"This was one of the most challenging days in my career," says Jacqueline Gilmour, a stylist and extension specialist based in Detroit. "This beautiful client drove in from Cleveland to get a huge color correction."

Her client had been coloring her hair at home, getting it to a nearly black Level 1.  And had been doing this every two-to-three weeks for years.

"She was so sick of maintaining it and wanted to embrace her natural silver," Gilmour explains. "I have been bringing a lot of my clients to their natural silver and have been having great results. With that being said, I have not brought someone from black to silver in one single session but anyone who knows me knows I love a challenge so, of course, I said--let's do it!"

11 hours later..."Niki was such a beautiful person and it was so great to spend the day with her. I think she looks stunning in her new color!"
