Paige came to us at the Aveda Institute Clearwater for a little help with her current look. She arrived with golden blonde hair (levels 7-10) but desired to be more of a medium brown with ashy blonde highlights! She was paired up with one of our student stylists, Kaitlin Parker, in our Salon Concepts class.

Kaitlin started the process by applying a semi-permanent dark red-orange tone to replace the natural remaining pigment Paige had lost from previously transitioning to blonde. After shampooing, she then deposited a level 4 medium ash brown and lifted back to blonde a fine slice partial foil highlight that was toned with a semi-permanent level 9 with light blue-violet to create the ash blonde highlights that were naturally subtle against the brown.

Paige was then handed over to another Salon Concepts student, Jaysyn Landyn, who would complete her brand new look with our Aveda makeup! Jaysyn started with our Inner Light 03 Sweet Tea and 04 Beechwood mineral tinted moisture combination to create a naturally highlighted and contoured facial structure then set it with mineral loose powder. He continued contouring with the 170 plum touch palette on the cheeks and hairline. Paige’s eyes lit up when the Twilight trio eye shadow palette and Cocoa liner was applied. The liner was applied with an angle brush to create a softer look for wearing during the day. Jaysyn then used 01 Black Forest Mascara to define the lashes and the dark brown eye shadow of the Golden Jasper trio palette to fill in the brows and frame the eye. To complete the look, the lips were filled in with Lip Definer and a mixture of 264 Sunkissed Melon and 365 Pink Lotus gloss!

Paige achieved her complete Aveda transformation with the help of these two dedicated and very talented students! She left our Institute with a grand smile on her face and looking more beautiful than ever! What a transformation! Congratulations team! Another life, changed!
