if you live in the socal / los angeles area, the stores have began putting pencil tags on most of the items. though, they do not have a scanner near the front and the girls working are really careless with the tags as they don’t put it on all of the clothing. i’d say they’re mostly placed on the more expensive items such as skirts, pants, dresses, and shorts. other than that, the store is still SO easy to lift from !!

I’m adding in all basic supplies needed to lighten or color your hair! You can tweak this to your needs. As always, if you can’t find this in store, you can always scam!

Lightening powder/bleach

20 Volume developer

30 Volume developer

Wella T-18 toner

Hair coloring bowls (must measure ounces, plastic or glass)

Mini whisk (totally optional, this or the brush will be fine to mix the color/lightener with)

Gloves

Apron/Smock

Hair coloring brushes (the soft ones, not the cheap, hard bristled ones since these will tangle up your hair, the handle must be plastic!)

Tail comb brush

Kitchen scale (if you’re doing this professionally/extra precisely)

Hair clips (NOT METAL!)

Olaplex

Protein filler (will make sure your color spreads out evenly, equalized your porosity, etc)

Hair color

Hair color key (if you’re using hair color that comes in a tube)

Shampoo for colored/lightened hair

Conditioner for colored/lightened hair

Reparative hair masks

Curling hair masks (if you have curly hair, since this whole process will damage them)

Hair coloring/lightening tips:

Do not use anything metal on your hair while coloring or lightening it! Any mixture that includes developer in it will have a terrible reaction when it comes in contact with anything metallic. It can cause hair to dissolve.

Nothing more than 20 Volume developer should be used during coloring/lightening, unless you want an extreme amount of lift in one session (absolutely not recommended!). This WILL wreck your hair. It’s better to do many sessions a few days apart than to put your hair through hours of processing.

NEVER put processing hair under heat. Again, this will wreck your hair. This is only done by hairdressers that are tight on time/don’t care about your hair.

Always let the lightener process for its stated time on the package (or until you get your desired amount of lift).

Always cap your developer after using it. Exposure to air will decrease its strength.

Mixing two developers will result in a lower strength. Ex: Mixing 40 and 20 volume will result in 30 volume.

The more sessions to lighten in, the less yellow you will see.

Always do your roots last when lightening! These will lift the quickest since it has continual heat from your scalp.

You can mix in virgin olive oil into your hair color/lightener mixture to protect it a bit more.

Don’t have extremely dirty, oily hair when processing. The oil and dirt can cause the color to not be able to stick, therefore leaving you with patchy color.

- you’re not a lifting blog

- you post from outside the community

- you ONLY reblog posts that have thousands of notes (this tells me that you’re just reblogging things you can find in the liftblr tag)

- you don’t have a profile picture or background

- you have no posts

- you have a blog name unrelated to lifting
