00:00I've always had restrictions on my hair.
00:03I haven't been able to do anything fun with it
00:06because Asian moms are a little bit stricter.
00:09I'm really nervous about dying my hair
00:12because I definitely don't want it to ruin it.
00:14Also, my mom's going to kill me, but it'll be great.
00:18My name is Nicole, and I'm getting icy white hair.
00:20Before you see my hair transformation, subscribe below.
00:24When I think of icy white hair, I think of Gwen Stefani,
00:27and I also think of Elsa from Frozen,
00:30and I definitely don't want to look like that,
00:33so hopefully it'll be a little more stylish than that.
00:36I've always been a huge fan of Gwen Stefani,
00:39and she literally grew up 20 minutes from where I'm from,
00:42so I'm really excited to get a look
00:44that will kind of express my personality
00:47the way that she expresses hers.
00:50When I was younger, I always wanted
00:52to change the color of my hair.
00:54I always wanted to dye it,
00:56but that was not allowed in my household
00:59because my mom's super strict on hair.
01:01I've had this same hair for 22 years, my entire life,
01:06so it's time to change it up.
01:09My name is Kazumi.
01:11I own a hair salon in Beverly Hills Coast Salon Kazumi.
01:15I specialize in color collection.
01:18That means I change the hair color completely from black to blonde,
01:22and Nicole is perfect candidate for today.
01:26Hello.
01:27Hi.
01:27I'm Kazumi.
01:28I'm Nicole.
01:29Nice to meet you.
01:30Nice to meet you.
01:30So what are we doing today?
01:32I think we're going to do really blonde, really icy blonde.
01:36Oh my god, that's amazing.
01:38How blonde do you want to go?
01:39Like, as light as we can, I think.
01:42Yeah.
01:43Have you done it before?
01:43No.
01:44Oh.
01:44It's going to look so awesome on you.
01:46Give you a little edge style.
01:47I'm so excited.
01:49OK, great.
01:50Let's get you started.
01:51Sweet.
01:54OK.
01:54So we're going to make Nicole.
01:56She has beautiful dark hair, and we're
01:59going to give her beautiful champagne blonde.
02:01It'll be an amazing transition today.
02:04So first, I did a full highlights on Nicole.
02:09I took all slides back-to-back section.
02:24I literally have to lift this up, because it
02:26looks like I'm wearing headphones.
02:35OK, we are almost done.
02:36How are you doing?
02:37Doing good.
02:38Yeah, you OK?
02:39Yeah.
02:40Is it really heavy?
02:42Yeah, just relaxing my head on here.
02:45OK, good.
02:45It's a lot better, because I'm not
02:46holding the weight anymore.
02:48It's clever.
02:48Good.
03:02I processed about 30 minutes.
03:26I'm so glad your head is doing well.
03:29I get to do one more round of bleach.
03:35Oh, good.
03:36I'm doing well.
03:36I'm doing well.
03:36I'm doing well.
03:36I'm doing well as possible.
03:40I went in, and we applied the bleach on where
03:43it was still dark.
03:53OK, so bleach is all in.
03:56We went over the roots a little bit.
03:58And also, I went over the very gentle bleach, where still there was a yellow remained.
04:05And I'm trying to get as light as possible evenly.
04:09And we have to rinse off now.
04:11And we're going to give you that toner, and you'll be all done.
04:15Awesome.
04:15Yeah, almost there.
04:16Almost there.
04:17So excited.
04:18Me too.
04:25Right after the bleach, you want to treat the hair with good keratin and collagen-based treatment
04:30to repair the hair inside out before you tone your hair.
04:37And then I tone her hair with champagne blonde, and left it about a good five minutes.
05:20What do you think?
05:22I love it!
05:23Oh my god.
05:24It looks so good on you.
05:26I like couldn't imagine it would look any better.
05:29Like this is exactly...
05:30It looks so good.
05:33It looks amazing, like it feels like a super hero.
05:37Your dreams come true.
05:38I am in absolute awe, it looks so good.
05:42It feels really good and it still feels like
05:45it has so much life in it.
05:46And I couldn't be happier with what happened today.
05:49It looks amazing.
05:51It reminds me so much of Gwen Stefani
05:53and has all the sassiness and like grace that she has.
05:57So I love it.
05:58I got really lucky today with Nicole
06:00because she was virgin hair.
06:02Usually people have colored hair
06:04and that could be challenging to colorist.
06:07Since Nicole was virgin hair,
06:09I was expecting pretty smooth transition.
06:12I think what was so special about it is
06:14Kazumi brought back a special treatment from Japan.
06:18So I was getting all the elite like Japanese hair treatment
06:22and so it feels really good.
06:25I can't wait to show my mom.
06:27I think she's gonna be overjoyed by the way it looks.
06:29I know she was afraid it was gonna be damaged
06:31and it's perfectly fine, so it's great.
06:35I guess it's time to test the theory
06:37if blondes are more fun.
06:39We'll see.
