Haley Ferreira (@mermaidhairs), a stylist at Cutting Loose salon in Sarasota, Florida, decided to update guest Shawna's rich chocolate ombre by adding some caramel highlights. "Shawna is all about low maintenance hair color," says Ferreira. "When she tells me this, the word 'sombre' automatically popped into my head!"
Here she offers the HOW TO:
Step 1: Apply Paul Mitchell The Color 4N + 5NB blended with 20 volume developer, dragging the color halfway through to the midshaft.
Step 2: Process for 35 minutes.
Step 3: While the color is processing apply Paul Mitchell Lighten Up with 30 volume developer using a balayage technique into her base color. "I used the 'V technique' so more energy is at the bottom of her hair," says Ferreira.
Step 4: Process to level 8 (about 15 minutes).
Step 5: Shampoo with Paul Mitchell's Awapuhi Wild Ginger sulfate free shampoo.
Step 6: To tone, apply Paul Mitchell PM Shines 8NB to the lightened ends. Process for 15 minutes at the bowl.
Step 7: Shampoo again with Paul Mitchell's Awapuhi Wild Ginger sulfate free shampoo and condition with Awapuhi Wild Ginger cream rinse
