Tip of the Day: Halo, Dolly!

Color services are super profitable for salons, so whenever we hear of a quick and easy new color service guaranteed to make you lots of cash, we HAVE to share! This idea from Schwarzkopf Professional Fashion Director Nicole Hartmann of Privé Salon in West Hollywood is pure gold. “When I need to do a great color service on the fly, I like to create a color halo,” she says. “I strategically place a panel of color so it has a halo effect—as if the sun is shining on the hair.” To get the look, create a halo-shaped section on the top of the head. Apply a lighter or contrasting color to subsections in the center or on the ends of the halo section. “I like to offset colors,” says Nicole. “So for example, if the client has a Level 5 copper base, I might create the halo with Schwarzkopf Professional Igora Royal COLOR10 4-89—a purple tone that is one shade darker.” ('Tip of the Day' from www.behindthchair.com)
