Not every blonde transformation needs to be dramatic foils from roots to ends.
Sometimes the magic is in working with the hair, not against it.
Using my Refined Blonde Method, I customised this colour to suit what her hair could realistically achieve, lifting the heaviness, softening the warmth, and creating a blonde that feels effortless, dimensional, and lived in.
Because great blonde isn’t just about going lighter…
it’s about creating the right blonde for the person sitting in the chair.

This was our first colour appointment together, but before she even sat in my chair we had a phone consultation. Her biggest concern? Her hair felt dull.
She had previously been a brighter blonde and felt like her hair had lost that spark, just flat, brassy and not very “blonde” anymore.
Before we touched a single foil, we needed to eliminate what could be happening outside of the salon.
Between our phone consult and appointment, I recommended she use the Malibu C Hard Water Wellness Kit to help prep her hair.
Because sometimes the problem isn’t the colour…
It’s the water you’re washing your hair in.
Hard water minerals can build up on the hair causing it to look:
• dull
• brassy
• flat
• harder to lift
Hair is often a process of elimination, and when I’m working with a new client I like to rule out everything that could be affecting the result.
Step one for this client: remove the buildup.
Step two: bring the blonde back to life ✨

It’s always such a risk taking the leap to work for yourself, but nothing good comes easy & it’s all worth it in the end! If you are a client of Autumns or just want to keep in touch with her make sure you are following her, she’d love to stay in touch with you.
P.s Curly haired clients, Autumn is your girl so make sure you give her a follow.

Some colours are maintenance.
Some colours are art.
9:00am — 2:40pm creating a completely customised blonde for the hair sitting in front of me. No templates and no “one formula fits all”… just intentional placement, controlled lift and softness where it matters.
This is my Refined Blonde technique. Brightness in the right places, depth where the hair needs protection and a blend that grows out beautifully.
When I say every blonde I do is intentional, this is what I mean.
She leaves blonde… but her hair still feels like her hair.

This wasn’t a “make me blonde” appointment.
It was a place the blonde correctly appointment.
Her hair is fine and fragile and she had spent months growing out old colour, so instead of chasing lift everywhere we protected the depth she’d gained and added brightness only where it matters.
Babylights, controlled lift, and pockets of natural shadow create contrast and contrast is what actually makes a blonde look expensive.
Low developer. Strategic placement. Healthy hair.
Believable blonde > over-processed blonde.
Toned with Fast Toner Natural Violet Ash.
