I’ll make this brief: Trevor Sorbie has launched a genius Express Brightening service to cut the time it takes to lighten hair. During my appointment, international technical director Nathan Walker first chose which of the core techniques was right for my grown-out balayage (I had ‘Zorro’, swishy). Then, he applied a fraction of the foils you’d usually expect, using only 11 to cover my half head (it could take three times this normally).
The packets were then heated immediately with a special iron, and just like that, my hair was washed and toned. I was in and out in two hours (and enjoyed a head massage and blow dry during that time), and my hair looks as good as if it has taken half a day. Transformative in more ways than one.
