Golden Glass Hair Artistry with Wella Educator Dean Roybal
In 2025, beauty trends will revolve around radiant, high-shine looks, driven by the glass hair trend and a stained glass aesthetic. Inspired by the golden hour palette, these looks will feature warm, luminous tones with smooth, dewy finishes.
The concept centers on creating customized, high-shine results using layering techniques to build depth and dimension. The focus will be on permanent, demi-permanent color, glazes, and the NEW Ultimate Smooth product for sleek, glossy hair.
Expect golden blondes, playful pops of coral and copper, and panna cotta shades, offering light, buttery tones that complement the glowing, glass-like trend.
Dean Roybal introduces the highly sought-after "Golden Glass" hair trend, focusing on how to achieve maximum light reflection and a healthy, luminous finish. The demonstration centers on the strategic use of Wella’s Shinefinity and Illumina Color ranges to create a translucent, gilded effect that enhances the natural dimensions of the hair. Key learning takeaways include the science of pH-balanced glossing, the importance of choosing warm-toned pigments that provide glow without looking brassy, and specific application methods that ensure an even, mirror-like shine from roots to ends. Dean emphasizes product relevance by showcasing how these specific formulas bridge the gap between permanent color and high-gloss treatments, providing a premium service option for clients seeking low-commitment luxury. For the professional stylist, the session offers practical application advice on sectioning and saturation to prevent overlapping while maximizing the "glass" effect. This training provides the technical foundation needed to master high-shine finishes, allowing stylists to capitalize on current social media trends while maintaining the structural integrity of the client's hair.
