The S/S24 Colour Report
Colour by Siobhán Jones
HOW CAN YOU BOOST YOUR COLOUR BILL IN S/S24?
One answer is Lightener Tipping, which refreshes the lightness on the ends of lightened hair.
“When topping up highlights and balayage, it can be familiar only to refresh and lighten the roots. However, after a while, the ends can start to look dull and lifeless. This would be the perfect opportunity to add a service to your bill called Tipping,” says Siobhán Jones, founder of Siobhán Jones Studio and global ambassador for L’Oréal Professionnel Paris.
Applied by lightening already lightened ends between your foils in a freehand method, this will brighten the ends gently as it will be open air. “A technique like this can take only an extra 10 minutes, and allow you to substantially up your bill and give your clients the wow factor!”
