The Tease: why should colorists attend the Matrix Color Pop-Up Tour? What are you most excited about?
Alfredo Lewis: The Pop Up Tour is one of my favorite things I’m honored to do this year. I think colorists should be excited because they are given a chance to learn the latest techniques and services clients are asking for in an intimate setting with some of todays top colorists in the biz!
The modern shag is inescapable, why do you think this style in particular has taken off?
Lewis: I have always loved the Modern Shag but right now I think more than ever women are wanting to express themselves with more texture and haircuts that give them individuality. There are so many variations of this cut the options are endless.
What do you hope participants take away from the Matrix Color Pop-Up Tour?
Lewis: I hope that they take away inspiration to elevate their craft and key tips and tricks that they can immediately take back to the salon with them to increase revenue and get new clients coming into their salon.
