Recently Bonnie from Oz Beauty Expert came to me looking for a change, she was bored with her hair and wanted to do something drastic and fun so we decided to go pink!!!

I transformed Bonnie’s brunette locks to pink using Olaplex and Evo Fab Pro colour. We began by pre-lightening the lengths of the hair using Lakme K.Blonde powder mixed with Olaplex making sure not to apply to the roots as we wanted to keep them muted and natural. This was the most intense step of the colouring process, because as we all know when we lighten the hair so dramatically we compromise the health of the hair. I insisted on using Olaplex to prevent damage because we really pushed the hair hard. We pre-lightened the hair twice in a row to test Olaplex and its ability to strengthen and improve the condition of the hair. Without using Olaplex we would’nt have been able to lighten the hair enough in only one day while keeping it healthy.Once the hair had reached the level of lightness required, we rinsed and applied our customised Evo Fabuloso Pro colour. Fabuloso Pro colours are direct pigment, ammonia free, peroxide free semi colours. This was so much fun to do! We used the concentrated red intensifier diluted to create the custom pink colour conditioner. There were so many different shades of Fabuloso Pro Colour Intensifiers to choose from it was really hard to decide exactly which shade to create as the options are literally endless!
We then styled Bonnie’s hair using some beautiful styling products from Evo. I used my favourites, Happy Campers Hard-Working Moisturiser applied to wet hair which I blow-dried and applied Icon Welder Hot Tool Shaper for heat protection and finished with Love Touch Shine Spray which smells delicious!
We couldn’t be happier with the results as you can see! It was spectacular to see such a dramatic hair change with rich and vibrant tones in only one day with the condition of the hair remaining exactly how it was before the lightening process.
