Why is Goldwell a leader in every hair product category? Find out as stylist Shonda Harvey-Gale explores the brand.


Even though stylist and extension specialist Shonda Harvey-Gale (@shondasharee_) doesn’t identify as a colorist, she’s still got the chops for color, and she still likes to experiment with the best of the best color lines out there. It’s even better when her chosen brand offers world-class styling products as well.
She’s found that and more in Goldwell’s wide array of offerings. This MODERN SALON 100 alum runs her own independent business from her salon suite, so she needs to be able to rely on the brands she uses to have everything she needs. See some of her results with Goldwell’s color and styling products below.
If you need a lightener with strong lifting power, but one that will still keep your client’s hair strong too, Goldwell’s LightDimensions series is for you. Harvey-Gale particularly enjoys the serious lightening effect of their SilkLift powder lightener, including how it leaves her client’s natural texture intact. 9+ levels of lift is no small feat.
This one makes us hungry! The subtle pop of strawberry color that Harvey Gale achieved on these extensions is everything, and very pleasing to the eye. Goldwell’s @Pure Pigments are so fun to play and experiment with to add a bright punch to your color formulas.
Goldwell prides itself on carrying everything you’ll need to make your clients’ hair look and feel fantastic. This includes their full range of haircare and styling products, which Harvey-Gale even uses on her own hair for super quick refreshes! The best part? These products are made for all hair types.
