2nd step: Brass off with a gloss

This is then followed by the Dia Light Gloss, which can take as little as 5 to 10 minutes to make your blonde even cooler with no brassy reflects and bring shine & care to you hair. It might be a quick and easy process but the results are striking. Glossing with Dia Light, an acidic tone on tone formula is perfect to balance the hair after a lightening process and ensure an optimal closing of the cuticle. It definitely improves your hair cosmeticity, the light reflects more evenly off the hair, making the overall surface shinier and the texture softer. Hello radiant locks!

Gloss can be seen as the equivalent of a top coat over your nail polish. It adds shine and makes the hair look healthier. It’s the secret behind a unique and unforgettable French Balayage, No more brass, way more shine!

The gloss touch powered by Dia Light gives hair a sophisticated French result, thanks to its chic yet natural-looking tones that can be performed on all hair color: brunettes and blondes.
