair like a pro, using store-bought products! Everyone asks who does my hair and can't believe when I say I do! Thanks, Silvia, you are epic. Congrats on your pregnancy :) xoxo
I went to cosmetology school AND worked as an assistant but still felt clueless with color. I ended up just cutting/styling hair and I’ve learned more from your channel than I have in years. I used your tips on my own naturally black hair and I’m on my way to blonde and feel confident now in implementing color into my career. Thanks for sharing and going into detail, your channel has saved me!!
Everyone is asking about why I didn't tone the babylights and only did a root smudge. Just want to clarify that didnt incafet tone my hair off camera and here is why. When I weave such thin babylights and use 40 vol Redken Flash lift lightner (which is already blue to neutralize some warmth) my babylights rarely have to get toned. However if you want to know what toner I use for my blonde all over, you can check out my root touch up video. Where I show you how to touch and refresh your hair. If I were to tone my babylights thats the toner formula I would use.
Sylvia I cannot find the Redken, where do you suggest getting it from?
@@txangelfeathers I know I want to get the real Redken Shades EQ too. I wish Sylvia would sell it as I trust her.
If we cannot buy these products then do a video using the products that we as consumers can buy!
What color is your base.
Do my hair😂😂😂
tried this and now I look like one of Joe exotics tigers
Same, did this last year..then i panicked and went dark brown. 🤦♀️
I find it easier with the rubber cap. Works fine
Same sis, same
That's exactly whar I want
Love that 😭😂
I am a colorist to my Core! I love that you do your own, as I do having breakage from ( another stylist) once I went to total light blonde, I said never again, I’d already been foiling my own for years-so once again I did my own. I get exactly what I want and prevent any further damage👍😁 thanks for the video, just super cool that you do your own. I feel like you wear your passion!
Easy DIY babylights- beautiful and perfect
Me: (orange patchy hair) nailed it!
DeeGeeDoll you tried it?
#metoooooo
DeeGeeDoll how of your not satisfied and want yo re do n toning?
That orange made go crazy so i bleached twice 1st bleach with 30 and the second with 20 and fried the ends and didn’t even get it to level 8
toner is a must!
Honestly you are so amazing, you’re the only hairstylist making videos that help people who do their hair at home, without any judgement. I recently found a hairstylist on TH-cam who was so talented but made really snarky comments about people who do their hair at home and I just ended up unsubbing. I’ve been watching your videos for years and you are so skilled and a genuinely lovely person, keep up the great work 👐🏻
Eu também ensino Monique
I’ve thought about making more videos education based for people at home not exactly like hers but don’t know if I can handle mean people lol
Michaela you’ll be fine, people don’t hassle you too much. It’ll be really good having more education available for people at home. And its the perfect time to start a channel since so many people are still at home because of the pandemic, great way to grow a channel
Girl, you do a much better job than most hair stylist. I’m so glad I saw this video thank you.
She sure is!! That's because she is a Redken ambassador and a professional hairstylist. She does a great job!! 😊
I’m a heavy highlighted blonde and learned soooo much watching your videos! Thanks for sharing your knowledge ❤️
Thank you, Silvia!! This video LOADED with helpful info, like how often you color and whether it’s the base or the lightened hair. Especially appreciate your placement and formula advice! Your finger is always on the pulse of the most desired haircolors and you share so generously, thank you again! From your videos I now cut and color my own hair getting the unique look I could get from no one else no matter how many hairdressers I went to and no matter what pictures and words I used to explain what I wanted. You’re funny, kind, generous and so talented - love you right back, sweet, beautiful lady!!
Your words are so lovely! I totally agree with you 100%. Every time I change or to-do my hair, I always go to Elle for a little re-cap and she is wonderful and her advice so informative 😊
Your hair is absolute goals! I just love you :) your gorgeous, and I love how kind you are sharing all your secrets and tips. I went to hairdressing school but it was 20 years ago, I haven`t practised it for years. Thanks to you Sylvia, I am learning again. Thanks lovely.
