This majorly blended blonde dimensional look comes from Patricia Nikole, aka @paintedhair to her 704k Insta followers. Check out that before—eep! “This took almost five hours and LOTS of steps 😅” Patricia said. And a message to her clients (and yours!): “Please remember that this is a very expensive and time-consuming process! It also still won’t be 100% perfect and sessions may still be required depending on the amount of color correction that’s needed.”
The Formulas
- Formula A (Roots)
- Oligo Professionnel Calura 7N + choice of developer + b3 Brazilian Bond Builder
- Formula B (Lightener)
- Oligo Blacklight Lightening Cream + 10-volume developer
- Formula C (Toner)
- Oligo Calura 9A + choice of developer
Steps
1. Apply Formula A to the roots to blend the line of demarcation and add some darkness. “I used a Level 7 all over because she had so much banding throughout her hair with zero dimension,” Patricia shared. “She’s also a natural Level 6 who wanted to transition into a look with easier grow-out. I also used a Level 7 considering the fact that her hair would fade significantly and adding lowlights wouldn’t be enough to correct her hair.”
2. Process, rinse, blow-dry and do a session of @paintedhair signature technique to gently lift and balance the blonde.
3. Tone with Formula C, process, rinse and style.
