Hi everyone it's April with Hair 101 and we are going to do something new and different
today we are going to try the leopard print i've never done this before so hopefully it
works out i'm just doing it how I would do it i've never seen anyone else do it so hopefully
my technique works she has long hair on this one side and then
shorter on the other side but we also have this layer right in here that we are dealing
with so we are going to take like a 2 and a half inch strip here and i'm thinking it's
going to need like an inch to 3/4ths of an inch or half an inch to three fourths of an
inch wide that's about an inch just so it's thick enough that you can't see through it
because I want to be able to make sure we can see the print nice and thick I don't want
it to be see through and so this all needs to be bleached out because we are going to
try to make this a caramel color and then i'll show you how to do the print on top of
it but her hair because of this little layer i'm thinking that I might want to try and
connect it down to some more fun print down in this section in here that's already kind
of caramel so this yeah here's my idea let's see if it works she has color in here so I
have to use a bleach I think i'm going to do the framesi decolor creme and probably
30 volume maybe 40 because she says she pulls really orange so and then i'll probably have
to tone it so let's mix that up I have this little section that I decided I wanted blond
and i'm going to take it into smaller subsections and just foil it with slicing it'll probably
need three slices and I want to keep it separated so i'm going to keep clipping off the unused
portions so I know how much to do and my foils are a little bit sad here sorry they got crumpled
in the move and you want to make sure you get it nice and tight to the scalp and then
I need to show you guys these new fun spatula brushes they are called sprushes I believe
the sprush yeah and this is my first time using them but cool idea whoever made these
and they sent them to me to try I can't remember probably just the sprush.com right we'll put
a link below to the awesome people that sent these and I will let you know what I think
of them and then every time I do slices with lightener I always fold it and then flip it
back over and then expose the underside look it did pretty good it got underneath the hair
i'm impressed I didn't think it would i'm going to just go over it again and make sure
that it's nice and saturated you don't want to put too much on there where it's like spilling
out so I decided to do the 40 volume just because she didn't want to have orange she
wants it lighter like a light ashy caramel I guess that's not really like she wants a
more ashy tone for the lighter part right Desarae yes so we are going to try to get
it light and then tone it I kind of like these spatulas because look how much color i'm getting
back out of the foil like you can kind of go over and scrape it down I think this would
save me on color that's nice so I did three slices alright so now i'm just going to try
to move this layer out of the way pulling up looks like right about there flip
this out of the way so we can and this is already light so I don't want to put 40 volume
on this I'm going to go through a few pieces and maybe just slice out the rest of the weaved
you can see that and i'm going to keep it into the ends let's see maybe we can even
woah static holy cow okay we decided to be brave and try this and put some of the print
down in here too so you see how it's kind of the light already mixed with some of the
dark i'm just going to go through and try to take out a little bit of the dark in the
ends i'm going to use a different brush for this one blusand beauty sent me these sprushes
and i'm liking them they sent me a whole set of them look how cute this little one is i'm
having fun with these it kind of feels like i'm just playing painting or spreading frosting
maybe that's more like what it is okay let see so i don't know why we have so much static
there we go so do you see these brown dark brown chunks i'm just going to pull those
out and lighten just the ends I don't really worry about the roots on this because it's
not going to show when her hair is laying down at it's natural lay what is it I can't
even think when it's styled you're not even going to see the roots i'm just doing the
ends that are dark maybe we'll do a little bit of ombre here yeah we'll do a little bit
of ombre here i'm just going to try to break up this line between the two sections with
a little bit of ombre technique so back combing the hair just makes sure that the line of
demarcation is softened and i'm just going to kind of hand paint on the lightener where
it's a little bit darker use this littler one that should be good alright you guys she's
just going to process until these foils have lightened up let me check this one really
quick but okay so this is how we're going to do it we're going to mix up the color that
we need to have a dark brown and then a lighter brown and the dark brown is going to be the
little c shape and the lighter brown is going to be the middle so I mixed up a 2N in the
