You know that feeling when you want the brightness of a traditional highlight, but you absolutely cannot be bothered to live in the salon chair for touch-ups every 6 weeks? Same.
Here is the fix: we’re doing high-impact color right to the root, but using a blend so soft that the grow-out is practically invisible.
Basically, you get that fresh-bright look, but it melts into your hair so naturally that you can go way longer between appointments. It’s high-impact hair with low-maintenance energy.
Come hang with me at Ollin Salon in Flatiron. Let’s get your hair sorted.

The ultimate NYC summer blonde: seamless at the roots, high-impact at the ends. ✨ 👇

We wanted a look that feels completely effortless but still has that head-turning, bright-blonde energy. To get there, I focused on soft, natural highlights melting from the base, paired with bold, intentional pops of blonde « tip outs » for maximum brightness where the sun naturally hits.
For my fellow formula nerds, here is exactly how we achieved this clean, dimensional dimensional blonde:
🎨 THE REDKEN FORMULA:
Lightener: Redken Blonde IQ 9 for those crisp, clean tip-outs and microlight "baby lights"

Root Tap: Shades EQ 09N + 09NB for a seamless, soft transition

Global Toner / Mid-shafts & Ends: Shades EQ 09NB + 09GI + Clear for a perfectly balanced, expensive-looking gold-violet blonde with incredible shine.

Drop a 🤍 if you love this dimension!
