Removing the Brass and Revealing a Perfect Blonde

Neal Malek (@nealmhair) was the 2016 Pravana Show Us Your Vivids Winner and his work continues to be award-worthy.  

This gorgeous process completely transforms the color.  Here's how this self-described "Hair Vangelist" achieved it:

Highlights: Did face-framing highlights using Oligo Professionnel

Roots: Schwarzkopf Igora 5-1

Balayage and hair painting in between foils and all over with Oligo  Black Light Clay Lightener using EmBee Meche to isolate the painted pieces

Toned:  Schwarzkopf 9, 5-1 + 9, 5-29 + 0-11 (using their 7 volume on wet hair)

Used  Brazilian Bondbuilder in every color bowl.
