Spring is around the corner and who doesn’t want lighter, brighter hair? What better way to get your spring look than fresh Foiliage Highlights! If this is you, WE’RE READY! Our stylists, had the privilege to learn all the latest and greatest techniques in Foiliage highlighting from Wella educator and celebrity stylist Dean Roybal.

Dean is based out of Los Angelus, California where he is a renowned hair colorist and educator. His love for people and the hair industry were on full display during his class! Not only did he share great new techniques but he made the class fun with his laid back demeanor. His take on Foiliage highlights was simple and easy to recreate behind the chair. He took his time breaking down each step and pattern in a way that made perfect sense to our stylists. The result was a beautiful, blended foiliage with pops of brightness around the face. Dean styled the hair with Shu uemura, first using their heat activated primer tsuki shape blow dry spray. For control and volume, he used netsu design blow dry cream. If you’re ready for spring like we are, schedule an appointment now to freshen up your look with a foiliage highlight.

We are so excited to have Dean back to see what he brings us next!
