I recently visited Shawn Helton at Sachi for a highlights update and I looooooove the results. I was not sure of what I wanted and my request went something like, "Maybe some blond around the face? But not, like, stripey? Oooooh, I like this picture on your wall of jet black hair!" Needless to say, my "description" of the desired hair color was not exactly helpful. But I knew Shawn would create a work of art -- and he did!!!! When I viewed the final results I was awed by how great the highlights looked -- subtle, yet sexy, yet expensive. In the week since, I have received multiple compliments. Also, styling my hair in the morning is easier than it ever was before! I have no idea why. Blond makes hair more obedient/voluminous at the same time? Whatever Shawn did to the texture, I love it and I love his haircuts!
