Hairstylist, Jerome, explained exactly what type of cut he gave Leilah, (pictured above). “We brought Leilah’s length a few inches shorter to give more thickness at the bottom and then added some long layers to give more movement and curtain bangs to frame her face.” Then, Jerome used a Davines volumizer spray, “to give body before blow drying with a one-inch size round brush, creating some loose waves.” For the final touches to her haircut, Jerome added a finishing Maria Valentino Hair nourishment serum at the ends to give shine to Leilah’s hair.
Once Leilah was done with her cut, she moved on to Joanna for her color. Joanna explained the situation Leilah’s hair was in, saying, “At the time of the consultation, Leilah expressed how she wanted a little dimension but wanted to keep it low maintenance. She also stressed how much she loved the warm red tones.”
Joanna suggested doing foilyage to a few defined pieces throughout just enough of her hair “to break up her dark natural color.” Confused as to what foilyage is? Joanna explained that it is “a similar technique to balayage where a lightener is applied in a sweeping technique.” Joanna revealed she “didn’t want to over-highlight because we wanted her to read rich brunette, so they were strategically placed.” After her highlights were done processing, Joanna toned her hair with a warm chestnut gloss, “that gave her a uniform rich tone and reflected a youthful shine.”
