MODERN SALON Artist Connective Member Sami Schneider (@samihairmagic) is known for the gorgeous reds she creates on her clients. A skilled colorist, Schneider needs to be sure that she can rely on the color line she uses to do exactly what she needs it to do. That includes letting her formulate very specific colors and tones to offer clients bespoke looks tailored to their individuality.
Schneider has been using a line of color that lets her do just that, with stunning results. With Paul Mitchell The Color, she can formulate the most showstopping reds and provide her clients with the perfect semi-, demi- and permanent colors to suit them—without having to stock multiple color lines.
See below for some of the vibrant red tones Schneider has created with Paul Mitchell The Color.
Schneider created a gorgeous coppery brunette for this client, which turned out so smooth, shiny and vibrant that we’re totally jealous. Paul Mitchell The Color is a low-ammonia formula, with beeswax as a star ingredient for enhanced smoothness and nourishment.
A similar color to the above client, but make it brighter and low-maintenance. This red balayage look will last the client for a good while before she needs a refresh, since The Color can act as anything from a toner to a permanent color depending on how long you let it process.
This is a testament to how bright The Color can get. Vibrant cherry red? Easy-peasy. Matching it with black in a color blocking design really adds to the contrast.
Whether you need a toner, semi, demi, permanent or full grey coverage, this one tube can do it all. Since Paul Mitchell The Color can do everything you need your color to do, there’s no need to carry multiple different color lines. This can potentially save you ample space in your salon and save you from having to keep track of excess inventory. It’s a win across the board.
