Who feels me? Poor stylists are fighting for their lives out here with level 5 clients booking “lived in blonde” and expecting an 8-hr influencer transformation.

Thanks social media.

As a chronic over-foiler, I’m learning to embrace “less is more” when it comes to creating bright blonde pops. This transformation was achieved with just 13 foils in the back, 7 foils on each side around the front hairline for a soft money piece, and 4 foils on each side of her part.

When I first started doing hair I was only taught the “Mohawk.” We sliced everything and weaved the hairline and crown.

Then we evolved and I was taught horizontal placement but only with weaves so we didn’t create walls of light.

Now, we understand that you can combine and and all of those placements but you have to understand why.

I love a sliced Mohawk…but only on lighter bases and full foils. Dark bases + a partial results in black/white stripes.

I also love sliced horizontal placement…but you have to understand that a wall of blonde is HIGH MAINTENANCE! Nearly as high as a platinum card unless you’re root melting.

So what’s the best in between you ask? Diagonal slices + weaved hairline. Blended, medium coverage withought the stripes, & less maintenance than horizontal.

Isn’t blonding fun. :)

Slow & steady

The refinement process is just as important as the wet relationship.
