Balayage is a coloring/highlighting technique in which the dye is painted on in a sweeping way as to create a graduated, natural-looking effect.
Ombre’ is a technique that uses color and teasing to create a graduated look to go gradually from dark to light. And the color generally melts into the next shade seamlessly.
Color Correction really takes 10 times the skill that perfect color application does. Specialized training and experience over time has really honed my skills in this area. It does truly come down to knowledge of the color wheel and science for sure!
The DevaCut was created by the Devachan Salon and is a special technique for cutting curly, wavy or coily hair. The cut is more about making each curl look its best and not just a way to “tame” the curls. The cut is created on dry hair so I can see how each curl will fall and each individual curl is shaped. I have been using these techniques for a while, but have only been certified for a little over a year. I am continuing my education with DevaCurl constantly!
Simple to complicated, Highlights can take on limitless possibilities. Chunky to Medium Weave to Fine Weave to Baby Lights. From Partial to Full to Mini to Visual Placement. Beautiful and Classic to Trendy and Funky to Modern and Sleek! Nothing is off limits!
Olaplex claims to “reconnect broken disulfide sulfur bonds in the hair.” The treatment is a bond multiplier, which limits damage to hair during or after coloring. A lot of people with damaged hair have managed to get amazing results from Olaplex. I also use it to reduce Frizz in curly hair clients. It is an amazing addition to color or perms or used as a stand alone conditioning type treatment!
Cut and Color is the Basics and the foundation of my entire career! Always changing trends will continue to push me to update my techniques and abilities! I Love my craft, and I will always push to keep abreast of the latest and greatest!
