Preserving Your Cut Structure & Mirror Shine
To preserve the color and prevent fading, it’s essential to use a color-protecting shampoo and conditioner.
I recommend using a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to maintain the moisture and color of the hair.
For those with color-treated hair, I recommend getting regular trims every 6-8 weeks to prevent split ends and breakage.
This will also help maintain the color and vibrancy of the hair.

Preparing your core essentials and workspace before you begin ensures smooth, consistent results from start to finish.
