HOW TO: Just Rosey, Going Pink On a Severe Ombre
Masey Castro @Masii.cheveux, a stylist at Butterfly Loft in Encino, California, @Masii.cheveux loves color corrections and "big finishes"! How wonderful to get to exercise her talents on this super ombre client looking for something new.

Here she offers the how to for her rosey pink client:

FORMULA:
lifting formula: Goldwell Oxycure Platin lightener 20vol (for regrowth)
toner: Colorance 10P +10V =parts
pink: Pravana Vivids Pink/Rose, diluted with conditioner

HOW TO overview:
Lighten her roots then toned it to get yellow out, applied pravana Vivids pink/Rose on wet hair diluted with conditioner. Cut and styled with soft waves to go with the delicacy of her color

Step 1: First apply Goldwell Oxycure Platin bleach with 20 volume developer to the root area.

Step 2: Process for 45 minutes, lifting to a level 9. 

Step 3: Shampoo (twice) and condition the hair.

 Step 4: Tone to cancel yellow with Goldwell Colorance 10p &10v equal parts. Process for five minutes.

Step 5: Towel dry and apply Pravana Pink/Rose roots to ends on damp hair.

Step 6: Process under heat for 30 minutes.

Step 7: Rinse and condition the hair.

TIPS from Castro on maintaining the color:

- Tell client to wash hair as infrequently as possible (every 3 days or even 1 a week).

- Advise client to use cold water (if possible) and color safe shampoo and conditioner.

- Have client come in every 4 weeks for a root touch up to prevent band lines and for an all over color tone.

- A little hint: I put a whole tube of the Pravana Pink in her conditioner so when she conditions it slightly tones.
