How many color correction clients are there?
3
An existing client who was happy with her haircolor, A client who has colored her hair herself, and a client who is unhappy with her color result are 3 types of what?
Color correction clients.
What type of color correction client contributes to a positive color correction experience?

Why would an existing client who was happy with their last haircolor become a color correction client?
They have decided that they want to change their color.
Why is a color correction performed on a client who was happy with their last hair color but wants a change a positive experience?
Because it is done out of desire rather than necessity.
Why do permanent colors have an opposite action of what we want to achieve if we are re-pigmenting?
Because they lighten the hair.
When re-pigmenting the hair, we only want to ________ color.
Deposit
The _______ charged environment of bleached hair , repel the negatively charged molecules of __________color.
