Yes, can we see the unprocessed version of that photo please Tay?
Scarlet, it's easy, honest. I used to do painting, so I had sets of both paints and inks. I had them all labelled and in a specific order. I then got friends (real friends who told me the truth
) to say "this ink is darker than that paint and compliments it, and this paint is a good highlight to this paint". I then created a chart of "things that work" and just stuck to it. I had a "skin tone" selection and a formula for working it out, that kind of thing.
And Joey, orange IS a fab colour, but I hate pink. So I actually think pink is a fab colour and hate orange - so I think you're the broken one
To bring this back on topic, have my eye :lol:
so you can all decide for yourselves
So your boss probably does something similar. He'll know which dyes react in which way to different hair colours and as long as he is good (i.e. can cover the hair evenly) then it should be fine. There's a risk (apparently my recent fence painting job is "blotchy" :roll
, but as long as you have a set of rules that works and you can stick to them, then it's fine. It limits your ability to be creative to a degree, but it's possible.
