  Begin by stripping out the red from her color. “I don’t ever recommend stripping the hair more than twice in one session. If you notice that the texture of the hair is starting to get compromised then you need to stop at that point,” notes George.

  Once the red is stripped, apply Formula B close to the base to add back in a dark golden blonde. Then, highlight and tone over that using Formula A. “Over the next few weeks and months we’ll be refining and perfecting the color. It’s a very time consuming process that needs to be babied,” says George.

  “In addition to damage, whenever you’re doing a major color change you could have a lot of problems to deal with—from fading to dryness of the hair. I always recommend Matrix Total Results Hello Blondie Shampoo and Conditioner because that’s going to keep it vibrant and in the best condition,” shares George. “I also like to follow up with the Matrix Biolage R.A.W. Re-Hydrate Mask to really hydrate the hair and keep the moisture in.”
