Catchphrases From the Past. What Do You Remember?

[ea56]

Stan,

Yes, believe it or not! I know that we were always instructed not to us anything metallic with peroxide, but, yes you used an egg beater in a glass or plastic bowl, not metal. I guess the brief contact with the metal beaters while beating the mixture had no ill effects. By the time I started in the business this was not used very often, though it was still available. Also, since both /whipped creme and Instant Whip were neutral they could be mixed with Miss Clairol Hair Color Bath for extra lift.

Also, before there were many commercial bleaches available they used to mix peroxide,ammonia and Lux Soap or Ivory Soap Flakes and whip it with an egg beater. And in cases were major lightening was required the peroxide and ammonia was mixed with White Henna, which was Magnesium Carbonate. This was the very earliest form of powder bleach. The White Henna mixture made a paste that held in the body heat on the scalp better than the soap flake foam did, thereby accelerating the bleaching process.

Aqua ammonia

To be exact for the use with peoxide and soap flakes.
Later when Clariol came out with their professional lightners...
The nice thing about these "on scalp" lightners, was that they were oil based, and lightning strength could be adjusted by using one to three boosters... Or no booster at all..just two parts peroxide to one part oil lightner. Since they were, or are engineered for "on scalp" the condition of the hair isn't bad, opposed to whats common now (duel purpose lightner) and generally a toner could be used after desired lightning stage was reached, with no problem.
With sensitive skin..Clairol Born Blonde Toner was a option.. Or a Fanciful rinse to get by until the real toner could be used. (Usually the Following week)
A nice Clairol toner was a mix of "Extra Light platinum" and "Ivory Chiffon"
The reason for adding some lightner to a tint back then, was for a little extra lift.. Remember 20 vlm was the standard. It wasn't common for us to have a higher percentage. Don't think back then I even knew there was anything higher. LOL

To get back on to the catch phrase..Dippity do Dippity for YOU! (Gillette Co)

I'm impressed with your knowledge of haircoloring and lightening. This is what made me want to become a Cosmetologist when I was 13. I watched my Mom getting her hair lightened and the whole process intrigued me. This was my favorite part of being in that business. I have to ask, are you a hair stylist?

I still have my copy of Clairols "How to Do Better Haircoloring" the 1962 edition. That was my bible for haircoloring in my early days in the business. And I apologize for hijacking the thread. It's not often that I think about this part of my working life anymore. I did many different kinds of jobs throught my life and learned alot about all of them along the way.

Clairol Ultra Blue lightener was mentioned above. For some reason I decided I wanted my medium blond hair lighter for my senior picture, so that's what I used. It turned out very blond!

Licensed and salon owner here along with my wife. I got my license in 94. We had owned a salon for a number of years with her license holding the shop license. I did a few customers but my license was held so that we could purchase other salons. Still keep it renewed but no longer, her or I are doing clients. Still own and operate them though. Also now we are the President and Vice President of the NH cosmetology association. We represent 30,000 licensees in out state. So we attend a lot of house, senate and committee meetings. We are also state reps for the Professional Beauty Association that covers all of the U.S. We do travel to those meeting often and are asked to speak because of the political work that we do for the industry in our state. So still keeping my hands in it but not literally. lol

Interesting Jon

I was involved in the CCA many years ago, and participated in the local hairstyling competitions ect. Have lost tract of the work of the NHC.
Like Eddie, I've been involved in different types of work, including managing a dry cleaning plant. Was also a cosmetology instructor, and a color specialist for a haircolor Co.
Took auto shop in high school.. What a mix right!
@ Eddie, guess that answers your question. LOL .. I have the same book, as well as the 1957 edition... Use to teach from them.
You can email me if you want, and We'l chat.

I knew you had to have a similar backround! I didn't take Auto Shop, but when I was younger and poorer I used to do a lot of my own auto repairs. Haircolor was my first love in the beauty biz. I didn't mean to be cheeky in my reply to your post. I wasn't aware of your extensive backround in haircoloring. I'll email sometime soon and we can chat.
