Sarai Speer (@saraihairwizard) of ReHab Hair, Kansas City, MO, says this makeover took 3 hours and she charged $250. Here she shares the details:
Products used: Aloxxi Dimensions .26 (1 step Lift and deposit color)
Trionics Enzyme Developers 20 and 50 volume combined to make 30 volume
Olaplex
Schwarzkopf 8-77, 7-7 and 0-77 additive with Trionics 5 volume
Joico Intensities in Fiery Coral
“This client was referred to me from a friend and fellow hairstylist in Pensacola, Heidi Grether. She wanted bright red/copper hair but didn't want to go the Vivid color route. I didn't want to use lightener on her hair for three reasons:
A- parts were already bleached and some parts weren't
B- I didn't want to go the 'fashion color' route
C- I wanted to create a beautiful red base color that would fade like oxidative color as opposed to Vivids (exposing the pre-lightened color....aka blonde)."
Step 1: Create a beautiful, vibrant red base color using Aloxxi Dimensions Highlighting (1 step Lift & Deposit) color in .26 (Violet red) with Trionics Enzyme Developer (20 volume and 50 volume mixed to make 30 volume) and Olaplex.. For the roots apply .26 with Trionics 5 volume (deposit only). Apply root color then mid-ends. Process for 45 minutes. Rinse then shampoo with L'Oréal Professionnel Absolute Repair. Olaplex 2 for 10 minutes then rinse and dry.
Step 2: Deposit a copper color on top of the red base using Schwarzkopf 8-77 and 7-7 with 0-77 additive with Trionics 10 volume and Olaplex. Apply root to ends and process 30 minutes. Rinse then shampoo with L'Oréal Absolute Repair. Apply Olaplex 2 for 10 minutes, rinse and dry the ends.
Step 3: Apply Joico Intensity in Fiery Coral to ends for 20 minutes. Rinse and condition with Trionics Enzyme Cocktail.
