Also I am not able to edit anything as to where I’m located. My salon is in Dubois, I no longer work in Clearfield!

Before & After 🌟
Full head teased foils, NO HAIR LEFT OUT! Except what falls out from the backcombing (faded foiling), (20 vol with Olaplex), to get rid of as much brass as possible but keeping rooty dimension, I freaking love this method. Actually, I despise it and doing faded foils makes me wanna stab my eyeballs out, it takes forever and is a bitch to comb out and is probably not super healthy on the hair teasing it constantly but... the result is just GORGEOUS. I would not want to do that technique on the same client over and over but the first session as a corrective method I think removes as much warmth as possible and as much lightness as possible - yet it just leaves this natural dimension that is so pretty. It's up to you how much you tease or how little..more dimension or less but doing this will always leave a built-in lowlight so to speak, a dark veil.. .
Toner 💦
Smudge root- after rinsing and coming everything- SEQ 6T/7N, painting it down where the demarcation area is (from foils not the before demarcation) slightly below that, for about 5/7 mins- rinse the smudge, applied 9p/9v/splash 9gi/tiny splash 6t, followed by #2 for 8 mins. . I DO JUST AS MUCH WORK AT THE BOWL AS I DO BEHIND THE CHAIR 💕it doesn't take quite as long but when I rinse foils I'm far from done 👊🏻
I ALWAYS USE MY CLIENTS NATURAL BASE. I do not attempt to change it. Ever. That is why I use demi for a smudge root. If I would have used a permanent color her virgin regrowth, she'd be way too warm so I take that back- if you have a client who wants warmth, by all means add permanent, or if they are going darker I may in the right situation but I never add a permanent color that is LIGHTER than the natural base! If I have a client with gray hair that wants to be blonde, I blend highlights to the root. If I have a darker client with some blonde highlights, I obviously use permanent on the gray root only. .
NOT EVERYONE CAN GO THIS LIGHT!!

Brassy to Beautiful 💖
Jacqueline's 1st session consisted of getting rid of all that warmth and keeping a shadowed root- I went in with an entire head of faded (backcombed) foils everywhere except the top/top sides, there I did traditional foils so she'd be a little brighter. .
She has VERY resistant hair, I will start doing treatments on my clients or if they are out of town, I'll be recommending they find a salon in their area to do a Malibu treatment. I've had numerous clients with buildup/hardwater/ that interferes with lifting. Also, I've been telling my clients for months, invest in a shower head filter!! If your having issues with blonde turning brassy, this will help, it also helps the condition of the hair. Blondes will always go warmer, ash tones do not stay in the hair, ash/white requires a lot of upkeep/toning/blue-purple shampoos and if you leave any salon with white blonde, it will not stay white blonde without doing what your stylist said-- but adding crappy water will contribute to blondes being warmer and just dull.. .
I used 20vol with and toned with SEQ 9v/9p/9gi followed with blue shampoo 💦

I mean. .
Second session, full head faded foils, with 😍😍😍
Styled with treatment & texture spray 🙌🏻

Dimension 😍

Contrast 🌔
Kimber wanted dimension added so we went through with highlights & lowlights to her ends with a level 7 demi 😍 oh and chopped off about 4 inches!

Lightest blonde ⭐️ .
Merissa lifts flawlessly every single time. She is a natural blonde, level 8 😍 She only comes in maybe 2 times a year because she's so light that roots aren't obvious until they are several inches out 🙌🏻
I did good old traditional foils, I slice on nearly all my clients, they blend better that way, and occasionally I'll weave on top if I want a little more contrast.. half the time I don't even smudge the root with her because her growout is seamless but this session I did and used SEQ 7N just barely tapping the root to erase foil marks- for a few minutes, rinsed and applied 9v/9p/tiny 9gi/clear for 5 mins followed by #2 for 5 mins. Shampooed with purple 💜

One of the prettiest blondes in person I have ever seen, odd lighting even outside that day for pics but still so pretty 🙌🏻🙌🏻 Maddie is a level 7 naturally and was completely grown out other than blonde ends from last year. Her hair was in amazing condition. To be this light, the white blonde, prepare yourself to take care of it, better than you ever have before because white blonde is FRAGILE. You cannot treat it the same as a brunette- it's high maintenance. You will have hair in your brush, even at low volumes, once the hair gets that light, it has to be trimmed regularly, babied, toned, purple shampooed, you'll need thermal protection products, leave-in conditioning products, no high heat or not as often, air dried when possible, shampooed 3 times a week instead of daily, purple shampooed, toned, not flat ironed until its steaming, water filtration of some kind, better brushes, better shampoo & conditioner, no drug store bs, lots of conditioner, deep conditioning masks, the list goes on! Blonde hair needs taken care of properly or it will look and feel like 💩... .
Side note:
If you have anything darker than a level 4, naturally or especially colored-- please do not sit in my chair and ask me for white blonde hair, IT WILL NOT HAPPEN. AT LEAST NOT IN ONE SESSION! Or maybe ever because by the time a dark brunette gets to light blonde, it's pretty fragile. And then because of the warm undertones, a dark brunette will always be brassy unless you want to be in the salon every month for a toner. Dark brunettes just cannot be light light blonde. For me anyhow... 💖
