✨ From box dye overwhelm to calm, glossy confidence… this one’s a transformation you feel, not just see 🤎

She came to me after feeling completely overstimulated in busy, loud salons… the kind where you feel like you have to just sit and push through 🥺
Hair became something she handled alone, box dye after box dye, just to avoid that experience.

But the build-up, the banding, the uneven lift… it all caught up.
And when she tried to return to a salon, it still didn’t feel right.

So she found a quieter, more sensory-inclusive space here at Lacuna Ro Colchester, somewhere she could actually relax, feel heard, and trust the process 🤍

We started gently, because this wasn’t just about hair, it was about rebuilding comfort too… 😌

First step, a flash wash using Flash Lift Level 9 with Bonder, lifting through that stubborn box dye by 1 to 2 levels without compromising the integrity of her hair.

Then we moved into strategic placement, diagonal foils through the front to break up the heaviness, paired with soft balayage and tip-outs through the back to create dimension and movement. Again using Redken Flash Lift with Bonder to keep everything protected while lifting.

Once we reached that level 6 to 7 base, we refined.
For her root melt, we used Redken Color Gel Oils in 7NW and 6NW, creating a soft, natural depth.

Through the mid-lengths and ends, we balanced everything with Redken Shades EQ in 7NA and 7NW, working with the warmth, not against it.
Instead of over-toning, we used that warmth to reflect light, giving the illusion of brightness while keeping that rich brunette tone.

The result… a dimensional, glossy level 6 to 7 chestnut brunette that feels soft, expensive, and completely her 🤎

But more than that… she left feeling calm, comfortable, and confident again. And that’s the real transformation 🫶

If you’ve been avoiding salons because they feel too overwhelming, too loud, too much… I see you. And I’ve created a space that feels different

Drop me a message or book your consultation, let’s create hair that feels as good as it looks 🤍

Let’s be honest… telling a stylist something feels slightly off can feel scary.

At Lacuna Ro we’d always rather you told us. Hair can settle differently once you get home and small tweaks are completely normal.

You deserve to love your hair, not just live with it.

Have you ever been too nervous to say something in a salon?

🥶 This winter I have seen a rebellion to the cold…

A photo dump of a few favourite Red, Copper and Orange colours.

Balayages with Crazy colour boldness 🌈

I’ve loved creating every single one and not bowing down to the cold winters.

Let me know what was your favourite and what you think is coming for spring in the comments 👇

✨ Curly babes, can we talk about the absolute betrayal of invisible highlights? You sit in the chair, feel that fresh colour energy, excited that everything is going to look bright and dreamy in the mirror, then the moment your curls naturally spring back into their pattern, the colour decides to play hide and seek. Rude. 😌🤍

Your curls are never the problem. The placement is. Curly hair needs intentional mapping so those ribbons of light land exactly where the curl lifts, twists and opens. If the placement is off, your highlights blend too deeply into the curl. But when it is done right, they stay visible, soft and dimensional through every bounce.

At Lacuna Ro in Colchester, I understand how different curl patterns expand, shrink and shift as they settle. Which means I place your highlights where they will actually be seen, not just where they look good when styled straight or smoothed out. Think contouring, gentle brightness and luxe dimension made for your real texture. ✨

If your highlights keep disappearing into your curls, you deserve better light, babe.

👇 Comment HIGHLIGHTS and I will help you reclaim that glow, or send me a selfie of your curls in natural light and I will guide you from there. 💛
