Achieve Red & Copper Hair without Root Glow

What we'll be talking about
Struggling with root glow, banding, or unpredictable copper tones? In this episode, we’re diving into how you can achieve stunning red and copper hair colour every time—without the costly mistakes or stress!
I carefully studied the art period called the Australian Moderns, which saw a collection of artists painting colourful scales, in a similar way musicians read musical scales to play instruments. This blew my mind! I translated this knowledge into hairdressing lingo, and the rest, as they say, is history in the making.
My world-renowned strategies and techniques have revolutionised how hairdressers achieve consistent, beautiful reds, coppers and strawberry blondes. I realised something was lacking in hairdressers' education through college and apprenticeship years, with many of us being expected to learn reds, coppers and creative colours on paying clients in experimental days. This had to change, and I was the one to do this!
Join me to listen and learn more in episode 186, and let's paint your town red!
