TGIBalayage

Our model today? The definition of compliant—didn’t move an inch, didn’t ask for a snack break, and totally nailed her angles. 👏🏼

To our attendees: thank you for carving out an hour to elevate your craft. Today we didn’t just learn how to complete a full Visor Foil—we talked about why it matters. These efficient, intentional placements aren’t just about technique. They’re about standing out in a saturated market, delivering consistent results, and building trust behind the chair.

Keep practicing. Keep standing out. And if your mannequin gives you sass? Just remind her who’s holding the brush 😉

Next up: the secret to how to follow a pattern. Tickets on sale now.

OMAHA who wants a Visor Foil? I need one model Sunday 2 pm. Location DM here or on my page .

Second model of the day—executed flawlessly by our lead educator Justine 🔥

She leaned into the brown-on-brown trend, proving bleach isn’t always the answer. Using L’Oréal’s DIA Color in 7.13, she built rich, dimensional tones that made this brunette pop without lifting a thing.

Full head of color in the same time Sophia did a partial… is it always a race? Nah. But it sure keeps it fun 😉

Follow for more dreamy dimension + real-time inspo.

Day 2 at Premiere Orlando 💥 Visor Foil on stage!

Fun fact: Cortney saw us on stage three years ago and saved our class on BOTH days this year so she wouldn’t miss it. When she heard the Visor leaves no gaps, she volunteered to model—on the spot.

Cortney is a cosmetology teacher from North Carolina, and having her in the chair made the demo even more powerful. 💡We want to take TGIBalayage to her students.

Takeaways from today’s class:
• Use natural color as your lowlight
• Smudge as you go—don’t wait for the bowl
• Know when to pull the smudge through the ends
• Shift your highlight placement at the crown for a softer grow-out

Grateful, inspired, and so fired up for what’s next.

Did you catch on stage yesterday? 👀

She’s been using the Visor Foil behind the chair .salon.spa for 4 years—and it’s transformed her business. From client retention to faster placement to customizable colors, she’s living proof it works.

WHO’S YOUR EDUCATOR?

Hi, I’m Sophia Avera—Visor Foil® Artist and founder of TGIBalayage.
Over 200 salons later, it still lights me up every time I walk into a room full of stylists.

I created this education for the artists who feel stuck, the salon owners chasing something more, and the stylists who know they’re capable of big things—but just need the right push.

What I bring to the table:
• Viral placement patterns that actually make sense
• Real talk on burnout, boundaries, and building a business
• And an energy that fills the room and follows you home

If you’ve been feeling the pull for hair education that is memorable—come see what it’s all about.
