The Benefits of Blondeterauge
Both hair stylists and their clients can benefit from Blondeterauge's straightforward process and superior results.
For Clients
The greatest benefit for clients is a strong sense of security. By lightening the pigmentation in the hair shaft, Blondeterauge creates blonde hair that’s softer, shiner, and healthier, without stripping the pigment out of
the hair. When clients see and feel the hair of the friends that referred them, they will be confident that Blondeterauge can do the same for them.
For Hair Stylists
Stylists can feel confident when using Blondeterauge because no matter how long the product is on the hair or how many foils are used, the color will be consistent and the hair will not be damaged. Unlike bleach, which is a progressive product that will lighten hair to the point of damage if left on for too long, Blondeterauge is a degressive product that goes on strong and gets weaker over time. That means that no matter how many foils are used or how long it’s on the hair Blondeterauge will only lighten to a given color while creating soft, shiny, and evenly colored hair.
Testimonials
This is how Blondeterauge users describe their experience.
My hair was damaged from heat styling and past stylists overlapping high lights. Stephen gave me a gorgeous and much needed hair cut: he cut my split ends and gave me a great shape, despite much damage. He armored me with the right tools. I bought a new round brush, leave-in conditioning treatment, no-orange shampoo and conditioner. I am a bright blonde now and get compliments everywhere I go. If you are seeking healthy, beautiful hair, call him immediately. He is extremely patient and knowledgeable. He is a total perfectionist and genuinely cares about his clients. I would recommend every person I know to see him - if you are looking for a next level, glamorous look!

For over twenty years, I have been a very satisfied and happy client of Stephen Hanson. I now travel from NH to Boston to get my hair foiled and cut. Stephen is brilliant! The color of my hair is amazing! After all the years of having my hair colored, it is still soft and shiny. All the time I get compliments on my color and cut. Recently I was at a gathering and five different people wanted to know where I get my hair colored and cut.

I’m 48 and have been a client at Blondeterauge for the past 8 years. Blondeterauge has literally transformed my hair from brittle and broken to healthy, shiny and free of split ends. Until I found Stephen, my hair was very damaged from highlighting it every five to six weeks. I had a fringe of broken hair surrounding my face that would never seem to grow. I had to keep cutting layers in my hair due to breakage and had a hard time taming my frizzy hair. Now I am able to go 14 weeks between highlights and only need a haircut every other visit. My hair is soft and smooth and I don’t even need a flat iron. When my teenage daughter asked to get highlights 4 years ago, I would only bring her to Stephen. She has very long hair and has absolutely no damage, just beautiful, glossy light blonde hair that looks completely natural. My daughter now goes to college in Florida but makes sure to schedule her highlights and cut far in advance when she is back in the Boston area on break. Recently I was at Sephora and one of the sales clerks remarked that my hair was so healthy and shiny and she wished her would look like mine! I am so thankful I found Blondeterauge!

I have been a Blondeterauge client for over 20 years. I am a natural brunette but no one knows until I tell them. My highlights are so natural and my hair is so healthy that people don’t know I’ve been highlighting my hair for over 20 years! I get a foil and cut less than twice a year and go in every 4-6 weeks for a quick toner to extend the highlight. I cannot deal with high maintenance so it’s the best of both worlds. My hair is soft, shiny and healthy while maintaining the blond shade I love. I have turned my family and friends on to Stephen and once they start with him they never leave. We all love Stephen’s products and you will too!

When I first met Steven, my hair was a disaster- fried beyond belief. My hair is very thin and straight to start with and when I met Steven I had given up all hope that I could have decent hair -because bleach upon bleach had totally ruined my hair. I have now been going to Steven religiously because he is the only hairdresser that uses a special formula and technique that manages the lightening process (and by the way I have very dark hair that is going grey) without hurting my hair. After 5 years my hair is great shape, the color is exactly the way I want it and he also is such a pro at cutting hair. I have to travel a long way to get my hair done but it is worth all the effort as I was at the point of having to wear a wig to go out in public. This guy is such a pro and on top of that, he is just a great person. Though he is constantly booked, my sense is he is into even greater fame with his lightening formula and technique. I wish him the very best as he is the best.

