Jenn Malone (@jmalonehair) at Agence Salon, San Dimas, California, says her client "had 85% virgin hair. Her goal is to be a 'rooty' platinum blonde while still keeping the 'lived in' look. My main goal was to get her to her desired color, while still maintaining the integrity of her hair. Patience is the key in achieving this!"

Formula c: 4N+ 6N+7V Redken Shades EQ 

Formula d: 9P+9V Redken Shades EQ

Step 1: Micro babylights throughout the entire head, to create a lighter base and closer back to back foils in the front to create the face framing money piece using formula A.  

Step 2: Balayage the hair that's left out of the babylight foils with formula b. (In foils). Process for 45 minutes.

Step 3: Shampoo the hair using Oribe Gold lust shampoo, without conditioning and towel dry to prep the hair for the shadow root.