I finally worked up the courage to try this after watching numerous times to make sure Id get it right.. thank you for posting the tutorial, I would have never had the guts to try this without it!! It was/ is very cool of you to share these tutorials with us💕 💕 I will continue to follow and share with others THANK YOU!🙏🏻
This is the best your hair has ever looked IMO. Great tutorial, I’ve tried it a few times now and it turned out great. Thank you!
I am a designer well versed in colour theory and qualified aromatherapist too, so used to % ratios. I decided to do my research and give this a go in lockdown. I followed your tutorial using Wella blondor followed by the shades EQ 6N, with a root tap but I pulled it through after 10 minutes and washed off at 17 minutes. I am ecstatic with the result, the 6N totally made it, don’t know why I’ve not found you before lockdown! Thank you! The only thing I’d revise personally for me as a newbie t-section highlighter is using a lower developer at the start on side hairline as I am slow getting them in! And the back of crown is really tricky on your own! Thank you again for sharing your videos.
You inspire me and give me the confidence I need to tackle the things that make me second guess myself when I'm behind the chair. Thank you for being such a great mentor to your fans. xo
Thank you so much for your videos! I just finished doing mine with a few extra foils and LOVE how it came out! 😘
A million thank you’s for this video!! I’m so picky with my hair and I’m 90% unhappy with how stylists have done my hair in the past. $200 for each appointment with not getting exactly what I want has been so frustrating. I can’t wait to try it for myself. I’ve been wanting to do my own hair for years and you and I have the same natural hair color, so this is perfect. Can’t wait to provide an update with how it goes. Thank you so much!! Xo
You can do it, just lay everything out, make sure you give yourself lots of time for technique and ban distractions. I do my own because of the same reasons you mentioned.
What’s the level of your natural hair color ?
Me too I never get the color I want
Sallyy not sure... Just looking at her natural roots, mine appear to be the same.
Mirian Agundiz i occasionally get the color I want (very rare), but it’s never consistent. That’s something I don’t understand. The same stylist should be able to accomplish the same thing every time. Do they just forget what they did last time? Do they not care about doing a good job? it’s so frustrating :(
Thank you so much for this wonderful video! Just before quarentine, I paid $350 to a professional stylist who ended up literally melting 8 inches of my hair off so Im doing my own hair for a fraction of the cost thanks to you 💞🌸💞
I followed exactly what you said, but I did use a different color for the root smudge and my hair turned out the most perfect blonde I’ve been trying to achieve for a decade. It cost me $50 vs. $300 at a salon!!!! God bless you!! Thank you for doing what you do and helping us mommys on a budget!!! ♥️♥️♥️
I followed this tutorial about a month into quarantine (back in April) and it worked beautifully! Thanks so much ❤️

Hi Lydia! Would you mind sharing where you got the Redken Shades EQ gloss/toner?
You’re so talented! Thanks for sharing !
Absolutely love this... I've been increasing upset in recent years after my colorist passed away at a young age, as well as the "world event" of 2020 that occured... both incidents have resulted in not having the option to get new highlights in my hair. Recently I've considered learning how to do my own and am confident in my ability to do so, and this was such an excellent guide. Thank you so much for providing this as an option and resource for me! Once I reach a point that I wish to proceed, I will undoubtedly be reviewing this again!
😊❤👍
So easy!! Looks likes I came straight out the salon. Cannot thank you enough for this video!!
You are truly wonderful as I have never watched a video where someone has made it so easy showing me how to do my highlights. I can not begin to thank you enough. Thank you one million times!
A big thank you for this video!! Although I wasn't as graceful as you, I'm super happy with the end result on my first try! Also many thanks for showing how to do the back of the head yourself. I used Loreal Feria Very Platinum and didn't have my usual brassiness issue.
Absolutely beautiful, Sylvia!! You did a great job!! ❤
I tried this, only had box die but used this technique and I’m super happy. Thankyou!!
