Chrystofer Benson’s NAHA 20 Haircolor Technicals
The overall concept chosen for this canvas was based on the exact pattern and tone in the butterfly’s wing. First, the hair was cut and then pre-lightened to a very pale yellow and then toned to the ultimate softness of a sensual blonde color. The butterfly palette of tones served as the focal point...a stunning spectrum of refined colors that gave perfect detail to the canvas. The strong haircut was just as progressive -- softly shattered internally with a very structured outline. The result is a pattern of nature reproduced with a radical approach to hair design.

30 vol. Color Generator
The model had a double-process blonde with LOGICS Light Reactions Powder Lightener + 30 vol. Color Generator which was applied ½-inch off scalp to the mid length but not to the ends. After the mid length started to lift, lightener was applied to the scalp. The hair was then processed to pale yellow; lightener was pulled through to the ends of hair for the final lightening process. The hair was then processed and pre-lightened evenly to a very pale yellow, rinsed, shampooed, towel-dried and was ready for toning.
Processed for 55 minutes

Step Three:
Sectioning: Section 3 crescent-shaped sections at the top crown getting thinner at front hairline, work sections around the curvature of the head, knot, and clip away.
The color pattern for the foil slices are as follows:
Start in the crescent shape furthest back in crown, apply color formula:
LOGICS Imprints 4N-S 1 oz. + 4G-S ½ oz. + 4RO-S ½ oz. + 5 vol. Color Generator 2 oz.

The overall concept chosen for this canvas was based on the exact pattern and tone in the butterfly’s wing. First, the hair was cut and then pre-lightened to a very pale yellow and then toned to the ultimate softness of a sensual blonde color. The butterfly palette of tones served as the focal point…a stunning spectrum of refined colors that gave perfect detail to the canvas. The strong haircut was just as progressive — softly shattered internally with a very structured outline. The result is a pattern of nature reproduced with a radical approach to hair design.
