My copper lasted eleven weeks. Eleven! Every other salon's copper was gone in three.
Hannah S.Ember copper
Walker took me from mousy brown to burnt orange in one session and my hair still feels like silk.
Priscilla N.Burnt orange vivid
Simone colored my curls one by one. Every coil catches the light. I've never loved my hair more.
Ama O.Copper curls
The studio glaze every six weeks is my favorite hour of the month. Tea, north light and shiny hair.
Jo R.Studio glaze
Adaeze fixed a box-dye red that three salons wouldn't touch and turned it into a beautiful copper.
Leigh A.Red-to-copper conversion
Warm grey blending! My silver now looks like it was planned. I feel ten years younger and completely myself.
Patricia M.Grey blending in warm tones
