HOW-TO: Get the Formula for This Grown-Up “Lizzie McGuire” Blonde

Nikki Lee (@nikkilee901), the co-owner of Nine Zero One Salon in Los Angeles and co-creator, with business partner and friend, Riawna Capri (@riawna) of the IN COMMON BEAUTY styling and care line and the Beauty Coach education program, was absolutely thrilled to be working with actress Hilary Duff. And this coming from a stylist who has worked with many celebrities.

“Never in a million years did I think I would be doing Lizzie’s color!" Lee shared. "Well, dreams do come true! Thank you Hilary Duff for trusting me to create the perfect blonde for the next chapter of Lizzie Mcguire! And thank you Joico for helping my creativity flow effortlessly!

"When creating Lizzie’s new blonde it was important to Hilary that it was different from what Lizzie had in the past, and also a little different from what Hilary would normally have. Lizzie’s next chapter blonde is a burst of sunshine! Lighter throughout the ends and around the face, with some dimension throughout the top."

Lee also supplied her formula, "for all you stylists out there whose clients are going to want to look like Lizzie."

FORMULA

STEP ONE:

Full head highlight using Joico Blonde Life Powder Lightener with 30 Volume LumiShine Developer at the root, 20 volume through the mid-shaft, and 10 volume through the ends when needed.

STEP TWO:

After she lifted to a pale yellow, Lee did a root tap about 2 inches out at the bowl using Joico LumiShine Demi-Permanent Liquid 6N with 5 volume LumiShine Developer.

STEP THREE:

For her hair line and a bit of the mid shaft, Lee used Joico LumiShine Demi-Permanent Liquid equal parts 6N + 8N with 5 Volume LumiShine Developer.

TONER:

All-over toner was Joico LumiShine Demi-Permanent Liquid 9NV + 10N + 10SB with 5 Volume LumiShine Developer. This was applied while the root tap was still on and allowed to process together for 15 minutes.

TREATMENT:

 “I was able to achieve this blonde using Joico’s Blonde Life Lightener, and was able to lock in the color and keep her hair healthy by using In Common’s Mended Sea Treatment Enhancer for strength with the In Common Velvet Cloud Mask."
