Kindred Spirits

Stylist Robert Arguello (of Pon International in Anaheim Hills, California) cut Nicole's hair to release the weight and allow the natural curl to shine through. He applied a shoulder length cut with internal layers and tons of texturizing. Longer bangs are offset to one side to frame her face.

For her color, her natural brown was taken to a multi-dimensional series of copper and red with golden highlights throughout.
To style, Pon International Pon Soon is applied the root then is combed through to disburse. The hair is blow-dried using a diffuser to allow her natural texture to activate, yet control any natural frizzy tendencies. Pon Du soy paste is used to lightly separate the curls.
For a sleek finish, the hair is applied with Submission and Frizz Free, then is blow-dried with a round brush for a bit of volume on top. Next the hair is flat ironed and applied with more Frizz Free to piece and Shynie over the surface for luster.
