Thank you always to the incredible Chess its.c.mac for their trust in my and my art. I brought them back to their firey color palette this time and tried out the up and coming new trend of reptile bleaching, though I will confess I did use foils so im not sure it counts. So much fun having them in my chair and trying new things!
Lifted, treated, and colored with goldwellus

Effortless, chic, and oh-so-French 🇫🇷✨ My French client embraced the beauty of simplicity with her lived-in highlights, adding sew-in wefts for just the right amount of thickness. The result? Timeless, natural elegance. Less is always more! 💁‍♀️
