When I was younger, I really did have more fun. And now I am finding it fits in with my own perception of myself. I am a blonde now, for better or worse.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At first the quarterly salon visits were fun. Every three months (my hair grows pretty slowly) I got to go see my colourist, she would ask me what I wanted, I would drink a cappuccino, it was glorious.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But then I moved cities. I started working 9-5. I was paying a lot more rent (Toronto vs. Waterloo, let me tell you). I had real grown-up expenses and my salon visits started getting further and further apart. Which also meant that my meticulous foil highlights were looking more and more busted. It was not a good look.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It wasn&#8217;t until I met <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fabbrik\">Fabio Persico<\/a>, s<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tylist at Brennen Demelo Studio, through a friend of a friend that I realized there was another way. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you want foil highlights, you need to look somewhere else. Persico only does balayage highlights, which are hand-painted to look more natural.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are so many reasons to love balayage I don&#8217;t even know where to start. Fabio loves it because it gives a more natural effect when the hair begins to grow out because you don&#8217;t see that harsh demarcation line.\u009d Balayage is designed to grow out. The rigidity of foils are what give you those roots after just a couple of weeks. Fabio says your stylist can customize the balayage to your needs and give you natural looking highlights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means that you can go way longer in between salon visits. Which means that you are spending way less time and money on upkeep and your hair still looks magical five\u00a0or six\u00a0months later when you go back to the salon for a few more highlights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This also means that blonde highlights are more prone to picking up brassiness and murkiness. Fabio suggests going in for a toner halfway between a colour service really gives you longevity and only takes about 10 minutes at the sink.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the meantime, here are a few products (with expert notes from Fabio) that will keep your blonde looking top knot-ch (see what I did there?).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/tps_header]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sephora.com\/color-lustre-brilliant-glaze-treatment-for-color-treated-hair-P403928?skuId=1694041\" target=\"_blank\">Shu Uemura Color Lustre Brilliant Glaze Treatment for Color-Treated Hair<\/a>, $66<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A treatment one or two times per week will brighten up your colour and maintain the condition of your hair\u009d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-92755 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-850x554.png\" alt=\"Color-Lustre-Treatment\" width=\"810\" height=\"528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-850x554.png 850w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-150x98.png 150w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-768x500.png 768w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-825x537.png 825w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-395x257.png 395w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725-600x391.png 600w, https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Color-Lustre-Treatment-e1459166725725.png 852w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/phyto1.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sephora.com\/restore-instant-protection-spray-P395349?keyword=LIVING%20PROOF%20Restore%20Instant%20Protection%20Spray%20P395349&amp;skuId=1616010&amp;country_switch=ca&amp;_requestid=52920\" target=\"_blank\">Living Proof Restore Instant Protection Spray<\/a>, $40<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use heat protection products every time you style your hair so the hair and colour does not look dry.
