Balayage, Deva curl, High Lights, Low-Poo Transformation, Wavy Hair

Alison

Alison was ready to take some of the length off her hair and touch up her Balayage highlights.   She fights the frizz in her hair and often straightens it so it isn’t frizzy.  I convinced her to try a DevaCut to bring out her natural waves and promised I would teach her how to do it herself.

Since she likes a lot of blond, but wants it natural looking, we added babylights with Logics ColorCremes High-Lift Tint between the balayage.

Her hair looks uneven here, but trust me it isn’t, it is just how it is laying in the picture (and it bugs me).

 

Alison was surprised at how much natural wave she has.

Michelle

Michelle is adorable.  She comes in regularly to color her roots with the Logics Color DNA  System by Matrix.  Logics is a fabulous color line.  It comes in ColorCremes Permanent and Imprints Demi-Permanent options.  On Michelle we use the ColorCremes; they produces natural looking colors that last.  Michelle has almost no fading, so much so, that we just do her roots each time, this preserves the integrity of the hair and as a bonus her high lights last for months before we retouch them, just the grow out.   She also avoids color build up on the ends that can make colored hair look fake and lifeless.

Here you can see her gray, she goes about 6 weeks between  appointments and by the end is using a darkening powder on the roots for a little camouflage.

The result is seamless color that shines and reflects the light with complete gray coverage.

After seeing the post about Nicki, she decided to bite the bullet and get a Deva Cut for her natural waves.  We were able to shape her hair and style it to enhance the waves and show off her highlights.  Can you believe we touched up her high lights 3 months ago?

To style her hair, we applied DevaCurl light defining gel and scrunched and used a few clips at the roots for lift.  Then she sat under the dryer to simulate air drying.  You can’t get easier than that.
