One of my New Year’s goals is to work smarter, not harder. Yes, that also applies to my beauty routine! I have a few tips to share today that will save you time. That’s probably something you could use more of, right? John Frieda is a brand I’ve used and loved for years. The Sheer Blonde® Go Blonder lightening shampoo and conditioner have been products I regularly use and enjoy. They gradually and gently lighten blonde hair, whether it’s natural, colored, or highlighted.

John Frieda recently came out with Sheer Blonde® Go Blonder In-Shower Lightening Treatment. When used with the shampoo and conditioner, hair is gently lightened up to two shades. Used alone, the In-Shower Treatment instantly softens dark roots, and boosts your blonde by one shade.
Did you just think “OMG I can go longer between coloring my hair!?” Yes! The In-Shower treatment is safe for natural or colored hair and also safe for low lights and highlights.

The entire line of Brilliant Brunette and Sheer Blonde are BOGO 50% off all this month at Walgreens when you use your Balance Rewards card. I seem to be in Walgreens several times a week picking up prescriptions and checking out what’s new in the beauty aisles, so it’s easy to stock up while I’m there. I love to save time and money at Walgreens using John Frieda so I can refresh my roots and go longer between coloring!

I have a few tips to prolong your sparkling blonde (or any other shade!) hair color. If you take a little time to prep your hair and do a blow out, your style will last for days before needing to be washed and styled again.

After using the Sheer Blonde regimen, use the Frizz Ease 3 Day Straight Styling Spray on wet hair.

Blow dry as normal until hair is about 50% dry.

Now section hair and begin with the bottom layers, working your way up to the top layer of hair, using the John Frieda Salon Shape Hot Air Brush.

Once the section you are brushing is completely dry, turn it to cool air to lock in the style and smoothness.

I love this hair styling tool, because it allows me to blow dry, smooth, add volume and style all at once. This style will last for days, saving you time and money. I can get this style to last days by using dry shampoo to freshen up in the morning.
