Colour Correction Intensive
The work that makes or breaks a reputation. Diagnose before you mix, and plan a correction over sessions rather than hours.
Course overview
Correction is the work that makes or breaks a colourist's reputation, and it is almost never about the product you reach for. It is about whether you correctly diagnosed what was already on the hair before you started.
Over four intensive weeks in groups of five, you will work through banding, hot roots, box-dye build-up, brass and failed lifts on real heads. Every case begins with a strand test and a written plan, and finishes with a debrief on what you would do differently.
What you will learn
- Strand testing and reading hair history before you mix anything
- Removing box dye and build-up without destroying the integrity
- Fixing banding, hot roots and uneven lift
- Neutralising brass and controlling unwanted warmth
- Bond builders: what they do and what they cannot rescue
- Pricing and staging a correction across several appointments
Who this is for
- Experienced colourists who currently turn corrections away
- Salon owners handling their team's difficult cases
