Get the look: all-American Alexa Vega

“Alexa Vega is like a daily double. She is a singer and an actress. She has that very all-American look to her which we would create by using lots of very fine highlight pieces throughout her hair, keeping her very light towards the face using the O&M Keratin Lightener, then intermixing with the Mineral Blonde Mineral CCT in 12/81. To enhance the shine and gloss, we would tone with a Mineral CCT 10/8 in the Lightest Pearl Blonde that will clean out any brassy undertones in her hair”, says Wayne Lewis, Technical Director for Original & Mineral and Colour Director for Original “A” Salon (formally Atlantis Hair).

“To style her hair, we would spray with two of our favourite products – O&M’s Atonic and No Knott which will add nourishment to the hair but also heat protection. Using a vent brush, take large sections from her scalp drying with as much lift as we can but not creating any volume in the ends. This is one case where ironing the hair would be perfect to give it a glass like reflection and smoothness. Once ironed a couple of drops of Frizzy Logic which is both rich in Argan and Macadamian Nut Oils will help to seal the hair and add unbelievable lustre. PS - does she remind anyone else of Mariah Carey?”, says Alan Buki, Co-Founder for Original & Mineral and Owner of Original “A” Salon (formally Atlantis Hair).
