The goal was lighter, brighter, whiter blonde for Jennifer Theriault's client at iStyle XG in Tampa, FL. Wanting to add some dimension to her faded, grown-out locks, Jennifer transformed her client with a full foil makeover. See how Jennifer achieved this 'Pretty in Platinum' look.
STEPS
Section the hair from recession to recession, creating a ‘cat eye’ on the top of the head.
Split the back down the middle and then create a slight diagonal forward section above the ear.
In the back and side sections, take diagonal back slices. TIP: Jen’s go-to technique for the ‘cat eye’ section is strong diagonal slices against the part. This leaves the hair so soft and blended—the eye can’t pinpoint where the color is coming from.
Apply Formula A at the regrowth; apply Formula B on the ends and process for about 20 minutes, or until pale yellow.
Rinse, do NOT shampoo, and apply Formula C for about 15 minutes.
Shampoo with Paul Mitchell Forever Blonde Shampoo and Conditioner.
To prep for styling, use Paul Mitchell Forever Blonde Dramatic Repair, Awauphi Wild Ginger Treatment Oil and Awapuhi Wild Ginger Hydrocream Whip.
Finish this sleek look with Paul Mitchell Express Ion Smoothing Iron, which has Express Ion Complex™ that smoothes the hair from the inside out for healthy, shiny results.
