close formula

OK, so this is definitely an example of a picture that’s worth a thousand words. This gorgeous transformation comes to us from Shannon Keel (aka The Hair Doo Chick), who is officially a super fan of Kenra Color® Creatives. Shannon wanted to test the longevity of the color line, so she overlaid three different shades and documented how well the color evolved during the course of four weeks. Needless to say, both Shannon and her client thought it got even better as it faded!

 

And if that’s not enough, Shannon’s client shampooed her hair EVERY day with hot water! Here’s how Shannon achieved the gorgeous color melt that got more and more beautiful each week!

 

Starting Level: 7/ faded to a light pink hue from a previous color
