This was how I was taught to highlight 24 years ago! Crazy to see people doing this again! It was always a good technique for me!

What developer can i use? 30 any brand developer? does developer and bleach expire??? my hair doesn't seem to be lifting so could I use any developer with my schwart blonde me bleach as I just got a new one and the Schwartz developer has not arrived grrrr

How does the product not start lifting the sections of hair above or below the weave you applied it on?!?

I love that you show realistic techniques for a busy stylist!

Great technique. Simple, to the point directions. Covered just what was needed to give her a refresh. I would say this is what the average light to medium brown level 5, 6, 7 prefers. Nothing over the top, low maintenance, with an easy, soft grow out. This way will get you more customers in the chair and will have them coming back.

Wonderful Mary thank you very much for your comment

This turned out so well! I was shocked by the outcome! I'm trying to learn how to color my own hair, and foils are very hard. But I thought they were needed to isolate the hair. I have one of the boards, but it's long with no handle and I keep dropping it. Gonna look into one like this!

Love the new haircut! Love seeing my hair type being modeled!

Stunning as per usual, James!🥰

Love this, seen you do it before (privileged 😊) love how simple it is. So many things I see seem complicated and out of my remit. Maybe not

I love it. I always fear them having lines when they pull it back, so I’d be tempted to leave our a little front halo and paint it back ways. This would be perfect for my teenager who prefers subtle and fast.

Absolutely gorgeous!!!❤️❤️❤️

Thankyou for sharing James ❤️x

Hi james enjoy your teaching ,thank you. Did I miss the shade you used? Would love a teaching on face framing evenly ..after many years still a. challenge am afraid :) Thx dar

Best highlight video I've seen! :D Thank you!

Very pretty outcome! I bought that teeth board from your link ages ago and only just tried it! Really great tool (tho I think I might have used it the wrong way round lol oops)

What lightening product are you using

OMG!! this is brilliant. I have never heard of charcoalite bleach - what developer do you use and how does it not bleach the rest of the hair????? I'd like to know how long you left it on. I still using the hilite cap - old school lol.. i did mine yesterday and for some reason it didn't seem to lift and I used what I always use - not sure if I over did it with the toner. I used same products as I have already done. Not sure if bleach and developer go off?? should last for over a year I am sure??

She has such a nice hair texture pattern

Loved this vid! The end result was beautiful! Much blonder than I expected it would be! Would love to know what bleach you used!

Thank you Kimberly. Charcoalite bleach.

Love this could you reccomend a bleach plz

What is that tool called? Thank you for the video

What type of bleach works best for this technique?

I have recently trained and am looking for a way.to speed up my time. I love this idea have thought about it alot but I'm worried about bleeding,. does it not transfer with you not foiling them 👍

What brand "charcolite bleach" and what developer are you using - vol??

You can just let the bleached pieces lay on the other hair without foils?

Thank u

The part that you did not color did not affect the underneath?

Lovely 😊

Also doesnt the "charcoalite bleach" dry out and then not be effective - plus how long do you leavve it on????

Is there any bleeding that occurs on hair that will get laid over on top?

Hey man. What kind of bleach were you using?

Hi I’m curious can you do this method with a root touch up or would the colors bleed to much. Thanks

I wonder the same. I guess with root touch up for lowlights you would need foil to separate the hair.

What was the colour product you used James? ❤️x

Did you use bleach or hi lift color?

Was it a clay bleach ? Wondering how you kept it from bleeding, if not clay

The light now is charcoal lightener mixed on a 1 to 1.5 ratio

Did you use a higher developer since you didn’t incubate with foils?

Hi so the board is a highlighting board with teeth. And I used charcoalite bleach.

Hair nerd and former instructor here, this is in fact a balayage. I know its a name for a trend, but originally its just a french technique for hand painted hilights

Where you using bleach 20 vol I would be worried about bleeding in to the other hair

@cassandrav4358

He used a special charcoal bleach ratio 1:1.5 . The charcoal tends to be thick and so as long as you gently lay them on top of each other, it shouldn't bleed

Hi, Good evening.May i ask a quick question? I've left a few questions and/or comments recently on the feed to various uploads but not had a reply, which i understand totally because your a busy man of course so i know your time is short when replying so thats cool. So just want to confirm, in order to get an answer if at all possible if your not busy, do i need to pay on patreon? The reason i ask, is because i was recently made redundant after 12yrs of service in my job, so i cant really afford (at the moment) to join despite wanting to but as a single mum, my son and bills come first. Which avenue do i need to take in order to ask for your advice which, must i say, i do trust (based on your uploads and initially, what triggered me to subscribe to your channel) as i would love the feedback but don't get it unless from what i see on LIVE stream you need to pa which at present i cant due to reasons explained above. Any time you have to feed this back, I'd greatly appreciate, as I'd love to know how to get answers to my questions due to admiring your advice on tutorials and/ or uploads posted. Kind Regards, Lawton, UK

No you should not get bleeding onto the other hair providing the consistency of the lightener is good I like to mix if 1 parts powder to 1.5 parts pro oxide and you have controlled the saturation of the Lightner on the hair.
