It’s my day off and I’m finally not holding a pair of scissors!! ✂️

Slow morning with my favourite people (and the boy), a walk, a cheeky T2 run, and a gym sesh to get the body moving differently 💚

The space. The work. Both made with intention 💚🍃

Jodi went 5 months between visits 👀👱🏻‍♀️

Not every blonde needs a 6-week rebook. When highlights are placed with your regrowth in mind, they grow out soft instead of leaving a harsh line. That means you can stretch your visits without it looking grown out.

Keep in mind every head of hair is different. How far you can stretch depends on your natural colour, how fast you grow, and the look you’re after 💚💚

Olivia’s first ever colour, and we kept it gentle. A no-bleach balayage for soft, lived-in dimension with zero damage. Best part? This grows out beautifully, so it’s little to no upkeep right through to next year. First-timer colour goals right here. 🤎

5 things you should know before you go blonde 🤍

Going blonde is a commitment, and knowing this before you sit in the chair makes all the difference 😉💚



[ID: 5 things you should know before you go blonde from experienced Moonee Ponds hair stylist]

It’s a toner, not a cleanser. Using it too often can leave your blonde looking dull and flat. Once or twice a week keeps brassiness at bay without overdoing it.

Blonde ends are more fragile than natural hair. When you stretch out your trims, breakage creeps up the hair shaft. Regular cuts keep your ends healthy and your colour looking fresh.

Systems like K18 and Olaplex work to prevent damage before it starts ⛓️‍💥 They rebuild strength from the inside, keeping your blonde soft, healthy and lasting longer ✨

It’s the most expensive thing on the menu to maintain, and for good reason. The upkeep, products and salon time all add up, so it helps to budget for it from the start ☑️😙

Hard water can turn your blonde brassy and leave it feeling brittle. A simple shower filter helps protect your colour and your hair between appointments 🚿
