SUPERIOR COVERAGE

When we talk about superior coverage, we’re not just speaking of covering you’re clients ‘sparkle’ (grey coverage – Check out our blog)

In this feature blog we’re showcasing extraordinary transformations from our Leyton House salons and educators around the world and the superior quality of the results they’ve gained – expect the unexpected!

One of the most memorable transformations was back in 2020 when we filmed Simon Says Episode 6 featuring highlight and lowlights. Our model Kaisha arrived with virgin hair that had no depth or style. Kaisha was truly transformed into chic young woman with earthy hues, blunt fringe to highlight her face and yet very salon friendly. 

ALEXIS ERICKSON hair and makeup artist makes correction and coverage look so easy with her Fall Spices hair colour look. We’re loving seeing this amazing artist grow and challenge herself throughout her hairdressing career. 

Every now and then you’ll get that client that’s left their hair for so long you literally need to hit the reset button.

Consult with your client about their hair history, look at the porosity and damaged of the hair if any.

Global Educator, Dale Smith’s motivation is about making sure his clients look and feel beautiful no matter of age or gender. Dale says, ‘job satisfaction comes from knowing when your client leaves the salon, they look amazing and more importantly they’re 100% satisfied with their results and service I’ve provided’.

His gorgeous client came in with the longest regrowth – But with the use of Leyton House Couture Silk Liqueur mixed with level 4 Red, Dale has successful achieved superior coverage and extraordinary depth and tone on one very happy and glamours client. 

Formula & Technique:

Sprayed Couture Care All Purpose 6 in 1 on the mid-lengths and ends prior to application to help with porosity.
30g Couture Silk Liqueur 4.036 + 30g 4.6 + 8g 3.0 + 102g 3% (10vol) LH Developer
Applied to scalp to begin the 1 level of lift of natural level
Applied to ends to cover lighter colour and check porosity issues.
Then melted/blended to the middle + processed additional 25 minutes

A similar scenario to Dale Smith but a geographical change to Poland where educator Lukasz Rolnik obtains superior coverage with grace and transform dull dark regrowth to a cool toned icy blonde as pale as white with a subtle touch of violet hues. To get that platinum colour, patience is required as may not be achievable in one sitting unless.

In this case Lukasz achieved the desired results and the hair is kept in fabulous condition yet again by using Alpine Blonding Crème and using the Leyton House Demi Permanent collection, a gentle ammonia free colouring system particularly when used with .000 clear which not only dilutes but also contains treatment keratin properties to look after and care the hair.

South African Educator Paul Hackett of Capsule One has pushed the boundaries of Alpine Blonding Crème and lifted his client’s hair more than 7 levels. Going from a level 2 to 3 base to a 10 without compromising the integrity or healthy structure of the hair. All with the help of protection and nourishing properties of argan and acai oils.’

So, there we have it, when we mention the words ‘Superior Coverage’ it’s not always about covering grey hair. You can morph a client’s hair in many ways, from flirty fashion colours, covering or masking grey hair, creating subtle muted highlighted face framing hues to gently toning yet manufacturing stunning platinum locks.  Obtaining superior coverage with Leyton House Professional is so easy.
