It can be hard to both add dimension and cover gray
at the same time. Clients can be left with solid, flat-
looking color, and who wants that? The Wella Professionals
Luxelights technique, created by Wella Professional Global
Artists Matthias Herzberg and Renya Xydis, allows you to
upgrade your gray coverage service and take years off your
client's look. This technique enriches the root area with a soft
shadow effect while revealing natural highs and lows within
the lengths and ends, giving the illusion of natural, sun-
kissed, youthful hair.
THE FORMULAS:
A. 30g BlondorPex + 45g Welloxon Perfect 6% Developer
B. 30g Koleston Perfect 55/02 + 30g Welloxon Perfect 6% Developer
C. 10g Koleston Perfect 7/18 + 10g Koleston Perfect 8/97 + 20g
Welloxon Perfect 1.9% Developer + 20g Post Color Treatment
Step 1: Divide the hair into five sections.
Step 2: Weave out large sections of hair, four
foils per quarter. Paint away from the
root with Formula A.
Step 3: Deepen the root area with Formula B.
Apply just over the line of regrowth.
Develop.
Step 4: Rinse well. Use WellaPlex #2, shampoo,
and apply Blondor Blonde Seal & Care.
Step 5: For a luxury high-shine finish and
soft tone, apply Formula C from root
to tip on damp hair. Develop and
rinse until water runs clear.
