This stylist chose to lowlight her client's hair, but add brightness with babylights.









Jessica Love (@jessicaa_lovee) of The Woodlands, Texas, revealed her artistic abilities through this color correction by creating an astonishing masterpiece. Love actually approached this client outside of the salon stating that she had a vision. "I got inspired and couldn't help myself but to ask if she'd come in and let me play with her hair," says Love. "We clicked instantly and booked an appointment." Here's the how-to.
Lauren Kovalick (@laurkhair) of Bombshell Salon (@Bombshellsalon), Ellicott City, MD, says her guest "came to us with a grown out ombre that had really harsh lines. Our goal was to create a more organic balayage of blonde and her natural with cool tones running thru the ends.” Here she shares the details for this makeover.
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."
After trying out a subtle red ombre, this client was ready to go bolder and brighter.
Kelsey Brogan (@kjb_hair), a Redken Color certified artist from Mequon, Wisconsin, says she has a "passion for making people blonde!!" Here she had the opportunity to put that passion to the test. "This client came in with previously subtle highlights feeling very dull and wanted a complete makeover." Brogan first cut off about 6 inches and then got busy with color. Here she shares the how-to
Jamie Millmather (@jmillmather) of La La Luxe Salon, Providence, Rhode Island, is a certified Wella master color expert and a Wella brand educator. Client Renee “was referred to me by another hairstylist when she wanted to take the journey to silver hair." Here Millmather shares the how-to.
This client wanted brighter, cooler-toned highlights...but she didn't want to sit in the salon for hours. Here's how her colorist, Sharon So, made her wish come true.
Connor Lange, (@connorlangehair) a stylist at Bob + Paige Salon in Toronto, says "This client in particular is always up for change, and this time she was ready for something dramatic." Details here.
