Blondor Freelights: What Is It? Why Do You Need It?
By: Jaclyn Harwood
Not all lighteners are created equal. Clay lightener, balayage and open-air techniques have revolutionized the world of hair coloring, offering a fresh approach to achieving natural sun-kissed results. Blondor Freelights lightening powder is a clay lightener, praised for its smooth consistency and gentleness. An advanced tool to include in your blonding arsenal and a game-changer when it comes to balayage application. Soft, seamless, multi-dimensional blends have never been easier to achieve… until now. Follow along as we discover Wella Professionals Blondor Freelights and why you need it in your salon.
WHAT IS IT?
Create foil-free sun-kissed looks while releasing your creativity with a new level of precision and accuracy. Wella Professionals Blondor Freelights is a dust-free lightening complex with up to 7 levels of lift. Actifuse® Technology allows activated polymers to link together and form a flexible and adhesive network to keep the product in place, delivering a smooth consistency and an advanced level of precision with reduced swelling.
HOW DO YOU USE IT?
Wella Professionals Blondor Freelights is the perfect tool for off-scalp and open-air blonding applications. Mix Blondor Freelights with Blondor Freelights Developer in a ratio of 1:1 to 1:3 in a non-metallic bowl. (Our favorite consistency is 1:1.5. Give it a try!) Apply to the hair utilizing your favorite free-hand techniques and customized placement.
BALAYAGE + OPEN AIR APPLICATION
Hand-painted highlights are one of the most sought-after services in the salon and elevate the salon experience to the next level. Show off your artistry and custom color with Blondor Freelights and refine your technique with a few balayage tips:
SECTIONING: Divide the hair into clean, manageable sections and visualize the final look. Remember, ‘light’ is just as important as ‘depth’ in your balayage. Be strategic with your placement.
V-SHAPE PAINTING: When applying, use a V-shaped or W-shaped application for a soft, blended transition and natural result. Keep your brush horizontally parallel to the hair surface. With intention, lay the lightener onto the section with a sweeping motion and create desired brightness within the look.
SATURATION: Even saturation throughout the application will ensure consistent lift and seamless results. Place the product on the hair with purpose and remain mindful of surrounding light and dark sections to maintain beautiful dimension.
GLAZING: Complete the blonding session with a custom glaze for your salon guest with Wella Professionals Shinefinity Zero Lift Glaze. An acidic, demi permanent, zero ammonia, zero silicone formula that adds shine, conditions hair, balances color and delivers unforgettable salon results.
Step away from old habits and release your creativity with a new level of precision and accuracy. The consistency, adherence capabilities, advanced technology, gentleness and suitability for a controlled lift, makes Blondor Freelights the top choice for balayage application.
