Anna Marelli at Salon Indaco (@annaeleine) of Salon Indaco (@salonindaco), Clemmons, NC, says her client regularly enjoys bright reds and pinks. "She wanted to stray from the vibrant colors and start off the fall/winter season with an icy blonde, with an option to go pastel later," says Marelli. "I explained that it would be a two-day process, and she was willing to split up the appointments. I used great care when foiling, working quickly and making sure to saturate every strand." To maintain her new color and the integrity of the hair, Marelli says her client purchased Forever Blonde by Paul Mitchell Shampoo, Conditioner, and Dramatic Repair for daily use, and Olaplex No 3 Hair Perfector for weekly use. "Her hair was still in fabulous condition after the process, and she was blown away with the results... and she looks fabulous as a blonde!"
