The “Diy” Ombré Featuring Joico Global Brand Storyteller, Olivia Smalley

Jennifer Lopez Sketch

Ready to get your superstar, Jenny-from-the-block-look on? Joico Global Brand Storyteller, Olivia Smalley’s going to show you how – on her own hair! – with some temporary glam hacks that conjure up full-on celebrity style.

The back story…
The foundation of this iconic ‘do is an Ombré hair-color effect. Taking its name from the French word for “shadow” or “shade,” this gradient, lived-in look embraces darker roots and lighter ends; but fear not…Olivia shows you how to temporarily recreate it on her blonde hair using Joico’s Tint Shot Root Concealer (more on that in a minute). Then, it’s all about adding some strategic waves to give the look its hallmark va-va-voom star quality.

The Product Collection Olivia’s Using to Create Her Iconic Look

K-PAK Color Therapy Color-Protecting Shampoo
This color-preserving shampoo washes away dirt and debris while being gentle to color-treated hair. With its luscious lather, formulated with antioxidant-rich African Manketti and Argan oils, you’ll actually help extend the life of your shade’s vibrancy and fight future damage every time you wash.

K-PAK Color Therapy Color-Protecting Conditioner
Our extra-conditioning formula, with African Manketti and Argan oils, helps shield your hue’s vibrancy, while hydrating overtime to strengthen hair and reduce breakage.

K-PAK Color Therapy Luster Lock Multi-Perfector Daily Shine & Protect Spray
This “wonder spray for healthy-looking hair every day” is a silky, leave-in treatment that that delivers a powerful shield of protection against styling stress, thermal damage, and UV exposure – all of which can fade your haircolor. The results are remarkable and visible…smooth-as-silk hair that shines like nobody’s business.

K-PAK Color Therapy Glossing Oil
The daily hair treatment that creates 150X the shine in a single drop. In addition to boosting big-time shine, it also preserves over 85% of investment hair color, and tames frizz without weighing strands down. Super nourishing African Manketti Oil, Argon Oil, and Evening Primrose Oil team up to create hair that’s instantly 9X stronger; while K-PAK’s SmartRelease Technology releases Rose Hip Oil, Arginine, and Keratin to repair, strengthen, and protect hair from future breakage, repairing years of damage in just a single use.

Body Shake Texturizing Finishing Spray
Get the body you’ve always wanted with the plush, airy, bombshell volume of Body Shake — the buildable spray that’s never stiff or sticky. Delivering a bouncy, plush finish and the freedom to touch and retouch, you’ll have fullness, fluidity, and pollution/humidity protection in one unique texturizer.

PUTTING THE FULL ACT TOGETHER

NOW START WITH AIR-DRIED HAIR
Olivia lets her hair air-dry overnight, and just brushes through the next day.
Bonus: Less heat styling = healthier hair.

  • Cocktail Joico K-PAK Luster Lock Spray and Glossing Oil in the palm of your hand; apply to hair lengths to create immediate shine and protection from the curling iron that’s just around the bend.
  • Now it’s time to color without commitment and create the Ombré effect. Simply spray Tint Shot Light Brown onto roots. Use a clean powder makeup brush to blend color downwards into your blonder strands.
  • Using a large-barrel curling iron, curl the “money pieces” in front away from the face, leaving ends out for a more natural effect.
  • Next, curl the rest of the hair (from the ears back), bending curls towards the face. This re-direction creates extra volume in the hair.
  • Finger-brush the curls and apply Joico Body Shake Texturizing Finisher for additional texture, hold, luxurious volume.
  • Throw on a pair of gradient aviator sunglasses (they’re Ombré, too!), and grab your mic – because you’re going to be singing the praises of this fun and fast hairstyle.
