COMBINATION
Series C concentrates on combination colour, and as well as introducing freehand colouring, demonstrates an array of techniques that combine the skills learned from the A and B series, the mastery of which will create a comprehensive range of modern salon techniques.
Explain each of the following:
COMB ON COLOUR: Adapted here to visibly reduce white hair, the comb on colour technique provides a
natural, discreet result that is perfect for a male clientele. The female variation demonstrates the definitive
way to execute this simple but effective method of optically increasing texture, depth and movement.
TWO TONE TINT: This technique is a modern interpretation of the classic tint application. The appropriate
sectioning method is carefully demonstrated, while for added inspiration, two variations have been
included that illustrate different sectioning patterns and colour choices.
TINT & HIGHLIGHTS: An extremely popular salon application, this technique demonstrates the accurate
placement of weaved sections combined with a total colour, to produce a multi-tonal, highly commercial
look, that has an infinite number of variations.
BACK TO BACK PANEL: This technique combines back to back slicing with a classic tint application, and
due to its versatility, is a valuable addition to any modern colourist’s repertoire, as it can also be used as
the basis for many aspects of contemporary fashion colour work.
