Show notes for the podcast episode 139
I’m going to start off with the same introduction I shared in my online classes to help you understand the importance of this topic.
You don't get second chances when it comes to hair painting redheads. Clients don't give you a second chance. If you f**k up a client's red or copper they don't come back. They don't refer their friends to you.
Redheads rebook every 6 weeks for colour retouches as opposed to Balayage clients every 6 months.
What is the cost to your salon business if you don't know how to confidently offer hair painting for redheads? It only takes one unhappy redhead to ruin your reputation.
3 FAQs answered in this podcast:
- How do I create a Classic Copper for a “natural-looking” hair colour that clients will love?
- How can I avoid Red hot roots with Copper hair colours?
- How can I get grey coverage for redheads without Root Glow or banding?