I have been coming to Steven for six years, driving from Rhode Island to Boston every 10 weeks or so. People say “ Surely you can find someone to do your hair in the Providence area”, but actually, no I can’t, not like Steven. My hair is healthy; soft, shiny and very natural looking, always. The highlights add a beautiful shine and body to my hair, and honestly, since connecting with Steven, I have never looked back. I get so many compliments. Not only is he a colorist expert, his cutting skills are the best I have ever known. I have shoulder length hair, and I only need a cut for precision every 8 to 10 months. He is the best keeper of hair for women I have ever known. I am reminded of that on a daily basis as I look around and see the damage and horrible hair that many women have.

I can't recommend this product enough! Stephen has been doing my hair for over 15 years and I always receive compliments. People don't even know I color my hair! :) I have light brown hair and started seeing Stephen after getting some really bad highlights. Since then, my (now very long) hair is healthy with damage. I only get my hair highlighted twice a year and get a toner inbetween. Very low maintenance!

Six years ago, while working, Stephen asked me who colored my hair. At the time, my shoulder length, over-processed, fried hair was screaming to be loved & fortunately, since then, Stephen has done just that. With his formula, Stephen has literally made all my "hair goals" come true. From a on-air TV talent to a full time, world traveling, yoga professional--my hair & it's appearance can affect my work. He's always delivered longer, stronger, shinier, healthier hair with EACH visit WITHOUT bleach. I know, it's hard to be believe. I didn't before I tried it. Since then I've referred over 20 other blonde women to Stephen based on them complimenting my color alone. He's my secret weapon. My best kept secret. But now, the world needs to know. This product, technique, and formula are like NO other & in that right are simply unparalleled. WARNING: The Blondeterauge method WILL change your life.

I have been seeing Stephen for over 13 years to lighten my very dark brown hair to blonde four times a year with Blondeterauge. My hair is very healthy with absolutely zero damage and no breakage. I don’t even need trims in between for split ends etc. I relocated from Boston to the South two and a half years ago and wouldn’t consider having any other product used on my hair. I now fly “home” to Boston. The cost is worth it to me for low maintenance and healthy hair. My hair is in best condition and I’m in my mid 50s and have long hair. I highly recommend Stephen and this fantastic product!

I'm 27 and have been using color products, getting highlights, using box sets to dye my hair, etc. since I was in the 8th grade. While in college I started using the John Freda Go Blonder line and it completely fried my already damaged hair. For years I've been trying to get my hair back to normal while still rocking the blonde look without much success. I was using a L'Oréal box set for CVS for about 3 years after the John Freda fiasco, but wasn't able to grow my hair longer than my shoulders; it was dry, breaking, and split ends were everywhere. Out of luck I stumbled upon Stephen and his products back in July 2017 and haven't looked back. My hair is just as blonde as ever and thriving, without any of the negative side effects I had been experiencing for the past 15+ years. For the first time since I was 15, my hair is past my shoulders and is only getting longer. My hair is noticeably healthier, shinier, and softer; even my fiancé, who notices nothing when it comes to hair, has noticed a huge difference. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking to go Blonde to try Stephen’s products. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I live outside of Philadelphia PA in Bucks County and have been traveling for over 12 years to Boston every 4-5 months for a foil & cut with Blondeterauge. I made several attempts to find a local salon which could provide the same results but had only negative results. With Blondeterauge my hair color is natural looking, full of body, shiny and healthy. I can go months without needing another foil. With other salons my hair was stripped and did not look healthy. I had drastic breakage—not good for someone like me with very thin hair. I have never had bad results with Blondeterauge and recommend it to everyone.
