Lannah and I mixed peekaboo with money piece with balayage and I think we liked it a lot.

Balayage I did a while ago that I never posted because it didn’t feel brunette enough to be a brunette and it didn’t feel blonde enough to be a blonde. It’s almost like we have a word for that now.

I’m running out of names to call the redheads. Does peaches suffice?

Contrary to popular belief, I love a good ginger with icy blonde moment. Here’s a little creamsicle do from last summer to brighten these grey winter days ☀️

No Bleach Brunette - let’s talk about it!

Not everyone’s hair needs to be bleached to get the results you are looking for. No bleach colors can not lift as light as bleach can, and almost always tend to lift much warmer than bleach will, so they are best for people who want to stay on the deeper side of color, or who don’t mind seeing warmth. There are pros and cons to not using bleach!

Pros:
• color tends to fade less aggressively and more evenly
• less potential damage to the hair
• helps preserve the moisture content of your hair (big pro for the curly girlies!)

Cons:
• deeper colors and warmer colors than bleaching. If you can’t get light enough you don’t have a lot of wiggle room without bleach moving forward.
• potentially longer processing time/appointment time. I usually process no bleach highlights close to 55minutes depending on desired result.
• doesn’t work as well, if at all, through previously colored hair. Test strands can help decide if this is right for you!

Save this for future reference to see if no bleach colors are right for you 🫶 (also the perfect post to talk about lighting differences in the salon, but that’s another story)

Grey blending on a natural redhead 2025 version! A lot of people found me from Christina’s first reel where we talked about the brown out redheads experience as we get older. This time around we were working with the brown out as well as some maroon lowlights that happened when she moved. We moved a little away from the red we did before into a bit more copper, which helped keep things from looking too dark with a few of the left over darker lowlights in there. My go to color line for permanent redheads has been Tutto hair color for the past 8 years, it has a decent amount of ammonia in the color which has helped with preventing brownout as much as possible by really exposing that underlying pigment up underneath the deposit of the color itself. Big big thank you to Christina for letting me move the camera around us a million times each session 🫶 (pardon the bird calls in the background - I recorded in the great outdoors!)
