Getting the Perfect Cherry Blonde
At Scott Farmer Salon, achieving the perfect cherry blonde is a personalized journey:
Starting Point Assessment
- Comprehensive Evaluation of Natural Hair Color: This step is crucial as it determines the base color and any necessary corrections. Evaluating your natural hair color helps you decide on the right shade of cherry blonde to achieve the desired result.
- In-depth Discussion of Hair History and Goals: Understanding your hair history, including previous color treatments, is vital for achieving the desired outcome. This ensures optimal results tailored to your needs.
- Detailed Hair Health Check: A thorough hair health check is essential to ensure your hair can withstand the color treatment. This assessment is critical before any color application.
Customized Color Techniques
- Expert Base Color Application: A common approach to achieving cherry blonde hair is to start with a reddish copper base color. This base color is blended with blonde tones to create the desired shade.
- Strategic Placement of Highlights: The strategic placement of highlights, such as in balayage techniques, enhances the natural look of the hair. Balayage is recommended for its low-maintenance and natural-looking results.
- Precision Toner Selection: Selecting the right toner is critical for achieving the perfect blend of red and blonde tones. Toners can adjust the warmth and coolness of the color, ensuring a flawless blend.
- Exploring Variations of Cherry Blonde: Cherry blonde can vary in depth and vibrance, and several variations are available to suit different styles, including solid cherry blonde, cherry blonde balayage, and cherry blonde money pieces.
Pro Tip
Scott Farmer recommends cherry blonde balayage or a rooted cherry style for a natural-looking result. Scott focuses on face-framing sections to create a seamless blend that grows out beautifully.
To maintain the cherry blonde color, consider using products like Modern Color’s 3-IN-1 Color Refresh + Cleanse + Conditioner, which helps keep the color vibrant and the hair healthy.
Recommended Products for Cherry Blonde Care
To maintain the vibrancy and health of your cherry blonde hair, consider incorporating these salon-recommended products into your routine:
Color-Safe Shampoo and Conditioner
Protect your color with gentle, sulfate-free formulas designed for color-treated hair. Experts like Rita Hazan emphasize the importance of using color-safe products to prevent color fade and maintain hair health.
Nourishing Hair Masks
Use a deep-conditioning treatment weekly to keep your hair hydrated and shiny. Regular hair masks help lock in moisture and protect the hair from damage caused by coloring and styling.
Thermal Protectant Spray
Apply before heat styling to prevent damage and preserve color integrity. This is particularly important for cherry blonde hair, which can be more prone to damage due to the bleaching and coloring process.
Product Examples
- Eva NYC’s Tone It Down Blonde Shampoo is a sulfate-free, cruelty-free, and vegan shampoo that helps reduce brassy tones and keeps hair shiny and soft.
- Moisture-Rich Conditioners: Conditioners rich in moisturizing ingredients are essential for maintaining the health of cherry blonde hair.
- BRAÉ Purple Shampoo: This shampoo helps neutralize brassy tones and maintain the desired color. It is recommended for use once or twice a week to keep the color vibrant.
