Typically, balayage is open-air lightening, which results in a slightly softer lift. However, you can try the clear sheets for separation, additional lightening and visible control. 2.

Express Touch-Up Gradually layer up Blondor through each strand. Go light and gently feather the pre-lightener onto the hair instead of loading on too much at once.

Up to 85% naturally derived ingredients* *from 80-85% depending on the shade Features and Benefits 7/Concern It’s vital to add enough natural to your client’s target shade. This is how you ensure the finished look appears flawlessly natural. The Koleston Perfect Pure Naturals family features a spectrum of warm and cool tones, each offering up to 100% coverage of greys. Not sure how much to use? Add in ⅓ of a Pure Naturals shade on hair that’s 30%-50% grey and ½ of a Pure Naturals shade for hair that's 50%-100% grey. 2. Cover Stubborn Greys First Try: Your favorite Blondor product for highlights, Blondor Freelights for balayage or Color Touch to create lowlights. For the softest finish, sweep Blondor away from the crown, so the roots here remain natural. This ensures Illuminage looks sun-kissed and seamless without changing your client’s color too dramatically. Top tip, partner with Illumina color to lighten the hair up to 3 levels and achieve soft transitions. 5. Build the Brightness Up However, there are two key differences between Illuminage (above right) and balayage (above left), and the first is in the placement of those lighter, brighter ribbons. While a traditional balayage technique starts closer at the root and creates an overall lighter look, Illuminage is designed to lend a more luminous, lit-from-within, sun-kissed effect. How, exactly? By using Blondor Freelights to contour and accentuate the face-framing layers, as well as gradually lighten the lengths and ends for a softer halo of brightness.In the hair, that is. When you’re lightening sections around the hairline, elevate the hair slightly up and away from the face to create tension, which allows you to apply color more evenly. Then, sweep the color in fine motions for highlights that truly sparkle. 4. Keep the Crown Natural
