Depth and Tone
  • Hair colour is defined in terms of depth and tone.

  • Depth is the base colour (lightness or darkness) of the hair and ranges from 1 (black) to 10 (lightest blonde).

  • Tone refers to the warmth or coolness of a colour. There are two types of tone: primary and secondary.

Tones of the hair
Unfortunately, manufactures don't all use the same numbering system when describing tones. 

All manufactures have their own numbering system that you will need to learn.

All numbering systems describe the tone you see. 

All manufactures use a similar description of the tone, but the numbering system will vary.

In the colour chart, the first digit after the depth is the stronger ‘primary tone’
For example 8A is light blonde with a strong tone of Ash.
When there are two tones the first number or letter is the stronger tone and the second is a minor tone.
For example
6GB – would be dark blonde with a Gold being the more dominant tone and  Brown being the secondary tone.

Natural hair pigments
The cortex contains all the natural and artificial colour pigments of the hair. It is the layer of the hair where all chemical action takes place. You can see the hair’s colour through the transparent cuticle.

 
Natural hair pigment varies from person to person, depending on the colour pigments.

The pigments are called MELANIN and consist of two types:
Eumelanin and Pheomelanin.


Slide 24 - Slide

This item has no instructions

Eumelanin
Eumelanin (dark hair) is made up of black to light brown colour pigments.


These are larger colour molecules with varying amounts of all three primary colours, but predominately contain blue and red pigments.

Slide 25 - Slide

This item has no instructions

Pheomelanin
Pheomelanin (lighter hair) is made up of blonde colour pigments. 

These are tiny molecules of colour spread throughout the cortex, with varying amounts of red, yellow and orange colour molecules, but predominately contains yellow pigments.

Slide 26 - Slide

Natural hair colour
  • If you looked at two heads of hair, one dark brown and one light brown, both would have the same amount of colour pigments, but the amounts of blue, red and yellow melanin would vary. 
  • These different combinations give us depths and tones.

  • Clients with darker hair (more eumelanin pigments) who want a much lighter result may need to have their hair PRE-LIGHTENED before applying the final colour choice. 
  • This technique involves lightening the hair with a lightening product and suitable strengths peroxide to the desired level of lift, before adding your chosen tone. 
  • The tone can be added with a semi-permanent, quasi-permanent or even a permanent colour with a low-level peroxide.

What is the cortex of the hair responsible for?
A
Containing natural and artificial color pigments
B
Protecting the hair cuticle
C
Producing melanin
D
Determining the hair's texture

Slide 29 - Quiz

What does the first number or letter represent in a hair color with two tones?
A
The stronger tone
B
The minor tone
C
The brand of the hair color
D
The depth of the hair color

Slide 30 - Quiz

This item has no instructions

Undertones

This is because the pheomelanin pigments are smaller and harder to remove. You need to understand what the natural shade has underneath to make it that depth.

When you are removing colour you will be lifting colour – both natural and artificial – out of the hair.

Neutralising unwanted colour tones
  • The colour star is also used to help us neutralise unwanted colour tones. The colours opposite each other will cancel each other out.
  • If a colour result has a green tone, you would need to add a red toner to neutralise it.
  • The most common toners used have violet or blue in to neutralise yellow or orange tone on the hair when lightening.

If there is a permanent colour already on your clients hair and they want to achieve a lighter tone, you need to remember

Meaning a permanent colour will not lift any artificial colour on the hair. This would require you to pre-lighten the hair to achieve the desired colour.

Equally is the level of lift required by the client is not achievable using a permanent colour with 12%, then you would need to pre-lighten the hair with the lightening products first.
