Here Mahoney shares the details for the transformation:

STEP 1: Apply Schwarzkopf Blonde Me and 20 volume (plus Olaplex) in fine highlights throughout the hair.

STEP 2: Using the same formula, apply in a foilyage technique on some of the warmer ends. Process for 20 - 30 minutes removing the foils as needed. Rinse.

STEP 3: Pre-tone the hair with Sunlights Violet shampoo, then root shadow the base with Redken Shades EQ 5n/6na. Gloss the ends with Goldwell 10bs/10v/10n. Process for 20 minutes and then rinse.
