MODERN Artist Connective member Marina Sellecchia (@colorbymarina) continually amazes us with her transformations and color corrections. This one is no exception! “This client came to me wanting to be brighter and cooler. As I sectioned her hair, I found spots and bleed marks everywhere especially throughout her crown and mohawk area.”
