Whilst still maintaining a strong feminist vibe, the 

contrast between the powerful haircuts and the 

sensuous, soft styling audaciously fuses together with 

the extensive Lakmé colour pallet and Alterna styling 

range to create the perfect combination. 

Instruction in multiple techniques; 

Shadow colour - emphasises solid lines and strong 

fringes by adding a low light or a high light to the tips 

of the hair 

3D foils - the effect you will achieve with this dynamic 

technique will exaggerate texture on short hair 

Radial foils - foiling pattern that works around the 

head in a circular motion creating variation in the 

interior layers using tones lighter than the base to 

break solid colours. 

Ombre - To create a seamless blend on the ends of 

long hair 

Swivel - The swivel is a block colouring technique that 

is best used on bob length hair with internal layering 

allowing under panels of colour to bleed through to 

surface. 

Shape Modifier - Shape modify is our interpretation 

of an undercut. This modern technique adds a ton of 

personality and edginess to any hairstyle. 

Slide to frame : a super quick technique that allows 

you to shape around the face with long hair when its 

dry in a matter of minutes. 

Cutting & Colouring for a collection – the difference 

between doing it on a client in the salon & a photo 

shoot for your collection. 

Long hair layering - using seamless layering
