OSMO Blonde Elevation Step by Step with OSMO Ambassador Becky Sutherland, Lush Hair Salon in Langley Park, Durham

Step 1

Before look

Step 2

Bleach the hair using one scoop of OSMO Ikon Blonde Elevation Premium Violet Lightening Powder and gradually add two scoops of 20 vol OSMO Ikon Cream Developer. Add 3-5 pumps of the OSMO Ikon Blonde Elevation Green Colour Additive to remove any unwanted red tones.  Note: The Blonde Elevation Toner colour you will need to use depends on the hair colour tones you would like to neutralise.

Step 3

Begin bleaching from the nape of the neck taking small sections and saturating the hair to ensure full coverage and an even lift. Beginning at the back will allow an equal colour removal across the whole head and allows for easy rinsing after developing.

Step 4

Leave the hair for 40 minutes to allow the bleach to work its magic! Wash the bleach out thoroughly using OSMO Super Silver Shampoo, recommended to remove any unwanted yellow tones.

Step 5

Pre tone the hair by using 15 grams of OSMO IKON Intense Pearl, 5 grams of OSMO Ikon Lilac Pastel Metallic with 20 grams of OSMO IKON 5 vol Cream Developer. Apply the toner to the hair at the basin to give a clearer base to work with.

Step 6

Take fine sections from the head and paint the root area using 20 grams of OSMO IKON Blue Corrector and 20 grams of OSMO IKON Lilac Pastel Metallic mixed with the OSMO IKON 5 Vol Cream Developer. Blend down the dye to ensure no harsh lines are left in the hair. Section the hair by lifting the top section up and layer to create a veil affect.

Step 7

Take diagonal sections from around the head and decide your colour order and pattern by alternating them. For the pink, use 15 grams of OSMO IKON Strawberry Pastel Metallic mixed with 15 grams of OSMO IKON 5 Vol Cream Developer. For the blue, use 15 grams of OSMO IKON Aquamarine Pastel Metallic mixed with 15 grams of OSMO IKON 5 Vol Cream Developer. And for the silver, use 15 grams of OSMO IKON Ice Pastel Metallic mixed with 5 grams OSMO Colour IKON 10.2 and 20 grams of OSMO IKON 5 Vol Cream Developer. Leave to develop and then wash thoroughly.

Step 8

Finish the style by running the OSMO Blinding Shine Serum through wet hair, blow-dry smooth and then curl using a straightening iron or curling wand.