Elle you have been my savior for some years now and here again I'm done spending 200 . You are the best girl !! Bless your heart thank you!!
Wow! You are just beyond amazing. Thank you for blessing us with your knowledge. I am a licensed hairstylist, I have chosen to no longer do hair anymore and I love what you teach. I will be using your techniques on myself and my gratitude for you is beyond word. God bless you, sweet lady!
Stunning ! I wish I could my hair like this 🙌🏽
Just a huge thank you. I did my root color and highlights on myself as a stylist I never have anyone to do my highlights bcus everyone is so busy. I did do my root color and then went through and weaved it I did do a lil tease on the weaved sections then I toned with redken. My hair looks the best it has in so long. Thank you so so so much 🙌 ps ur beautiful and congrats on ur baby 🍼 I also did a curtain bang wish I could post a pic on here. Thank u again.
So glad I found this video again. My quarantine hombre...quarantombre, if you will...is getting on my nerves and stylists are just bombarded since the reopening here in GA. Thank you so much for your informative and easy to follow tutorials!
Awesome video. I love that you share all your knowledge. I had never seen a woman do her own highlights. That’s pretty amazing. And you’re an excellent teacher!! 😘😘
This is exactly what I was looking for ♥️😭🙏🏼👏
im a graduate from paul mitchell the school, and i barely learned anything in hair school because the teachers at my school never explained anything right, and they were never on the same page. But ever since I been watching your vids ive learned so much, im so happy i found your channel!!!
I watched a few hours of your hair tutorials and information and wanted to say thank you! I did my own hair for the very first time and it looks awesome! I seriously like it just as good if not better than going to the salon. I just moved to a new area and so I was having a hard time finding a new stylist after moving out of state.
Your hair looks gorgeous!!, and Olive is such a sweet and beautiful dog. Even though I'm not a blonde I enjoyed this video.👍❤😊🐶❤
Yay, the holy grail of hair color that we've all been waiting on... BABYLIGHTS
Jose Martinez sir what is your problem... why are you so bothered that we don’t want to pay $200 every month for hair
You have the best and safest going and keeping blonde channel ! Thankyou!
I just tried this and it worked beautifully! I’m so happy:) thank you!❤️
I've used your method a few times now and honestly it comes out great every time. You are the baby lights Queen!
Hello Sherri, can you tell me please have you used also Redken 06N ? Moroccan Sand seems to be a dark colour…
@@lllannarolll I actually use the lightest blonde L’Oréal offers and then go over it with a purple conditioner,comes out lovely🙂
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!! I can do my roots now! Lol
For the next video can you show how you do both the baby lights and the 6NA? Thank you so much Silvia! This video was so helpful!!!
WOW I can’t Belive this girl does her own hair!!! You give us all inspiration! You go girl!!! 😀🥰
Thank you! I did this today and it turned out great! The key is to look at your own hair colour to see how it is developing, dont take the foils out too early or it will be orange!
Thank you so much for sharing. You make it look effortless and your hair is absolutely gorgeous. ❤️❤️❤️
I continue to follow and watch because she is such an authentic person and just lays it out for us to give it a try. Good person!
"I love Portugal" OMG :D Kisses from a subscriber from Portugal!
Today I did my hair and I loved it, I love the way you explain the whole process, thank you very much, beautiful❤
My formula for the Root Tap is a little different, but the Babylights were done exactly the same. BEAUTIFUL results.
Awesome video ! Love how this turned out! You are gorgeous girl! 💕
Beautiful results. Thank you. Your dog is pretty special too!
I just love Olive!
I admire her for trying to help and teach us- I just want to say that these girls have a certain humility about them and take for granted the fact that this ability to do this is a gift and a God given talent & calling. They answered the call and have worked to develop the skill but not everyone has this gift. I realized that when I tried to start teaching astrology to beginners. I realized it’s a unique calling and my purpose. I still try to teach it regardless because it matters to me.
