Color in an Alternative World
Sherri Renée
Mastering the color component of alternative hair is crucial to attaining excellence for your clientele. Failure to deliver even basic color matching is not only unpleasing to the eye, but promotes inauthenticity and undesirable detectability. Mindfulness, observation and color mastery breathes new life, aesthetics and an endless array of possibility for a beautiful outcome. Explore the foundation of color mastery thru topics including color mirroring (matching), observing chiaroscuro principles, color design and order refinement and embracing gray (white) as a blank canvas to creating your alternative hair vision.
