Achieve the Perfect Blonde by Summer: A Step-by-Step Guide

Introduction: The Countdown Begins

It’s already February! Time flies and summer will be her before you know it.  If you're dreaming of having beautiful blonde locks by summer, the time is now. Let's kick off the journey now and make sure your hair is living it’s best life by the time summer rolls around.

Step 1: Winter Kickstart

Start early! It gives you the advantage of a gradual transformation, ensuring your hair stays happy and healthy along your journey to the look you want. If you want to be blonde in time for sunkissed season, it’s time to go ahead and get your initial blonding session on the books. During your initial session, we’ll create your blonde by summer plan.

Step 2: Nourish and Hydrate

Deep conditioning treatments and hair oil are your secret weapons on this blonde adventure. Show your hair some love by incorporating these into your routine. Deep conditioning not only hydrates your strands but also prepares them for the lightening process ahead. I recommend Oi Hair Butter for deep conditioning and Oi Oil for hydration.  Both products are carried at Sway Salon. 

Step 3: Timing is Everything

After your initial blonding session, I’ll see how your hair lifts overall. Based on your goals, we’ll set follow up sessions every 6, 8, or 10 weeks. Consistency is key to achieving the perfect blonde shade. Keep your transformation on track with a well-planned timeline.

Step 4: What to Expect in your Full Blonding Session

We’ll delve into your hair history.  Hair history is important to know as we embark on the journey so I set realistic timeline expectations. We’ll talk about what tones you prefer and whether they lean towards cool, warm, or neutral shades. I’ll tailor the blonding process to match your personal style and desired outcome. 

Step 5: Embrace the Warmth

The reality is, all hair lifts warm. We’ll use toner to manage warmth.  This sets the foundation for a beautiful blonde transformation. We’ll discuss your desired warm undertones to ensure your look is summer-ready.

Step 6: Prioritize Hair Integrity

The health of your hair is paramount. To maintain that gorgeous blonde look, invest in professional products that ensure the integrity of your hair. Sway carries Davines. Davines is a full professional product line for all types of colored hair including blonde hair.
