Air Touch
Master controlled Air Touch coloring. A course for hairstylists who want to work with intention to build multidimensional blonde with strong light reflection underneath and a natural, darker top.
Result and process
About the course
Air Touch is a comprehensive coloring technique for achieving a subtle, multidimensional, diffused blonde effect. The course shows how to work on natural level 8 hair - for a client tired of global lightening - to build lasting color with strong light reflection underneath and a naturally darker, seamlessly integrated top. This is a course about moving from random air touch results to a consciously designed, fully controlled service.
Adam Sierocki walks you through a detailed working scheme that defines the entire coloring process before any product is applied. You'll see how precise sectioning into symmetrical triangles at the back, separately worked sides, and a secured top become a map for the final effect. A key element of the course is conscious control of how much hair is blown out depending on the zone - from the first foils, blown out minimally for strong light reflection, to gradually increasing diffusion toward the top.
In this course, you'll see
- The full sectioning scheme into symmetrical triangles at the back, plus a separately worked front, as a precise map for the entire coloring service
- The principle of graduating the blow-out - from minimal at the nape for strong light reflection, to increasingly diffused toward the upper sections
- Why the first 3-4 foils from the bottom are lightened almost panel-style (without blowing out) and how this builds the foundation for the entire effect
- The technique for integrating the dark top with the rest of the coloring - how to use air touch with more blow-out to create a smooth, blurred transition
- Separately working the front to achieve a "front blonde" effect without creating a harsh line against the rest of the hair
- Working with the coloring board and brush - how to work product in from the edge of the brush and push it in at the root without risking patchiness
- The role of washing in finalizing the effect - how to rinse out product without disturbing the blending you've already built
After watching this course, you'll stop treating air touch as a one-size-fits-all technique and start consciously designing how light falls across the head based on each client's expectations. You'll learn to build color services that look natural, don't create a harsh regrowth line, and let clients space out their salon visits - while raising the value and profitability of your service.

Full access with the course
1:0701The key importance of sectioning
They're extremely important, because they give us the entire blueprint for the coloring.
21:4802Changing the intensity of the blow-out
As we get closer to foil number five, we'll be blowing out more and more of this hair.
29:4203How to judge the thickness of a section
For me, the benchmark for section thickness is that the layer should be fairly translucent.
1:33:5504Technique for a strong front blonde
With front blonde, I often don't blow this hair out at all for one or two foils.
1:56:3805A new technique for blending the top
I'll keep working with the air touch technique, but differently. First, I'll pick it out by hand with the tail comb.
2:01:1706How to avoid "stamping" on top
If the hair is too long, it's better to do it in two passes and close the top with a dry foil.
2:15:3207Brightening with free airflow
For the hair where I want to add a bit of light, I'll simply comb it through, without foil.
2:34:2008Styling that highlights the color
Wavy hair will work completely differently on camera. It reflects light in a totally different way.
