I will guide you to a successful bleach application and retouch.  We will first begin with pinpointing the correct viscosity of a bleach, the choice of bowl and brush versus bottle, sectioning, and the correct timing.  This will remove the fear of breaking the hair when using bleach.

4 Simple steps to bleach hair: TSWC (The Sun Will Come)

-          Tool: Bowl and brush or Bottle? What kind of bleach should you be using? What if a client has a sensitive scalp? 

-          Section & Saturate Separate the head into 4 quadrants and make each section thin as tissue paper. Do not overlap to previous lifting but saturate the retouch area properly. When you have finished applying, go back through your sections and apply again.

-          Wait: Let the hair process up to the desired level. This can take time, so being patient is key. What are the 7 stages of lift? What colors do we see through these stages?

-          Cleanse: Rinse the hair, washing up to 3 times. You don’t want the guest to have an irritation and if there is any leftover bleach it can disrupt your toner. 

Safe, confident, risk-free bleaching if you follow the proper guidelines and choose the right tools.
