GLYNT: All about the Blondes!

Hey Gorgies!

We’re back and talking all things blondes with GLYNT Shadows Plus High-Lifts and Lightening Powders! If you’ve not already checked out parts 1 & 2, why not?! Come back when you’re caught up!

So let's dive in...

Shadows Plus High-Lifts Lowdown:

High-Lifts are for natural hair only and best used on levels 6-8. You can use them on darker levels, but the results will be warmer! High-Lifts can be intermixed only with one another or with Mix Tones for added neutralisation. We’ll cover Mix Tones in another mini blog!

·         On and Off Scalp

·         Mix Ratio 1:2

·         Cream Oxyd 9% for 3 levels of lift

·         Cream Oxyd 12% for 4-5 levels of lift

·         Apply to dry hair

·         Process for 50-60 minutes (the High-Lifts neutralise in the last 10-20 minutes, hence why we say at least 50 minutes processing!)

A handy tip to remember when using High-Lifts: you can use 11.00+ to dilute any of the other High-Lifts if needed!

High-Lift Colour Chart Navigation:

The High-Lift section in the colour chart shows the results on white hair swatches at the top, to showcase the available shades. It then shows swatches on levels 6-8, which can be removed to determine your client's starting level and possible colour results, whether they want warm, neutral, cool or beige tones! It’s hassle-free blonding!

So... that’s if we’re lifting natural hair...what about lightening coloured hair?!

Drumroll please!

GLYNT PLATINUM & MAGNUM Lightening Powders offer different levels of lift and tailored results, depending on your clients’ blonde goals! The power is in the powders!
