| - I had a hair color disaster in December at a different salon that permanently altered the color and health of my 3 feet-long, blond hair. This was with a highly rated, very certified Aveda Educator and so-called color specialist (Angie Perino Nelson), so I was having trust issues about my hair. That's why I sought several consultations in December and January in the Phoenix Valley. Of all of consultations I had, the BEST one was with Keith N. at Salon Tru-Scottsdale. He gave me the most detailed, conservative advice. I really appreciate that and believe that says something about a person and his artistry.
He gave me some straight talk about the condition and color of my hair. He assessed my hair and advised me to that I will need a good trim and a root-to-tip, color deposits-only color correction alternating/adding 2 each darker shades of blond. He said my hair looks really fake, unnatural, & too yellow, and that the crown was too light for my coloring. (My thoughts exactly). He suggested I wait at least 6 weeks in order to get some roots so he can reformulate. Then I'll have to go a bit darker to look natural again.
I have since decided to wait about a year before moving forward with a root-to-tip correction. I'd like to see how much of this Light Yellow Orange (Aveda's LYO) combo 10-N semi-permanent toner washes out and how light--or white--my hair will get before I do a final, root-to-tip correction.
I will update this review in the future once I get my final, permanent color correction.
