Aftercare Protocol
Dimensional Color & Balayage Care
Extending contrast, shine, and tone between appointments.
Lightened sections are porous and can oxidize into unwanted brassiness from tap water minerals and sunlight.
Essential Rules for Longevity
- 01
Use a shower water filter to prevent hard water mineral deposits from dulling blonde sections.
- 02
Alternate between moisture and protein-building hair masks.
- 03
Book an in-between toner and blowout at the 6-week mark to maintain the perfect tone.
- 04
Always apply leave-in UV and thermal protection before outdoor exposure.
