How perfect is this pink, pastel bob from colorist Walker Olson (@walkerwerkshop), of Bespoke Salon in Scottsdale, Ariz.? This was Walker’s first feature on behindthechair.com’s Instagram, and it received more than 10,000 likes! Here’s how she did it.
Starting Level: 10, with 1 inch of Level 8 regrowth
STEPS
Using Formula B and classic balayage sectioning, paint through any pre-existing warmth and uneven tones in the midlengths through the ends.
Apply Formula A using a global retouch technique, getting as close as you can but avoiding direct contact with the scalp.
Process until visually even (about 40 minutes), checking in with your client every 5 to 10 minutes to ensure scalp comfort. Rinse with cool water and lightly shampoo, then rough-dry the hair completely.
Resection for another global application. Apply Formula C to retouch area. Next, add 1/3 tube Clear to Formula C and apply to midlengths and ends. Process for 10 minutes, and rinse with cool water. Do not condition.
