Aloxxi Artistic Advisor Marilyn Cole introduces a versatile color technique for a flexible lifestyle.

“This technique was created around wanting to deliver the wearable edge that people are craving today,” Cole says. “This show-stopping color technique, called Mainstage, delivers a bold, beautiful yet edgy finish. The burst of color complements the rich base tones in the model’s hair. Ultimately this technique allows clients to explore the fun that can be had with color while keeping it comfortable for their day-to-day lives.”
