Caramel, but make it dimensional. 🤎✨

There’s a whole lot of process hiding behind this finished color! We lightened, dried, assessed our canvas, and then went back in with toner to bring everything together and create those warm, caramel ribbons.

The goal wasn’t to cancel out all that warmth—it was to control it and turn it into the perfect caramel tone while keeping plenty of depth between the highlights.

Rich brunette + warm caramel dimension might just be the perfect transition into fall. 🍂🤎

Calico hair, but make it RED. 🖤❤️🤍

This look is all about those bold, chunky pops of deep red, black, and blonde coming together to create that perfectly mismatched calico effect. Every angle gives you a completely different mix of color, which might just be my favorite part. 😍

I used Redken color to create those rich red and dark tones while letting the bright blonde pieces really POP.

Would you try the calico hair trend? 👀

✨ Length, fullness, and a blend that just makes sense.

Extensions aren’t just about adding inches—they’re about creating a result that works with the hair you already have. 🤎

For this install, I used Full Shine Hair , choosing a shade that blended beautifully with her natural color while giving her that extra length and fullness. And yes… I included a peek underneath because a pretty finished result is even better when the install looks good too. 👀✨

Thinking about extensions? A complimentary consultation is the perfect place to start. 🤍

Soft red, but make it dimensional ❤️‍🔥

I love a red that doesn’t have to be super bright to make an impact. This rich, muted red has just enough depth to keep it soft and wearable while still giving you that gorgeous RED in the light. ✨ Using Redken Shades EQ gave us that beautiful dimensional tone with plenty of shine.

Would you go red for fall? 🍂

A little blonde, a little red, a little black & a LOT more personality. 🖤❤️✨

Using Redken we took her from long + one-dimensional to a bold, dimensional mix of blonde, deep red, and black—and added all those layers to really let the different colors peek through. 😍

The color blocking + all that movement together?! So good. ✂️✨

Pink, but make it dimensional. 💗✨

Keeping pops of blonde throughout gives this pink so much movement and lets every layer of the color show off — especially when you peek underneath. 👀

A little extra length, a little extra fullness, and a whole lot of gorgeous hair. 🤎✨

Extensions are such a fun way to add more hair to work with while still keeping plenty of movement and shape through the finished style.

We used Full Shine Hair for this transformation, and I love how much dimension they added to her finished look!

✨ Custom Calico Color Transformation ✨

Calico hair is all about bold placement and high contrast—mixing brunette, blonde, and copper tones for a look that’s anything but ordinary. 🧡🤎

Since we were working over existing highlights, her final result has a softer, more lived-in take on the trend while still showcasing those signature calico ribbons of color.

Created using Redken color for beautiful shine and vibrant, dimensional results. ✨

If you’re ready to step outside the box with a custom color, I’d love to create something that’s uniquely yours!

✨ The Beauty Edit | Issue No. 04 ✨

Summer may be ending, but the buildup it leaves behind doesn’t have to stay.

If your hair has been exposed to chlorine, hard water, sunscreen, or product buildup, a Malibu Treatment is one of my favorite ways to give it a fresh start. It gently removes what your shampoo can’t, helping your hair feel softer, shinier, lighter, and healthier again.

Not sure if your hair would benefit? I’d be happy to help you decide during your next appointment or a complimentary consultation.