redkin fusion with 10 volume and then a 6N with a little bit of 5 gold beige in it with
10 volume from the redkin fusion line and now is the fun part we need to pick up the
section so comb the hair out really smooth and then you're going to slide some tin foil
underneath and this needs to stay really close to the scalp like this and it needs to follow
the roll of the head if you lift it out when you do this technique then as soon as you
lay the hair down the pattern will get messed up so you need to make sure that it stays
flat onto the head i'm just going to extend this a little bit by clipping these into the
other clips so now I have this working area and I don't want these ends to be moving around
so what i'm going to do is just take a little bit of the ice spiker and i'm just going to
take it and paint it onto the very ends and keep this hair all together and smooth just
so it kind of stays down I don't want it to fall over you don't want to put it too high
up because it could keep the color from grabbing but I won't do any print down here anyway
just don't want anything to move moving is bad so now that I have it secured you can
let that dry for a few minutes good it's not moving when I tried to move it that means
it's working so here's the fun part this is how we're going to get our leopard print we're
going to use celery and i've found that the best pieces of the celery where they were
small enough and kind of more round were right at the heart you'll see here that's a good
one so that one was good and then also I did some cut at an angle so they could be a little
bit thicker and where's another one that I kind of peeled at this is the one right here
so I cut this one at an angle and chipped out just a few little pieces just to give
it some more shape with my fingernail so we'll see how this one turns out and so when you
dip them and lay them flat you need to dip them you'll dip them in the color that you
want and you'll lay them flat against it and get all the color in there so we're going
to do the black first so you get your little celery and let's mix this up really good and
this is the 2N so it's almost black it's dark dip the celery in and i'm going to test it
over here and make sure it does the shape I want maybe we'll try this one first okay
so we're going to go over here and pick a spot that's going to be our first little spot
of color okay now we're going to grab do one more down
here and you just have to kind of eyeball it and see where you want your little shapes
alright so we'll do another one right here it's kind of just like stamping it on there
and then so i'm changing up the celery slices so that they kind of look different different
angles try this one maybe right here that'll be fun let see then i'm going to turn this
one and kind of make it hook around little bit like that there we go celery who would
have thought that's awesome I need a smaller one right there okay so now that we have that
done i'm going to take this little angled brush so i'm going to take this little angled
spatula that I got and i'm just going to paint a little bit of this lighter brown color be
really careful not to blend it in to the brown or the black too much just smear it in a little
bit there just in the holes and I like this little pointy brush that I got this is really
cool I really like this little spatula brush because i'm able to dig it down into the edge
with just a tiny little point let's make sure it's getting in this looks cool right oh you
can't see it you guys remember I wanted to do some underneath too this will be a little
bit tricky so mm maybe I should have done the underneath first lesson learned next time
so yeah it'll be fine if I just go like that because if it's glued down it's keeping it
pretty smooth it's not even colored right there so we're good we can just continue it
right here okay so i'm going to grab out this color right here and do the same technique
that we did on the bottom or on the top I can't even talk anymore so put the foil in
clip it in and we're just going to have the leopard print start from right here where
it ends and just have it join up alright you guys she is going to be a leopard or cheetah
or whatever what print is this both i can't tell the difference how do you tell the difference
between a leopard and a cheetah I don't know but you guys might be able to tell me in the
comments but we're just going to let it process for 30 minutes and then she's going to be
rocking this leopard print hairstyle and i'm so excited to see it when it's done this was
really fun thanks for being so brave no problem you're awesome alright we are rinsing this
bad boy out and i'm trying to use cold water because then it won't bleed but it's not really
that light to bleed anyways so alright we are all done you guys shis was so fun like
it just felt like painting a project or something this was awesome and I think i'm going to
try a pink one next that would be really fun so this is our leopard print hairstyle on
my cute friend Desarae and I hope you guys like it let me know if you guys try this and
how it goes I really am digging this I can't stop looking at it look how fun turn your