I just wanted to say this to this content creator because it’s a gift.
Its such a pleasure to watch a beautiful, smart, skillful master and humble worker!
Holy freaking moly, the results are so beautiful!!! 😍 This might be my favorite look of all on you and I appreciate how well you explained everything. Thank you so much for this!
Hi Jamie, where did you find the supplies?
omg she makes it look so easy!! I really wanna try this but don’t wanna mess up my hair 😭
Great job, I like the fact that you get to the point in demonstrating the process, I can tell you are a true professional. Thank you
I’m in Cosmetology school. I need to do this. I highlighted my hair myself splitting back in two sections, using the back combing method. It looks great. I did put in a few highlights on top with a face frame. But need more highlights on top and crown area. Going to try! Great video!
My goodness you make that look so easy 🤩 I really want to attempt this! Thanks for making these types of videos Silvia, they are so helpful! 💜
I tried it. Just did tiny parts and worked well. Will try more foils the next time. Just needed over an hour for 10 foils, haha. Can recommend to check the process in between + I started to clean some parts with a towel until the last parts were lifted as well. Lots of love from Germany
Tina, where did you buy root formula?:) I can’t find anything online
@@liliiakhamzina3458 I could not find the redken lifting formular as well, so I bought Wella Blondor Freelights Powder + 12% Developer cream. How to mix is written on the bottles (I m doing it 1:1,5, which means 1 amount of powder + 1,5 amount of cream). I bought everything on www.hagelshop.de. I m using shades eq 09p gloss afterwards and this combination is the best blonde I ve ever had:)
You are so good at choosing flattering shades of makeup!!! The sweater, makeup and hair at the end are everything!!! So pretty!! I’d love to see more makeup videos, more specifically how to choose shades to compliment skin tone, etc!!! Ty for being YOu🥰😍🤩
Looks great! I like how natural it seems and is. I’m a natural red head and thinking of doing something like this tonight. A little less colour though and more towards the tips. Thank you for the great tutorial video! 😙
Thanks so much! Attempting this technique on natural curly hair 😊😊
Falcon Griffith how’d it go?!!!
I’m a curly hair girl as well and I find it very difficult (impossible) to foil my own hair. I’m sticking to balayage diy techniques due to the curls & massive thickness of my big hair...unfortunately will take a while longer to get the lift I’m seeking without foil. I’m definitely interested to hear how it went for you!
You’re gorgeous! You’re hair is beautiful, thanks for sharing!
Honestly the best tutorial for babylights ever!!!! Thank you !!!
im so excited, I'm going to do this and alternate with the other root and tone video. super excited!
Wow just wow, you done so good. I would have never thought to take that little of hair and do it that way, no wonder I always end up with more chunks of light lol.
Looks great x
You are an excellent teacher! Your videos are easy to follow and the results I've had are fabulous. I wish I could include a pic because my babylights turned out beautifully! Thank you for taking the time to put these videos together!
Hi Kylea! Would you mind sharing where you got the Redken Shades EQ gloss/toner?
@@kathemorick9203probably at salon centric or cosmo prof
This is an amazing tutorial, explained so well, thanks!! I went to school at Aveda and you’re better than some of the teachers lol
I have tried it and it is the best result I have ever achieved❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This video made me think I can do it.
Great video.
I’ve been waiting so long for this video!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I’ve started “babylighting” myself but love pointers from you. I’ve been doing this with a 10 volume developer to keep my hair as healthy as possible.
You are amazing! I love your hair color. It’s my dream hair color, which no hairdresser can achieve in my area!
Thank you. I'm astounded this actually worked out and my hair looks great
She makes it look so easy
I tried this on licensed in hair myself about 2 years but have not been able to work due to the pandemic and that’s usually how I get my hair done is by someone I work with but I was just getting so bored with my color and needed a guide to even be able to do it on my own head instead of another person I would say this is one of the most helpful videos even for someone who can’t do hair I did it slightly different than her but mine came out so good I was surprised one thing I would say is to not use 40 volume developer at home
Wow! The best highlights I ever seen! You are truly talented!
