Born to be Blonde
If you missed Stacy Keibler’s head-turning appearance on the recent “suit” episode of “How I Met Your Mother,” you must go download and watch it right now!

When it comes to color, the main thing we do is maintain a true color, in this case blonde, without tipping over the edge into the realm of too yellow, too bright, too solid or too unnatural. To do that, we highlight the hair with a really fine weave of alternating colors.

The most important thing is to ‘brick lay’ through the crown, through the part and the bangs. This means that the way you place foils are like bricks, they overlap. The foils are not in big rows. That’s really how we’re able to get it to look seamless.

Depending on the season, we may add more lowlights for a winter blond, then remove lowlights altogether in the summer. The important thing is to make everything look natural.

Once we’ve achieved your perfect color, we can keep it that way each time. New Attitude Stylists are very careful when going back over the head at later appointments, making sure not to relighten previously lightened hair. It is important to know that when you keep applying color over and over again, breakage occurs.
