Formula:

• Moroccanoil® Blonde Voyage Lightener + 10-volume Moroccanoil® Oxidative Cream Developer 

Takeaway Tip: Flip your foil—no seriously! To achieve better blends at the nape, Taylor suggests overdirecting the hair and foiling up. “Overdirecting the hair from where it lives creates a softer, natural blend,” she shares in the video. 

#2: For the Expensive Brunette 

Let’s face it, this trend isn’t going anywhere and we DON’T mind. We snagged BTC Team Member Kaitlyn Brown’s (@hairbykaitlynbrown) rich mocha shade below and a quick toning tip for a blended root melt.

Formulas:

• Root Melt: Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss equal parts 4.0 + 5.3 + Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Gloss Activator

• Lowlight Babylights: Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss equal parts 5.0 + 6.3 + Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss Activator

• Overall Gloss: Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss 9.0 + Clear + Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss Activator

Takeaway Tip: For more control during a root melt application, apply in quadrants. After finishing each quadrant use a brush to blend the hair down into the mids.

#3: For the Platinum Curly Client 

Summer can be a dry time for curls, especially if they are previously lightened. Check out BTC Team Member Tahirah Carter’s (@mrs_tahirah2) moisturizing color formulas for keeping curls hydrated all year long!

Formulas:

• Lightener: Moroccanoil® Blonde Voyage Powder Lightener + 20-volume Moroccanoil® Oxidative Cream Developer 

• Gloss: Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss equal parts 10VB + 8V + Moroccanoil® Color Calypso Demi-Permanent Gloss Activator

Takeaway Tip: How does Tahirah keep client’s curls hydrated throughout the entire service? By choosing products that focus on results and hair health. “The entire Moroccanoil® color line is care-infused. Meaning, everything is formulated with their ProArginine and ArganID System. So I know my client’s hair will stay soft and hydrated from color application to styling,” she explains.

#4: For Clients with Thinning & Fine hair 

For clients struggling from thinning hair or bald spots, salon services can be stressful. As a stylist, offering solution-based services builds not only the client’s confidence, but a trusting relationship. Check out Tahriah’s formula for her client below, and don’t miss her confidence-boosting takeaway tip.

Formula:

• Moroccanoil® Color Rhapsody Permanent Color 8C + 30-volume Moroccanoil® Oxidative Cream Developer 

Takeaway tip: “For clients embracing areas of thinning, it’s important to offer options that make them feel more secure,” explains Tahirah. That’s why she formulated her client’s color to have a more flesh-tone level to make the area less noticeable.
