“Hej Helena! Jag älskade den ljusa vårsminkningen du la ut här om dagen, perfekt med inspiration för snabba, ljusa och diskreta sminkningar som ändå känns våriga! Skulle gärna önska fler sådana :) Kram”
Glad you feel that way! :) Here comes another light spring make-up with discreet colors that I hope you all will like!
Today Jeanette had an eyelash client that I could not help but take before and after pictures of. Partly to show you that it is possible to save a failed eyelash permanent if you should happen to it somewhere (hopefully not), but also so that you can see that it matters a lot whether you go to a salon with control or not. It is very important to go to a salon that you can trust!
This customer has long and rather coarse lashes, and had them permanently at another salon in Uppsala. And since they are quite rough, the person at that salon had decided to let the liquid work for 30 minutes. I do not know how long the exact liquid they use should work but I understood that it was quite far over the effect time, we let our liquid work for 6 minutes.
The result was a permanent eyelash that was crazy too much! They were almost glued to the eyelid, rubbed in the globe line (!) So that the skin on the eyes was irritated. It had been even worse the days after, she said, but it was far from nice now either.
Here you see a close-up of what the lashes on the worst eye looked like when she came here:
The lashes were almost glued to the eyelid!
Here is the result after a new permanent:
Jeanette började med att permanenta om dom, och lägga dom på en väldigt tjock spole så att dom “kom ut” lite från ögonlocken.
Then she actually had to sit with Hårologi Intensive Cure which is a hair wrap with amino acids that repairs the hair by adding proteins and repairing the sulfur bonds in the hair. Almost like an olaplex treatment. I did not see the lashes before the wrap but both the customer and Jeanette said that they actually got even better after the wrap!
Permanent eyelash does not wear on the lashes, as it is done once and then lasts until it grows away (which takes about 2 months). Not like when you permanent the hair and then that hair should sit for maybe 8 years after. But it is a bit dehydrating for the lashes if you do it several times, and after a 30 minute treatment just a few weeks earlier, it is probably absolutely noticeable on the quality of the lashes after you have run another round.
She brought a small jar of packaging home too, and so she bought it with her Refectocil Long Lash Gel which is like a caring wrap (and transparent mascara) that she can wear all day.
Really difference right? :) It would of course have been an even better result if she had come to us with completely impermanent lashes, but absolutely thinks that this result is super nice! She does not need mascara if you say so :)
Now I'm done at the hairdresser! You who follow my hairdresser Monica on Periscope (@msmonicawerner) or on her Facebook page Hairdresser Monica Werner has probably seen a bit already when she filmed live directly from the salon as well :)
Hårfärgen har nu en mildare, kallare ton, och så har vi “förberett färgerna” för att kunna bleka upp det mer ljusrosa i början av sommaren och ha ett bättre utgångsläge då.
Fint va? :) No big change but I love the tone of the new color!
Starting position
As I mentioned yesterday, I have been eager to get a little brighter, but still in the pink direction. When my previous bright pink color released in the shower, the tone became more pastel pink, which I liked! I think the tops of my color were great before.
So this time we decided to make my current color a little softer, cooler and more pastel, and bleach the more light pink next time instead because then both the base color and the lengths would have better conditions to look good.
The base color
Det fanns fortfarande kvar ganska mycket mörkhet från förra utväxt-färgningen, vilket gjorde att min utväxt nu var ljusare, sen kom ett “band” med mörkare röd färg och sen blev det ljusare igen. Så den förra bottenfärgen måste tvättas ur ännu mer först innan vi kan ljusa upp håret.
So she chose a tint for the scalp that will be washed out faster, and in addition it is a violet red color mixed with a cold brown so that it is not quite as bright red as we usually are. So the next visit to the hairdresser, my rat-colored outgrowth will not be a bit marked as now and then you can lighten your hair even more.
Luggen
Monica also put some loops in a light coral color at the front closest to the face, it is a color that for some reason (premium for little me) lightened up the hair a bit without being a bleach. So the fringe has become a little lighter than before as well, not much but a little still makes a big difference I think :)
The lengths
Resten av längderna färgade vi med en pastellrosa nyans, den hade lite svårt att fästa i topparna men hela håret fick en snyggare mer kall rosa ton som jag tycker är makalöst fin! Mer “genomtänkt pastellrosa” istället för “urtvättad knallrosa” hehe.
Yellow loop as a test
Monica was very eager to mix in some yellow loops, which I was a bit cowardly for haha. But we did a loop as a test to see if I want to do more next time or if we should just color it off then. But also to test how easily the hair is lightened (as it is a color that also bleaches a bit) which it did very easily so it is also good to know before the next coloring when we will lighten more.
In other words - There were four different colors in total! And since the growth will be softer the next visit to the hairdresser and the whole hair has a milder pink tone, it will be a nicer result in June then when we (if we stick to the plan) will bleach the hair first and then put on a pastel pink color again :)
Here you can see the light, pink color in the lengths a little better!
And do you also see a tiny glimpse of the yellow loop, do you see? It is barely visible when it is mixed with all the pink hair, but then I see partly how it will be on my hair but also how it changes after a shower a few times :)
And here you see the fringe color against the darker toning of the scalp, much lighter :)
What do you think? :)
On Monica's new website Monicawerner.se so you can do an online consultation before you book an appointment with her, to know what is possible to do with the hair, how much time you should book in and how much it will cost.
I have received requests for a bright, happy, discreet and invigorating make-up that can be done quickly and fits well this spring. Here comes one! Hope you like it :)
I have used three light, shimmery mineral eye shadows, a light purple, a light pink and a white. Nice, bright, shimmering, invigorating, but still discreet :)
