00:00Just from having all these funky, vibrant colors,
00:03I just started loving myself and building that confidence.
00:05My hair defines me.
00:07It's my crown.
00:10Hi, my name is Cherry.
00:11I'm an entrepreneur in New York City,
00:13and this is Hair Me Out.
00:14I'm taking my colored hair that's a bit damaged
00:17and going for an all over red.
00:19My current hair makes me feel strong, vibrant, sexy.
00:23Just being a black woman, having purple hair,
00:27it's very out of the norm, but I love it and I feel supreme.
00:32Last year was the first time I've dyed my hair ever.
00:35I went from blonde to pink, orange, green, blue, now purple.
00:41I do feel like my hair is a bit damaged
00:43because my curls used to be more intact and bouncy and flowy.
00:48Now it just gets a little flat here and there,
00:51but I'm excited for this transformation
00:53because I'm finally getting my hair professionally done
00:55so I can keep dyeing my hair in the future.
01:01Red hair.
01:02My name is Cherry.
01:03Do you see this outfit?
01:04I'm so ready for this transformation.
01:06So Cherry, are you excited about going red?
01:09Yes.
01:10Any concerns?
01:11I've been just dyeing my hair for about a year now,
01:14so I just want to really take care of my girl.
01:17We'll definitely take care of that, so don't worry.
01:20Okay, so we're going to start with a single process, okay?
01:22Since you have regrowth and then the ends are quite light,
01:27we're going to do a gloss on top of it after.
01:30It's just going to seal the color in,
01:31and then we're going to add in a Cara Fix treatment.
01:34Your curls are going to be beautiful and bouncy.
01:37It's definitely going to reflect your personality.
01:38I'm really excited about this transformation.
01:40Dang.
01:41Let's get started.
01:42Yes.
01:52We're going to put it all over,
01:54and I'm going to try to even out your color,
01:56since you have two different colors going.
01:58My mom will be very excited about this red.
02:00She's been nagging me about going back to a natural color,
02:03so I hope she really likes it.
02:05I feel like black and brown wouldn't complement my style
02:08and my personality, and red would be fitting for Cherry, my nickname.
02:13So we're going to let this process for 30 minutes,
02:16and then after that, you'll be ready to be rinsed.
02:20I feel like I got a lot of stares and looks
02:23when I first started dying my hair,
02:24and at first, I felt a little isolated and weird,
02:27but after that, I just started loving myself
02:30and building that confidence, like,
02:32hey, I'm Cherry, this is me, I have colored hair.
02:35My confidence translated, so now I don't need these vibrant,
02:38different, funky colors, so now I can tone it down
02:42and still have that confidence.
02:44So it's best to use shampoo and conditioner
02:46designed for color-damaged hair to help strengthen hair
02:50and keep its color vibrant for longer.
02:56All right, so I think we should put some lighter pieces on top
03:00and a few in the back just to kind of balance your ends out.
03:04We're going to do foilage, which is kind of like balayage,
03:07but in foils.
03:08Mmm, okay.
03:08It's a really cool technique.
03:10I think you're going to really like this.
03:12Since your hair is pretty damaged from continuous bleaching,
03:16I don't want to bleach it too much.
03:17That's why I'm using foilage to create deft,
03:20to add pop and shine.
03:23Honestly, I don't even know what my friends are going to say,
03:25but I know they're going to love it.
03:27I'm still going to feel like me after this transformation.
03:31Fun, sexy, edgy, so this hair is just going to add more to that.
03:35My hair is already damaged from all the coloring in the past,
03:38so I'm excited because they will take care of my hair
03:41so I can keep dyeing it in the future.
03:44So now, Cherry, I'm going to apply the gloss.
03:48This will give you more pop to your hair color.
03:53So, Cherry, I just finished with the gloss.
03:56It looks amazing.
03:57Thank you, too.
03:57And Roslyn will take care of you.
03:59Hi, Cherry.
04:00So now, I'm just going to give you the deconditioning Carefix mask.
04:03And what it does, it helps make your hair stronger.
04:05And usually, you leave it in for about 10 minutes.
04:21Our Carefix treatment, it helps build your hair back up.
04:24It helps with the bonds.
04:25It makes your hair stronger because every day we use protein,
04:28so it's just going to help build it back up.
04:40I'm going to be styling your hair today.
04:41Hi, Cherry.
04:41I'm Emily.
04:42I'm going to be styling your hair today.
04:43Great.
04:44The color is amazing.
04:45Oh my god, thank you.
04:47So, talk to me.
04:48What are you looking to get done today?
04:49So, I still want to keep the same form.
04:52Just want to like volumize it because that was one thing I was concerned about with the new color.
04:58And we can cut more layers on top just to give you some more of that volume.
05:01And just reshape everything, but just keep it in the same realm.
05:04Great.
05:04Sound good?
05:05Yes.
05:19All right, Cherry, are you ready to see your new hair?
05:21Yes.
05:21I'm so excited.
05:25Oh my god.
05:27What?
05:29Wow.
05:31Oh, this looks so good.
05:33It looks healthy.
05:34Like, my curl pattern is back.
05:37Not damaged.
05:38A brand new woman.
05:40All right, so I have two more people who really want to see this.
05:42Are you ready?
05:43Yes.
05:43Are they ready?
05:44All right, guys.
05:46Oh my god.
05:47Cherry, that looks amazing.
05:49It's so good.
05:50You guys did that, yes.
05:52I love it.
05:53I want the outcome of this transformation to show little girls that you can color your hair
05:58any color and not be judged.
06:00Just love yourself, own it, work it, and be strong.
06:05No.
06:07We're going to be still evolving.
06:08Bye.
06:09Bye.
06:11Bye.
06:11Bye.
06:12Bye.
