I’ve been bleaching my hair for over 2 years now, and I’ve honestly gotten a little tired of my colour. Earlier this year, I tried dying my hair silver, but touching up my roots and keeping the colour fresh meant a lot of maintenance that I really just wasn’t that into. So last week, I met up with Francesca at Aveda to try a fresh new sombre style! I wanted to blend in a little of my natural dark blonde while still keeping some brightness, so the sombre highlights & lowlight she added in were perfect!
Now to be honest, I was a little hesitant at first about getting my hair done at Aveda since it is also a school, but I had an amazing experience. I love it when a company surprises you and my appointment at Aveda was genuinely the best experience I have ever had at a salon! From getting a hand massage while my foils were setting, to a makeup touch up before I left, everyone at Aveda went the extra mile (and it wasn’t just because I’m a blogger!). I realized mid-appointment that my meter was running out, and someone even ran outside and plugged my meter so I wouldn’t have to run down the street with foils in my hair! Amazing right?
Anyways, enough about my makeover… it’s time to give you one! Since I had such a great experience at Aveda, I’ve teamed up with them to give lucky winner a complimentary hair cut, colour & makeup application at an Aveda location in Canada, plus a bottle of their new dry shampoo! (Which is actually really neat because instead of being an aerosol product, it is a powder inside a unique little bottle that allows you to “spray” it on like you would with traditional dry shampoo. I always keep a small bag with a few beauty essentials in my car, but I was never able to keep dry shampoo, a total necessity for me, in my car because I was worried about the aerosol can exploding. The Aveda dry shampoo totally solves this problem for me!)
Here’s the details! The prize can be claimed at an Aveda salon in Winnipeg, Toronto or Vancouver. You can earn multiple entries into the giveaway via the Rafflecopter widget below or you can enter by leaving a comment letting me know what your next hairstyle will be!

Sounds like you had such a great experience there! I’ve been getting my hair done by the same person for over 10 years, so I would be so nervous to try a new place! Your hair looks great!

I had my hair colored auburn a few montsh ago, but it always fades so fast. Would love to win a refresh! 🙂
Oh wow, your makeover is absolutely gorgeous! I’m in love with your hair — I need it in my life, ha ha!
I’ve always had such a great experience at Aveda salons, even at their schools.
It’s too bad I don’t live in Canada, otherwise I’d join your giveaway! Either way, your look is still gorgeous 🙂

You look gorgeous! I love how it turned out!
Love your hair. I actually don’t know how I would colour my hair as I’ve never done that before, but for sure I’d cut it shoulder length, with layers.
My hair is in desperate need of a pick me up! It would be very nice to get a trim and go a little darker!
