Blonde How-tos
Norway has long been known as the land of beautiful scenery, and now we know why—just look at these flawless platinum color transformations from Julie Jakobsen (@juliejakobsenhair) of Glød Salon in Fredrikstad, Norway. Truly. Breathtaking.
Luckily, Julie is a huge fan of BTC, so she was more than happy to share some of her Scandinavian secrets with her friends across the pond! Here are a three MORE of our favorite white-hot formulas. Enjoy the view!
White Smoke
Color Formula
Formula A: 2 parts Wella Professionals Color Touch 10/6 + 1 part 10/0 + 1.9% (1:2)
Application
1. Perform an Olaplex Stand Alone Treatment. “I like to use a cap for highlights when I do a stand alone treatment,” Julie notes.
2. Rinse and apply Formula A. Process for 15 minutes.
“This color was five weeks old and still looked great,” shares Julie. “My client takes great care of her hair. She uses Olaplex No.3 once a week and uses Oribe and Wella products. She only washes her hair 1 to 2 times a week. That’s the secret for retaining cool tones in the hair!”
Total Process Time: 1.5 hours
Total Price: $130
