Nine Zero One Salon is home to the stylists of a celebrity clientele that includes Blake Lively, Heidi Klum, and Julianne Hough. Images of these celebrities’ blonde hair are plastered all over magazines, Pinterest and beauty blogs, and are often the “hair goals” of Samuel Cole clients. Stylists Nikki Kepley and Kelsey Easley attended the Nine Zero One Academy class “All About Blondes” to enhance their expertise in brightening, toning, and protecting their blonde clients’ hair.

Wella Professional and Nine Zero One Educator Nicole Leal demonstrated lightening techniques and provided individual feedback as stylists practiced her methods. Nikki and Kelsey are eager to use what they learned to further maintain the integrity and the brightness of their blondes.
This class helped me value the versatility and power of using foils to lighten hair. To get a really bright blonde you have to use a foil, versus balayage, and you can also create a natural ‘hand-painted look’ in a foil, too.” – Nikki Kepley
