it’s better to tackle a blonde transformation in one sitting
Emma Fowler shares her colour tips to help Stylists tackle modern in demand Instagram colouring.
We often hear how Instagram and celebrities encourage clients to want unrealistic blonde transformations which can’t be done in a day, BUT…
Emma says, “Like me, when many Colourists were trained to get a client to blonde you would encourage them to do multiple sets of full heads of highlights, because back then our techniques were far more limited and we didn’t have the products that we have today. What I’ve come to realise is that it’s actually better to get your client to blonde in as few bleaching sessions as possible. This can be better for the hair health in the long run and actually it’s more cost effective, if I was going to take the client to blonde in one day it would actually be cheaper than having them split it out across
four full head sessions and that’s exactly how I lay it out at the consultation: there are two options. I can do this in one day and it will cost this amount or we could do it over multiple sessions and it would cost you this, then it’s the client’s choice. I would also explain to them that one bleaching session is healthier for the hair.”
