Never wonder what to mix again.
You want to walk into work every day footloose and stress-free- but every time a client comes with a red request, you start spiraling. The result? Hot roots, banding & one disappointed client who won't be coming back.
YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD THE MYTH...
All the so-called āgurusā will say you can't achieve beautiful (and natural-looking) reds with all professional hair coloursā¦
Hereās the thing: 90% of all Hairdressers will give a Redhead HOT Roots. 2/3 of those stylists believe the only way to mix and formulate a beautiful Red is by using a particular colour brand, but your salon doesnāt stock them.Ā
So you feel that you wonāt be able to do it because someone told you the colours you stock in the salon canāt create beautiful Red & Copper formulas.
Can you relate?
Hereās the tea: if you want to avoid messing up RED, you have to learn how to combine Creative Colour Theory with Science. But most people end up just guessing formulas or blaming the brand they use and ā shocker! ā it doesnāt work!
Want to stop making mistakes with reds in the salon? My fast-track course āThe Real Secret to Formulating Reds and Coppersā is for you.

The Real Secret to Formulating Reds & Coppers
This course teaches you how to formulate the perfect colour for every Red request with any salon professional colour brand!
Never wonder what to mix again.
Our formula lessons will guide you through mixing colour confidently, knowing how to cover greys without root glow for redheads, and how to analyse your client's inspiration photos to calculate a formula. And in minutes, not hours.






Kristina Russell has always been my biggest mentor in the hairdressing industry. From attending many of her courses as a student to assisting her at her courses, without fail I will always walk away with new learnings. Kristina is mesmerising when she facilitates. Her energy is fun and approachable and she facilitates in a language that can be converted into everyday life so it’s easy for all in the room to understand what she is teaching. Kristina knows how to engage her audience with the use of professional humour. I’m always laughing and having fun in a @ColourKristina workshop. I have translated her teachings to many different colour brands with ease throughout my career.

The best thing Iāve found is your Formulating Reds and Copper Masterclass.

This course is an absolute steal at this price.
