Ksenia did some experimenting with her color. Her hair was previously applied with a black and green-based henna, which stained the cuticle, making it impossible to lift back out. Luckily two years of growth made the ends the only area that was still affected. The rest of the hair was brown with gold highlights. Her length was to the middle of her back with some very short and not so flattering layers.
Nicole’s hair length was just at the ears in front and longer in back. After weaving the natural hair with bleach and glossing over the top, the hair was applied with mousse for lift at the root before blow-drying for volume with a large round brush. Following flat ironing to smooth the hair, human hair extensions were added all over for both length and volume utilizing the Great Lengths keratin bond system. The extensions were cut to blend with her natural hair.
This color was lightened up with a highlight placed throughout her natural brown shade for a highly dimensional and honey-rich feel.
The perimeter of her cut was crafted with a more solid outline with most of the layering being done internally. Next Pon sculpted longer bangs or fringe and tons of layers, including some shorter layers to give a rounded volume on top.
Jesseca’s hair is considered fine but she has a ton of it. Her strands are naturally wavy and were way too long to easily take care of. She was simply ready for a new and more refined look.
For her new look, PON International stylist Kathy Reed created a classically inspired and layered bob with a swoop bang to make it modern. She left Jesseca’s natural color but added two shades of blonde with extensions by Extend Creations then blended the extensions into her cut.
A scissor over comb technique allows thisshort length on the sides to seamlessly blend into a slightly longer top. A small quantity of wax or styling paste provides the right amount of control for this highly polished look.

Sara Wayne of Pon International created a soft and sexy look for Courtney starting with her color. Originally she had outgrown highlights on a natural, but drab looking (level 5/6) blonde base. To soften the look, Sara weaved in honey and golden blonde hues as well as some chunky lowlights for dimension.
For the cut, a more blunt shoulder length perimeter was broken up with some subtle point cutting while the interior was layered and highly texturized for maximum movement.
Kristine Agrusa of The David Salon created long layers for Monica then applied a series of lighter blonde highlights and medium blonde low lights for a softly dimensional feel.
Devon’s long layered strands feature a rich medium copper red color with some deep strawberry blonde highlights. To style, The David Salon’s Erin Duffy first applied a leave in conditioner that was concentrated on her ends for hydration. Silk Therapy was sparingly used at the ends with the residual worked through the rest of her hair.
