STEPS
Before
Balayage using Formula A, starting in the nape and using three partings—a center parting, a horizontal parting from ear to ear and any remaining hair. “I used horizontal partings to paint the hair in a V shape, making sure to blend at the root,” says Joie. “I also used ColorTrak Professional Hair Coloring Meche for added lift.” Note: this client has textured, curly hair, so Joie did a rough blow-dry before painting to ensure more precise placement.
Once the back section is complete, move to the front ear area. Apply Formula B, and process for 40 minutes.
Shampoo and blow-dry the hair. Apply Formula C to the roots, melting it down into the ends. “This will create different tones of red and give a soft shadowing to the root,” says Joie. Process for 23 minutes.
Shampoo, then apply Wella Colour Post Treatment for two minutes. Rinse, then gloss using Formula D. Process for 12 minutes, then rinse.
Condition using Wella Professionals Brilliance Treatment For Colored Hair for 10 minutes under a steam dryer.
Rinse and prep for blow-drying by trimming the ends and shaping the hair into soft layers.
Finished look.
