The most perfect creamy blonde ✨

Swipe for some behind the scenes 👉

Achieved using the highest quality products AND by keeping some warmth in the blonde.

Did you know warm tones help to reflect the light adding shine whereas too much ash can make your blondes appear duller.

Some behind the scenes of a blonding session✨

Hair integrity comes before anything during a colour session. There’s no point getting to your dream colour if your hair can’t handle it - this will lead to breakage, dullness and discolouration of the colour over time.

The aim should always be to keep your hair in the best condition possible and using colour & lightener to enhance your hair.

Shiny, healthy hair will always been on trend🫶🏼

Is keeping your hair in good condition important to you when colouring? Or would you rather get blonde af and pray to the hair gods?🤣👀

PSA: Healthy ends make everything look better

Those dry, thin, split ends? We’re letting them go. A clean trim brings back fullness, movement, and the appearance of extra length.

For best results, book a trim every 2–3 months for long hair, or every 4–6 weeks to maintain a shaped style.

When was your last haircut?👀🤣

PSA to all my lived in colour girlies, don’t panic when your toner is processing!!

Hair always looks 2-3 shades darker when it’s processing, it can even look purple or orange depending on the shade!

I love comparing hair wet to dry because it looks totally different.

Trust the process, it’s all part of the blend🫶🏼

Swipe for the full blonding process! ✨💇‍♀️

Did you know silver shampoo can have the opposite effect to what you want? Too much silver or blue shampoo can give a dull appearance to your blonde making it look less bright and creamy.

Sometimes just having a good cut can make you feel like a new women! I’m so here for healthy hair and sometimes a fresh new style is exactly what is needed🫶🏼✨

We cut a lot of length removing some dry ends and previous colour and added some movement with soft layering and bangs.

The end result was giving Rachel Green vibes and we were both obsessed! My tripod broke mid-styling, so sadly no full after shot this time 🫠

Me 🤝 Convincing absolutely everyone I know to go bronde

We added some sparklelights and then toned and melted it all together to create a beautiful soft contrast bronde - it’s giving luxurious & expensive tones🫶🏼

Nia is a typical hairdresser and can never decide on a colour for herself🤣 - bronde is definitely a safe colour if your unsure about being too dark or too light ❤️

Want long, strong, healthy hair? Here’s what actually works: ✨

💇‍♀️ Trim regularly – even a small snip keeps your ends strong and prevents breakage.

🔥 Heat protection is a must – occasional heat styling is fine, but always protect your hair and try to limit it to twice a week (especially if you’re blonde!).

🧪 Bond builders aren’t optional – regular Epres treatments and adding bond builders to your colour help repair and prevent damage.

🎨 Prioritize hair health over colour goals – reaching your inspo pic is great, but not if it leaves your hair feeling like straw. Work with your natural hair, not against it!

🌈 Give your colour consistency – stop changing your colour every season. Desperate for a change? Try switching up your toner or placement. There’s always a way to refresh your colour without jumping from blonde → dark → copper 🤣🫠

Commit to your hair – growth takes time, especially if your strands are tired and stressed.

How many of these are you guilty of?👀👇

Transitioning from blonde to a dark bronde and the result was stunning!

@zoerae colour inspo 🤎

So many blonde clients transitioning to more natural colours at the moment and I’m loving it! One of my fave things to do😆

If you’re debating going to the darker side, I always advise to do it slowly rather than going one dark colour all over in one session. Keep some lightness but adding in dimension is the best way!

Toner maintenance, finished with a cut and bouncy blowdry🖤

Our first appointment was a reverse balayage, this time the fade wasn't as harsh as I expected, so we tweaked the colour with strategic lowlights and glossed the ends for a refresh.

The result is super shiny hair that feels healthier than ever and a colour that will stay low maintenance.

How to make your blonde feel expensive💇‍♀️✨

- Condition | A damaged blonde will never look as good as a shiny, healthy blonde. Add Epres bonding treatment to your colour to prevent damage and book a standalone treatment 3 weeks after your colour.

- Warmth | Don’t be afraid of the warmth☀️ Warm buttery & creamy tones add reflect and shine helping hair appear healthier where ash colours absorb light and can appear duller.

- Extensions | Is your hair naturally fine or do you struggle to grow the front? We can discreetly add extensions in some areas to fill in your hair making it appear thicker and fuller.

- Styling | Styling your hair in between appointments is key to maintaining your look. We can discuss options during your appointment whether it’s tips on creating a bouncy blow or mastering heatless curls.

Warm balayage blends to transform this colour😍

Leaving it looking healthier, shinier and much more natural.

#hairdressernorthwales #hairdressercaernarfon #haircolourtransformation #originalandmineral #hairdressercaernarfon #hairdressergwynedd

A full colour transformation brought this hair back to life with soft, seamless dimension.

Our main aim was to remove the brassiness whilst keeping the integrity of the hair.

We used my dark seamless blends technique to add blended highlights and lowlights keeping it as low maintenance as possible for this new mama🖤✨

Ensured we had a clean lift before toning to ensure the brass won’t return after a few washes.

Hands down my most asked question!!

What is a “lived-in” colour? Let me explain👇🖤

A lived-in colour is a low-maintenance colouring technique designed to grow out seamlessly, unlike traditional colours that can need touch-ups every 6 weeks.

It blends your natural base with hand-painted highlights and lowlights for a soft, seamless result.

The goal? Effortless, dimensional hair that looks beautiful between salon visits—perfect if you love your natural tone and want to enhance it, not cover it.

But is it right for everyone? Not necessarily. Whilst I love a lived-in colour, if you’re craving a big transformation or something bold AND you’re not afraid of regular maintenance appointments - then a different technique may suit you better.

Still unsure if it’s the right fit? DM me to book a free, no-obligation consultation 💌

Bright and blended✨

This bright, blended blonde was created using my Full Head Seamless Blends service. Using a mix of babylights, teasylights, a root tap, and finished with a toner to bring everything together and the result was perfect 🤤

I always recommend working with your natural colour rather than against it (especially with a natural colour as stunning as this!) so the grow-out is much softer and the colour is low-maintenance. The result is a bright but seamless blonde that looks natural and fresh 🙌✨

Using @originalmineral_uk for colour and @epresbeautyuk to protect the hair during lightening.
