French Blending Featuring Mike DeCanter
Course Description:
In this look and learn course, we'll explore how to transition clients from traditional full tint services to a softer, more blended and dimensional approach to white hair coverage. We'll look at who French Blending is right for, how to have the consultation conversation, and how to create a personalised plan based on your client's lifestyle, maintenance routine and desired result.
We'll also break down the practical application of French Blending techniques and, most importantly, how to deliver them in a realistic salon environment without adding hours to your appointment book. My goal is to give you the confidence to introduce French Blending into your service menu and offer clients a modern alternative to traditional white hair coverage that grows out beautifully and feels tailored to them.
