New hair dayyyy is the best day ๐คธ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฅ๐พโจ
Big maintenance transformation on this beautiful lady. ๐ธ๐ผ
We retired her old nanos and replaced them with brand new 18โ bright blonde ones for spring.
While the top of her hair is quite blonde, she really wanted to tackle the darkness in the nape area. She wanted it bright, but blended with a soft root.
If youโre thinking โWow, that looks like a lot of maintenanceโ Youโre right!
But itโs not an all day appointment every time. Sheโs coming back in a few months for a โMini Blondeโ that focuses only on the face frame highlight and part line, which is about half the time & cost.
Big foils are usually done once a year, with shorter maintenance appointments sprinkled throughout the rest of the year. Nanos are reinstalled every 6-8 weeks.
The blonde baddie life isnโt for everyone. But if it is for you, DM me ๐๐

I ALWAYSSSS pre-was your extensions multiple times before installing them into your hair.
The hair is transferred from donor, hair salon, factories for processing, colouring, packaging, warehouse, to me. That's been exchanged through a lot of hand!
Extension hair is also pre-dyed, which often leaves behind some intense residue.
Extensions also fluff up about 30% after the first wash & blowdry. That is critical when installing & cutting into your natural hair for the most natural & seamless blend.

Spent 5 days at Vidal on my hair cutting skills.
While hair cuts arenโt my speciality, I still want to give you great haircuts to pair with your blonding & colour services. My primary focus was precision cutting, correcting my body & hand positioning, and having a better understanding of elevation & angles on the head shape.
While this course has helped answer some of my questions, itโs also created more. The bittersweet beauty of this industry is you will never know it all, thereโs always something to learn & improve on.
This course challenged me, but gave me a better understanding on how to execute these haircuts moving forward.
Thank you Joseph & Ophelia for your time, patience & knowledge!
YES this is the same head of hair, she wanted a BIG change. She was bored of having the same hair for some long, and wanted to go darker for spring!
Ashy grey colours require your hair to be BLONDE, which she already had. I only added a few foils on the very top to bring up some lightness. The rest of the transformation was colour formulation & placement.
ALL hair colour fades warm! This cool/ash/grey tone will slowly start to fade to a warmer medium brown/dark blonde. If maintaining a cool toned colour is a must for you, pre-book your toning gloss/colour appointments every 4-6 weeks!

If your hair is similar and you're wanting this look, book a "Refresh Blonde & Haircut" with me! On average my Refresh Blondes are $300-315. This is a great option for those only wanting to brighten up the top & front of their hair. DM me any questions about your hair goals. ๐
Did you know? ๐ค ALL new guests are booked an additional 30min consultation to discuss their hair colour & cut goals.
ou show me your inspo, I talk you through what's achievable today & how we get there, cost & what your maintenance is like.
Here are the main things we discussed for Saturdays curtain bangs & mushroom brown!
This honey blonde look was achieved by using a combination of lightener & high lift for highlights. ๐ฏโจ
The highlights done with lightener give us those pops of brightness, while the highlights done with high-lift give a rich warm background. ๐ค๏ธ
A highlift colour is more gentle on the hair, so this is a great option for those who are hair health conscious, but itโs not an option for everyone. High lift can only lift through virgin, non-coloured hair. Highlift is best done on those with a dark blonde base who want a warm result, as highlift can only lighten so much and will always be warm.
The last 2 videos are the difference between a blow-out & curls, direct sunlight & indirect sun/indoor lighting. Itโs normal for your hair colour to look different in different places! โ๏ธ๐ก
DM me to talk about your spring hair ๐๐
Would you have known she was wearing weft extensions? No? Thatโs how it should be.
These wefts came bright blonde roots to ends, so I added a root melt to match her natural depth for the best blend when her hair separates.
Done with permanent colour for the longest lasting results, which means less maintenance, which means less time & money.