Hairstylist here, I think you did a great job on that tutorial! Gorgeous lived in color. Love it! Thanks
I just did this and it turned out great! So very happy. I used 40 volume developer with a smidge of Olaplex 3 and no issues. I ended up processing my babylights for about 40 minutes instead of 25 as I am a level 9/10 in my balyage. Just checked every 10 minutes after 25 minutes passed. For the shadowroot, I added in coming gently down with a regular tooth comb to prevent any harsh lines 🤗
What color would you recommend for a shadow root I can’t find the redken she used?
Sempre adorei os teus vídeos Silvia! Faz um vídeo em português 😘
Thanks very much, for taking the time to demo the sectioning/foiling baby lights. Especially the back. Especially appreciated your list of the Redken supplies. Although my hair color natural base is med brown, level 5/6, and quickly shifts to orange, your approach and tutorial will help me work through that. Especially with using a 40 vol developer, I can 'bump' the lights, through that awkward "orange' level, & through to blond-er. Thanks again. I subscribed.
My new FAVORITE!! Cant wait to do mine next!!
I did this with 20 volume (my base is a little lighter, between 5/6) and it turned out great. I didn't even have to do the root tap. Just bleach and purple shampoo. Thank you for this tutorial!
Hi! Are you a natural dark blonde, by chance? I'm looking to try this video, but have lighter hair and wonder if/how I should adjust anything. Thanks so much!
@@JennaKemp21 I think light brown is my natural hair color description. I would do a strand test, maybe you need a 15 volume.
Your hair looks gorgeous and your Dog is adorable. Great instruction. Would love to see a video on colouring/ blonding greying dark hair.
อาทิตย์
That’s what I have. I always start with my base single process color then a few weeks later go in with the highlights or.... some said attempt at highlights LOL
Just stumbled on this and I'm so grateful!!🙏🏻 Thank you!
I got great results from this! Thanks girl 😘
Great tutorial and I love your set up! Your pup is gorgeous and you're so beautiful, love you lady 💕💕
i love the techniaue and results!!
What do you think about using coconut oil before coloring or bleaching? Thanks
This is exactly the video I’ve been looking for. Now I have to watch your root touch up because I have dark blonde hair that I used to get partial highlights on, but I was never really happy with the results, and it was expensive, so I have about 6” of dark blonde roots!
Silvia I've been following for a long time now, even though I couldn't be able to do it with foils , I use the rubber cap for my security . Totally fredom doing my hair by myself . Thank you for sharing and showing us the process . 🇧🇷
You make it look easy, but I’m sure it’s not.
I love her for posting videos like this. I'm not a professional but I this on myself at home. I have similar results. Sometimes I'll see a professional for a full head of highlights and spend 3 hrs at the salon maybe every 6 months to a year, but doing these mini touchups helps me keeping my hair looking its best and saves me time and money. Also, professionals are grateful I do it right so it makes their jobs easier as well.
it is her work so it LOOK effortless ... but give it a try ...i ruined my bangs O_o
April Dunn i have try It - It was a Desaster! My Stylist is a pro - Iam not 🙈
As long as you take such super small slices, everything should end up fine. The hardest thing is the coordination. When I do my hair myleft, my hands have problems how to hold the brush or the foil, then when I found the right position, my arm that holds the foil feels like falling off) so I have to take little breaks to let my arm muscles chill out a little. So as long u do thin sections and take ur time, it should turn out good.
It's easy if you don't have grey hair.
I’m a stylist myself, & super picky about who I let in my hair! But you made it look super easy & fast! Loved it💕
I’ve been doing my own highlights ever since I saw her videos a few years ago. Thanks! Saving 100s of $ every year :)
I Love all of your at home tutorials... thank you for sharing!!
