Transformation: From Brown to Blonde
Drawing inspiration from the A-list celebrity shade shifters, celebrity colorist Marie Ferro was ready to take on her client Chloe’s request for lighter locks (P.S., Chloe is famous songstress Olivia Newton-John’s daughter!). Marie transformed her from a chocolate brown into a rich buttery blonde. Best of all, this major color shift was featured in New Beauty magazine! “The blonde brought a brightness to Chloe’s face that added softness and glamour to the shoot,” notes Marie.

7“Many times brides don’t know exactly what they are going to feel comfortable with in the way of a style,” notes Marie. “Once the set is placed on the hair, it can be shaped into a style they can see in the mirror as you are moving the hair in shapes. Then you get an immediate agreement on what they feel comfortable with style-wise before you commit to placing the shape in.”
