Here is a sneak peek of my new art studio. Not complete, but very close!
I'm so grateful to jurors Katherine Chang Liu, Dean Mitchell, and John Salminen for selecting my painting "Venice Laundry VI" for the 100th International Open Exhibition of the NATIONAL WATERCOLOR SOCIETY. My thanks also to Penny Hill and everyone at NWS for all the hard work it takes to make this happen and for all they do for the arts community. I tickled rainbow.

Remember a post from last Nov. This is the out growth. Decided to soften the stark outgrowth by using the original formula listed in last post, but this time foiling the out growth only. When this has processed for half the time required, I then went in-between the foils using an hombre method I foiled in more highlights lifting to a pale blonde. Now there will be more damage towards the bottom from this process,but hair is still in great shape.
Sorry about the last pic, not sure why it came out a little blurry, but you get the idea.
Two barber shops and one salon in Cuba that I came across.
I have been preaching for years that no one is looking out for our health when it comes to chemicals on our head! Fortunately Irina Webb has been doing this. A great resource site to see what your using on your scalp.

There are times of the year when the scalp is drier and slight sensitivity may be experienced while processing any haircolor. This usually occurs during the winter months (drier scalps from the cold and furnace) or during the summer months when we experience sunburns. There are a few measures that can be taken to prevent this from occurring:
• when applying color, gently lay the color on the scalp without being rough with the brush
• after the color application is complete, lift the hair with a rat tail comb, (especially is the hair is long) to allow the ammonia vapors to escape
I have started using Sweet'n Low, two packets in the color mixture to help with the itching. There is nothing that proves this works except the clients who say they are not itching.

Four levels of color to create this look. Revive your grey!
Fall highlights and lowlights.
Two reds yesterday, showing the difference between warm red and cool red.
Take someone with natural level 2 (one shade from black) using formula 6NP 15cc 6NC 15cc 40 Vol, virgin process. First set of highlights to create a little more lift with dimension with D-Color-B 40 vol, followed by second set of highlights spread out for a pop affect using Ice 40 vol. This will allow for a natural warmth with out over processing the hair with pre- bleaching.
Until spring! I hope all the garden creatures stay safe and warm.
