1. Who is the ideal client for this look?

This look is ideal for the client who is not ready or doesn’t want to be all over blonde, but still wants a pop of color. This look is also great for the client with a low-maintenance lifestyle who doesn’t want to be in the salon frequently.

 

2. What maintenance is required for this look?

For at-home care, Daniel recommends Redken Extreme Bleach Recovery Shampoo and Extreme Bleach Recovery Lamellar Treatment to protect against further damage. He also recommends the Acidic Perfecting Leave-In Treatment For Damaged Hair for heat protection. This look is low-maintenance so Daniel sees this client in the salon every six months, with some clients going up to a year.
