 Hey curl friends, I'm Bianca Renee and you're watching Bianca Renee today and today We're gonna talk about this new hair color This is the lightest I have ever Gone every single time I add color to my hair I add a little bit of highlight and add a little bit more and a little bit more and a little bit more and then I'm like Ah, I should have added more but this time. I Think I've reached my max. I can't believe how blonde I am. It's really pretty What do you guys think? I absolutely love it like the blonde really makes your curls pop So I actually did not dye my hair myself this time. I went to a professional I went in just to get a cut because my bangs were just getting too long I wanted a reshape making the back a little bit more fluffy as you could see and we give you a full view Now instead of it just being like flat in the back I actually have some volume and she gave me that round shape that I just love and while I was there I was like I kind of add some more color. I was thinking I was just gonna do my roots But then I was just like, you know what? Let's do it and I just pulled the plug and Went lighter, but of course I filmed the entire process at the salon I did go to curls one-on-one, which is my favorite salon here in California. They're located in Beverly Hills Donatella is the stylist that cut my hair and her sister Eze is the one that did my color together They are like the dynamic duo that always do an amazing job on my hair my sister-in-law my mother-in-law every curly friend I know goes there. So if you're looking for a salon in California in the LA area I definitely recommend curls one-on-one. I'll make sure to put all the information below in the description box Make sure you let them know that I sent ya, but yeah, let's uh, let's just roll the footage. Shall we? So here we are back to the beginning and now my hair looks so dark in comparison But as you could see my length was just all over the place kind of flat in the back The color was very grown out and it was just really time for a refresh I just want my layers to be better. The back is kind of like flat again. You know just a refresh it Yeah, just a little more shade I love the length. Yeah Can we keep the length? It's just to clean it up. Only stylist would say can we keep the length? So you know you're in good hands They just give like the wrongness here in the back This part is like more flat Just to bring it up like this Because I feel like it's going to be square here. Yeah, exactly Don't want to be SpongeBob SquarePants Time to bring out the scissors So when you go get a professional diva cut or a curly cut You need to go in with your hair curly if they ask you to straighten your hair You need to run if they ask you to brush out your hair You should leave if they cut it while it's wet. It's not ideal but This is how curly hair should be cut while it's dry and while it's curly before I even knew what a diva cut was I used to cut my hair while it was wet. But when you really think about it That's such a bad idea because our hair looks the longest when it's wet So now the stylist is cutting your hair thinking it's this long when you know it's gonna shrink up when you get home So this way is so much better because now you're seeing your actual cut in its dry state Which is how it's going to actually look on a daily basis I always go with my hair with like day two or three hair So I get the volume and the shape that I usually have on a daily basis so they can see where my curls naturally lie Do not show up to your appointment with a slick back bun not pulled back into a ponytail Make sure your hair is down with not too much product in it Just so they can get through your hair without too many tangles and see the natural shape I personally have bangs so it is important for me to go with my hair Style with the bang so they could see how long or short my bangs are if your hair is usually just in a middle part And you leave it kind of flat It's okay to go in with freshly washed hair as long as your hair is dry with the diva cut They usually cut your hair first before they wash it. So keep that in mind not to go in there with dirty hair So it's kind of more flat on this side and now there's layers More rounder on this side Seriously, do y'all see this shape right now? I'm Obsessed this is how you know your cut is good because you're seeing how it looks if it was wet or Straightened you'd have no idea that this was going to be your ending result So right now she's just doing the final touches cutting curl by curl whatever she sees fit and my shape has just Transformed everything. This is going to give me volume making easier to style and just looks so much better So now that donatella has finished my cut it's time to move on to color with ezzy. Ezzy is the color specialist Professional at the curls one-on-one salon. So as you can see my color is so grown out all the colors Kind of like at the ends it has been about three months since I last did some colors So it's a safe time to do so that way I'm not adding too much color all the time and damaging my curls My curls are still healthy and popping and when I show ezzy a photo of the color that I'm going for She just mixes the colors herself to give me that exact match So there's no specific name of the color that I'm using today It's just based off of the photo that I brought in as my inspiration pic So always bring in photos of the look that you're going for whether it be for your cut or your color One of the great things about going to diva certified stylist and actual curly hair Professionals so they understand the importance of taking care of curly hair and not damaging it So even though I am getting color. She's not using any bleach She is using an ammonia free lightener with 20 volume developer Ezzy is using two different colors on my hair like the lighter brown and the blonde color really giving my hair dimension So it's not just one full solid color This is the second time as he has dyed my hair and I've loved it both times and I've never experienced any damage In the microwave The technique you just witnessed is called Pintura so when you get Pintura highlights That's not the name of the color, but it's the technique of painting your curls and Specifically selecting which curls she wanted to paint no foils no extra heat. She just wrapped me up like some leftover food Once we let the color sit It's time to rinse it out and see exactly how it looks when she rinsed it out She used the oligo black light blue shampoo and there's a blue shampoos to delete the unwanted orange or yellow Ness that might happen when you dye your hair So it's gonna give me an actual true blonde and get rid of any brassy type of tones that we don't want And the next step is to use Olaplex Olaplex is a bond Perfector that helps rebuild and restore any broken bonds that may have been broken during the color process This is such an important step to ensure that your curls are gonna remain healthy and prevent any damage And now it's time for our stylers. I love using diva curl products at the salon So they use the decadence line They also use a little bit of the diva curl believe in and the diva curl super cream Then both Ezzy and Donatella tag team the diffusing process. Yes, it takes a village I wish that they lived with me and then they could just diffuse my hair for me all the time But my hair does take a very long time to dry. So we got it as dry as we possibly could for day one And voila, this is the my day The hair I always leave a diva salon like very defined and my hair is usually still wet Just because it takes a long time But then once I go home and style it and make it even bigger on day two day three like it just looks amazing So thank you Donatella and Ezzy you girls always do an amazing job And it makes it so easy for me to recommend you guys to anyone that I know any subscribers watching.
