Nicole Marie Salon

Corrective color transformation ✨
This client came in with very dark box color and wanted to get back closer to her natural shade — without traditional highlighting.
We started with a carefully controlled color-removal/bleach wash to lift out the artificial pigment, then toned the hair to neutralize unwanted warmth. From there, I covered and blended her gray regrowth and custom color-matched her mids and ends for a soft, even, natural-looking finish.
Color correction is all about patience, proper formulation, and protecting the integrity of the hair throughout the process. 🤍

After years of box color and a previous chunky highlight, she was ready for a softer, more blended look. We added teasy highlights, a bright face frame, and cool-toned dimension while allowing her natural gray to start growing in beautifully.
The goal: softer, cooler, more natural, and way less maintenance. 🤍
I absolutely LOVED her results — and so did she! 🥰

Sometimes the biggest transformation isn’t adding more blonde… it’s knowing when to bring your base back into balance. 🤎✨

She came in after previously being heavily bleached, and her hair was ready for a reset. We wanted to stay as light as possible without drifting into gold, so we matched her natural base and glazed everything to create a softer, healthier, seamless blend she loved.

You can highlight and tone all day long, but if the base isn’t right, the blend won’t be right. Hair color is chemistry. Knowing your formulas, understanding the underlying pigment, and knowing why you’re doing each step is what makes the difference.

Sometimes less blonde = a whole lot more beautiful. ✨

This beautiful soul decided it was time for a change. 🤍

After 2 years of wearing two rows of sew-in weft extensions and highlighting her natural hair, today we removed the extensions and started fresh.

We prepped her hair for a color correction, worked through a few blonding services, and finished with a fresh new cut. ✂️✨

The result? Healthy, bright, beautiful hair—and one very happy client! Sometimes taking the extensions out doesn’t mean losing the look… it means discovering how beautiful your natural hair can be. 🤍
