Sip on this unforgettable brunette recipe!
Sip on this unforgettable brunette recipe. Although natural hair color trends are on the rise, you can still add extra dimension and artistry to turn a forgettable brunette to decadent and indulgent work of art.
Watch the Soft Cognac video below to see how Jamie Pierce was able to help her client achieve the best of both worlds – a balanced, neutral brunette with personalized dimension guaranteed to delight the most discerning palette this holiday season.
Step by Step
- Begin with a Root Shadow applied globally using Color Touch 4/0 + Color Touch Emulsion 1.9% in a 2:1 ratio
- Add alternating Lowlights equal parts Color Touch 5/71 + 5/97 + Color Touch Emulsion 1.9% in a 2:1 ratio
- Section the hair into 2 front panels and 1 back panel
- Alternate horizontal weaves and slices in a bricklay pattern in the back from the nape to the apex using foils to keep your work clean
- Alternate diagonal back weaves and slices in the front panels using foils to keep your work clean
- Process 20 mins
- Rinse and cleanse with Oil Reflections Luminous Reveal Shampoo for smooth, shiny hair, then treat with CM+ Post-Color Express Post-Color Treatment to lock in color.
- Towel dry and apply 1-2 pumps of Oil Reflections Luminous Smoothing Oil
- Rough dry to 75%, finish as desired. Since Jaime’s client had facing framing and long layers, a round brush blow out was show off the rich tones throughout the hair.
- For more reflective results, you can add a couple extra pumps of Oil Reflections to your hands and glide them through your blowout, focusing on the mid lengths and the ends.
