EXPRESS BALAYAGE
A great addition to your service menu, Express Balayage uses Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute and Shades EQ Gloss to quickly refresh and blend grown out balayage. By leveraging express color at the roots, you can retouch your client’s balayage in a fraction of the time.
HOW TO:
Start by applying your lightening formula to zones 2 and 3, placing formula slightly higher near the face to frame and brighten your client’s face. During the last 15 minutes of the lightening process, apply CGL10 to zone 1, dragging down slightly for a soft, blended result. After removing color, apply Shades EQ Gloss to add shine and neutralize any unwanted tones.
Change the way you do gray coverage with Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute. This express service is perfect for your clients with 75%+ gray looking for complete coverage. With the ability to transform even the most stubborn grays, Color Gels Lacquers 10 provides 100% gray coverage in only 10 minutes, allowing you to see more clients in one day! Perfect for lunch time drop-in appointments, this service can also be done while other clients are processing.
HOW TO:
Use Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute on zone 1 to cover your client’s grays at the root. After processing is complete, complete the look with a slightly warm Shades EQ Gloss formula to enhance richness and add shine.
The perfect answer to coverage in between blonding services, The Express Root Smudge is an essential addition to your salon menu. Subtly blend regrowth at your client’s roots in only 10 minutes—a big selling point for clients who typically don’t have time for touch ups. To ensure additional revenue, book your blonding clients for an express root smudge ahead of time while they’re in for their initial blonding service.
HOW TO:
To create natural depth at zone 1, choose a Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute formula 1-2 levels deeper than your client’s highlights. Using a bottle application, target regrowth, and blend out gently with your thumb for the smudged effect.
