beautyheaven summer hair overhauls

There’s one thing that gets the beautyheaven team very excited.
Chocolate. Well okay, maybe there are two things: chocolate and summer.
Summer is a time of the year that symbolises fun, laughter and relaxation; a time when people put their worries to one side and just focus on the ‘now’. So when the beautyheaven team had the opportunity to experience a highlighting colour service designed to unleash the summer, well – they just couldn’t say no.
What is Wella Professional BLONDOR Freelights?
Think about how your hair, really picture it in your head. Now, imagine what a sunkissed version of your hair would look like. You got it? That’s what Freelights does. More than just a hair colour, Wella Professional BLONDOR Freelights is the ultimate highlight colour service if you’re after summer-ready locks.
The treatment uses a freehand highlighting technique to provide up to seven levels of colour lift to hair. This technique is completed with an innovative formula that contains polymers, which form an adhesive mass that won’t run or bleed onto other parts of your hair once applied – hence no need for foils! The best part is, the technique can provide a number of different results, meaning you can achieve your perfect look in far less time than you’d normally spend at the hairdresser.
Wella wanted to help the beautyheaven team get their hair summer ready and invited us to a special day at Valonz Haircutters - one of Sydney’s premier salons with an impressive celebrity clientele - to try the service first hand. Our team had a very diverse range of summer looks created for us, and remarkably the product suited every single one of us!
But don’t take our word for it, see the results yourself below!
Lauren’s hair overhaul
The aim: to lift the ends of her red hair with blonde tones that blend seamlessly and provide shimmery lift.
The best products to care for her new look: Wella System Professional Repair Shampoo, Wella System Professional Repair Conditioner and Wella System Professional Repair Mask.
Olivia’s hair overhaul
The aim: To add sunkissed highlights through the ends of my hair and eliminate the red tones.
The best products to care for her new look: Wella System Professional LuxeOil Keratin Protect Shampoo, Wella System Professional LuxeOil Keratin Restore Mask and Wella System Professional Luxe Oil Reconstructive Elixir.
Rosie’s hair overhaul
The aim: to blend her dark roots into her already blonde hair and add a bit of oomph to her all over colour.
The best products to care for her new look: Wella Enrich Moisturizing Shampoo Thick, Wella Enrich Moisturizing Conditioner Thick, Wella Enrich Moisturizing Treatment Thick and Wella Enrich Moisturizing Balm.
Isabelle’s hair overhaul
The aim: to add honey and caramel tones to the layers of her normally brunette hair to add dimension.
The best products to care for her new look: Wella System Professional Smoothen Shampoo, Wella System Professional Smoothen Conditioner and Wella System Professional Smoothen Mask.
Natalie’s hair overhaul
The aim: to achieve a natural all-over brown colour, free from red tones. Highlights would provide some depth and texture to make her fine hair look thicker.
The best products to care for her new look: Wella Professionals Brilliance Shampoo Fine/Normal, Wella Professionals Brilliance Conditioner Fine/Normal and Wella Professionals Brilliance Treatment Fine/Normal.

I love the most Lauren's and Rosie's transformation, since my fave hair colour (that I manage at times myself as well) is in between...sort of gold/copper blonde.
Other are super nice changes as well, love the hairstyles! so glam!

Love the new hair colours and styles, though my fave would have to be Rosie's which seems the most dramatic/different.
