The bold, plum and rose, red wine hues give depth and dimension to the asymmetrical bob shape of the cut. This is achieved with offset zig zag sections and under color placement, creating a beautiful spin on traditional dimensional color. But wait, there’s more! Zak is super excited to share with you some of TONI&GUY’s new franchising information for those who would like to own a TONI&GUY Salon!
