Vivid color is more than just putting a bright shade over lightened hair; it takes an understanding of color theory, formulation, lifting patterns, porosity, curl integrity, and the limits of the hair itself.
Andrews recent client did not have a good experience in coloring when they went to another salon to get the vivid color they wanted. No fear, vivid expert Andrews is here 🙌🏽🥰
After uneven lifting and damage, we focused on curl integrity, K18, and strategic color placement to create this lilac ombré safely. 💜
Healthy hair first. Dream color second.
👻💀🎃 Spooky season is upon us. What’s your favorite horror or Halloween movie?
Time to book your nail appointment for the Halloween season. Bring in your spookiest or scariest nail inspo & let Katie Sue/Kitty make the magic happen.
