So, how does that relate to the colour wheel and the theory behind hair colour? Step 3 – The Colour Wheel and Hair Colour Theory It is estimated that the human eye can distinguish between a whopping 10 million colours in the visible colour spectrum. Mixing these colours together in different proportions makes all the colours of the light spectrum. There are three primary colours: red, yellow and blue. This colour is then reflected off the object. When light – or white light – hits an object, all colour wavelengths are absorbed except the colour of the object. Light is made up of wavelengths and each wavelength is a colour. We see the object’s colour from its colour wavelengths. When light hits an object, it is reflected off that object and into your eyes. If you were concentrating back then, you may remember that light travels in straight lines. If you’re just starting your hair colour journey, then your first stop is to dig deep into your long term memory and re-familiarise yourself with your primary school classes on the science of light.

The best colourist in the world would not attempt a client consultation, never mind a colour formulation, without consulting the theory of colour science and colour mixing. Nothing gets a hair colourist’s artistic juices flowing more than a colour wheel.
