CORRECTION: Going For a Cleaner Blonde

 

1 min to read


Nicole Benson (hairby_nicole_benson) of Studio B Hair Colourists, Cronulla, Sydney, Australia, says, "My client came to me with 3 (natural, old level 6 tint, and really brassy blonde) different bands going through her hair with a lot of brassy tones. She explained she wanted a much lighter, cleaner blonde with still a slight deeper root area. Micro foils were the only way to go to get a much lighter result in 1 sitting."
