What a show-stopper! This violet melt carefully crafted for the Guy Tang Hair Battle by master stylist and salon owner Kimemily Pham (@kimwasabi), of Excellent Hair Salon & Spa Inc. in Fremont, California with Kenra Color exudes purple perfection. "We wanted to do something fun (and totally out of my comfort zone) for the Guy Tang Hair Battle," Kimemily shared. See how it's done! Starting Level: “My client had eight-month-old new growth at a natural Level 2," Kimemily revealed. "The rest of the hair was lightened to a level 9-ish 8 months ago."
