POV: Is your blonde too blonde? 👱🏻‍♀️ .88

Has years of highlights left your blonde looking a little too solid?

My client wanted to keep her blonde bright but felt her highlights had become a little too solid and high maintenance.

So instead of adding more blonde, we actually added depth.

✨ Multiple tones of lowlights
✨ A seamless root melt
✨ Finished with a beige champagne gloss
✨ Kept the money piece bright to frame her face

The result is a softer, more dimensional blonde that will grow out beautifully while still feeling bright.

Would you choose this softer blonde over a full head of highlights?

We never forget SPF for our skin… but your hair needs protecting too!

Swipe to see the transformation ➡️

After a couple of months working abroad, my client’s beautiful colour had faded from the sun, heat, swimming and everyday washing.

Today’s goal wasn’t to change her colour… it was to bring it back to life. ✨

We refreshed her hair with a rich, glossy burgundy that’s full of depth and shine again.

A little reminder…
☀️ UV rays fade hair colour (especially reds!)
💦 Chlorine and salt water strip colour.
🔥 Heat styling without protection speeds up fading.

We never forget SPF for our skin… but your hair needs protecting too!

Using a heat protector, UV hair products and rinsing your hair after swimming can help keep your colour looking fresh for much longer.

Would you believe this is the same hair?

Proof that going slightly darker doesn’t mean losing your blonde. 🤍

This refresh was all about creating a softer, more natural-looking blonde.

We added more depth throughout while keeping all the brightness she loves, creating a blended, dimensional finish.

The result? A blonde that still feels bright, with more dimension, shine and an easier, lower-maintenance grow-out.

Finished with a fresh blunt cut for healthier-looking, fuller ends.

🧴 As always, I added Olaplex No.1 to the lightener to help protect the hair throughout the lifting process.
