And let me tell you, they LOVED it! Melissa provided easy to use techniques for our stylists with a practical in salon application. She made something hard seem easy!

Summer is around the corner and who doesn’t want lighter, brighter hair? What better way to get your summer look than a fresh balayage highlight! If this is you, WE’RE READY! Our stylists, had the privilege to learn all the latest and greatest techniques in balayage 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 balayage highlights was simple and easy to recreate behind the chair. He took his time breaking down each step and formula in a way that made perfect sense to our stylists. The result was a beautiful, blended balayage with pops of brightness around the face. Dean styled the hair with Oribe’s Maximista for control and volume and finished with Oribe’s Apres Beach Spray for soft, glossy texture.
