HIGH-LIFT TINT – Best used on virgin hair (non-coloured hair) to achieve a soft, warm / golden blonde tone. It will only lighten hair up to 5 levels from the natural base and it does not remove previous colour
BLEACH – Also known as lightener, can lift and remove previous colour from the hair. It can be used on all hair types depending on the hairs condition up to 8 levels. Best if you are looking to achieve platinum blonde results. Sometimes the hair may need a separate toner to remove unwanted orange / yellow tones and achieve the icy blonde result
Should I be using heat protector?
YES, absolutely! Heat protector helps to prevent your hair from damage caused by using styling tools such as straighteners, curling wands and hairdryers. Using a heat protector creates a protective barrier between your hair and your styling tools, keeping your hair looking healthy, smooth and shiny. Reducing the risk of your hair to dry out, or break. Always protect your hair before using heat – especially when you have coloured or extension hair
