Luxe Lowlights with Mikelah-Jayde Riley MELBOURNE

Mikelah-Jayde Riley is a Perth colourist and salon owner known for creating the kind of blonde work that makes people stop scrolling. An AHIA Hot Shot winner 2023, she's built her reputation on seamless blondes and bold dimensional colour.

Luxe Lowlights is for colourists who already do beautiful work but want that extra layer that makes clients linger a little longer in the mirror.

In this class, lowlights aren’t treated like a fix or a safety net. Mikelah-Jayde shows how they become the move that makes colour feel expensive and a little bit iconic. You’ll see how adding depth in the right places can make light look brighter, give brunettes more presence, and take hair from “pretty” to hair people screenshot and ask about.

You’ll learn how to choose tones that add richness without dragging the colour down, and how to place lowlights so the result looks seamless rather than stripy. Mikelah-Jayde talks through the small decisions that make the biggest difference — where to add depth, where to protect brightness, and how to keep everything looking soft and believable as the hair moves.

This is a class that upgrades the way you build dimension, giving you a lowlight approach that makes your colour work look richer, more dimensional and more distinctive behind the chair.
