Dena Galanos (@denababyx), a Master designer at Ulta 335, Kissimmee, Florida, says "Clare, rocking this sweet look, is my ultimate funky client! She came in with about 1" of regrowth and previous enlightened hair from our last session where we did blueish tones, which faded to silvers. She always keeps me on my tippy toes and lets me play around with a spectrum of colors. We went for 'bubble gums and cotton candy' pinks, inspired by Gwen Stefani in the 90's." Galanos and Clare have been "going for the punch" for three years now. "I love what she brings in for me."
