Based on the provided reference snippet from a YouTube video titled "Fast Foil For Maximum Coverage," using fast foils involves a specific technique for folding, securing, and placing the foil during a hair coloring service, likely focusing on achieving coverage and precision. The video excerpt demonstrates actions performed after a section of hair has been prepared for foiling.
Demonstrating Fast Foil Placement
The reference describes the following sequence of actions for handling and placing a fast foil for a specific hair section:
- Fold It: The foil is folded. This initial fold often creates a pocket for the hair or reinforces an edge.
- Hold It: The folded foil is held, presumably with one hand, ready for placement.
- Lift It Up: The foil is lifted into position near the head and the section of hair being foiled.
- Hit My Comb Here: A comb is used in conjunction with the foil. This action likely helps secure the foil near the root area, provides tension, or ensures a clean application line.
- Do It Tight: The placement or fold is made "tight," suggesting a close and secure fit against the scalp or hair section to prevent slippage and ensure even processing.
- Lay It Down: Once securely placed and tightened, the foil is laid down against the head.
After successfully securing one section, the process is repeated for subsequent sections:
- Go Do Another Slice Here: The next section (or "slice") of hair is identified and prepared for foiling.
- Pin It Up: Any surrounding hair is likely pinned up out of the way to isolate the new section cleanly.
This technique, as shown in the snippet, emphasizes secure folding and placement using a comb to achieve a tight fit, crucial for maximum coverage and control when using fast foils. It's a specific step within the broader process of applying color or lightener using foils.
