The document discusses primary and secondary colors used in painting and pigments. It then explains how hairdressers use color correction by applying the opposing color on the color wheel to neutralize unwanted tones, such as using ash or violet tones to neutralize too much gold and red tones to neutralize a green tone. It provides a saying to help remember the order of the colors on the color wheel.

5. Colour Correction
 For us as hairdressers we
use the colour wheel to
help us with colour
correction.
 The opposing colour will
neutralise the offending
colour.
 For example if there was to
much gold in the hair we
would neutralise this with
ash or violet tones.
 If their was a green tone we
would neutralise with red
tones.
