What happens when the hair your client wants literally doesn't exist?
You have to tell them! Ai is lying to clients and it's up to us to tell them the truth.
It's unfair on clients and hairdressers that Ai is so prevalent in our world right now as it makes people chase pertection and we all know perfection doesn't actually exist.
We pivoted and created our autumn leaf 🍁

A little insight in to me and the last 16 years, what’s happened to our family and what comes next……

Someone in my last class said they’re scared to add gold to their formulas.

Fair enough. It feels like the thing that goes wrong.

It’s not. Warmth reflects light — that’s your brightness. It fills the pigment — that’s your longevity. And a bit of gold, even just a -03 or a -32 keeps the tone looking natural instead of flat and one-dimensional.

Why do I add gold to my glosses?

I wanted to achieve cool but rich at the same time here, contradictory right?!

Blonde hair is porous and absorbs any warmth that is added, but we also want to keep it cool. What a conundrum.

I know I need to add some warmth to keep it creamy so my gloss is choice of gloss is 9.6 10.1 and 9.3 (2:2:1)

Adding gold means it fills the hair and evens out the pigment which will allow the 9.6 & 10.1 to do its thing. Remember that ash is the quickest tone to leave the hair so the gold just helps it cling on that little bit longer 😂

I never use a straight ash alone, remember adding a little bit of warmth with just keep that reflect bright and stop your colour looking murky and dull.

Laura is DAAARRRRRKKKK naturally and has more hair on her head than I have on my entire body 😂

She likes to be a pearly ashier blonde which is a challenge because of the amount of dark pigment she has naturally but we got there with the help of my fave colours and k18
