Makeover: Color Melted

Coryn Eyring (@corynneylon_hair.) of Charles Scott Salon (right outside Cleveland, Ohio) says her client "came in with level 2 hair, in her words 'not black', and brassy orange ends. She begged me for an ashy/natural level 6/7 root. She did not want to see any red, which is always a task."
