Anything from an abstract painting to a zigzags to a jar of marbles can inspire a colorists creativity. For this look, Wella Professionals Top Artists, Mark DeBolt and Brenton Lee took inspiration from a watercolor painting of marble. “I was inspired by the swirling tones, one giving way to another, creating dreamy, swirling, natural hues,” notes Mark. To help bring their artistic vision to life, they turned to the revolutionary new Wella Professionals Color.id, which “beefs up” Koleston Perfect and Illumina formulas. This allowed them to paint color on the hair—without fear of bleeding or running. Learn more about Wella Color.id! (more…)
