What can we do as clients before we get to the salon to make sure that everything goes smoothly once we’re there? You wrote about this in your book, Tracey Cunningham’s True Color. Walk me through some of that pre-salon checklist, the crucial things to do right before you’re getting colored. Is there something you should do a week before, a day before, the morning of? What is your dream scenario for a client?
Tracey Cunningham: My dream scenario would be somebody to do an Olaplex treatment before. When you’re like, “I want to go blonder today!” I would love it if you did an Olaplex treatment. And also, if your hair looks a little green, go on Amazon and buy some Malibu 2000 and do a Malibu treatment on your hair. It’s so important to get the green out of your hair. I talked about it in my book, too. Say your hair is super blonde and it’s your dream color and you’re like, “Thank you so much. I love my hair,” and then you come back and you’re like, “My hair is dull, my hair is this, my hair is that. How come it didn’t last?” It’s because of the water. You could prepare yourself by scrubbing out your hair, getting the minerals out of your hair (there are so many new products right now for that), and then you can also Olaplex. There’s No.0, which is the extra strength and then there’s the original No.3, which is amazing. I like to do them together.
Do you want them to heat style? Does that matter?
TC: It doesn’t matter. We hate it when you come in from the gym with hair sopping wet with sweat.
Audience, take note: Do not go and get your hair colored with dirty hair from the gym, period.
