Hair Color Makeover: Dull Copper to Shiny, Dimensional Brunette

by Anne Moratto | May 30, 2019

Knowing that getting the red out can be a difficult proposition, we are always interested to hear how hairdresser's tackle it. This gorgeous finish by "Mrs. McCoy" @alimccoy_, the owner of Lokal Balayage Bar in Edinburg, TX, went from "red to we're dead." We're slayed by this gorgeous makeover.

"Yes, same person, same day, and a hell of a transformation," says McCoy. "Can it be done to anyone? Absolutely not. WAS IT EXPENSIVE? Hells yeah, hennie!"

HOW-TO

STEP ONE: Foilyage with Schwarzkopf Professional Blonde Me and Brazilian Bond Builder

STEP TWO: Used L'Anza Healing Haircare 5N in between foils to change the base.

STEP THREE: Used Alex Pardashian @alexpardashian Light Gold Drop Formula: Redken Shades EQ 08C + 09AA + 09G "for, literally, 30 seconds."
