One of the many things that hair does for us is the opportunity to reinvent ourselves. Whether it’s a bold balayage that transforms your look or a daring red that makes you feel unstoppable, your hair can reflect who you are—or who you want to be.
Sounds high maintenance, you think? Not anymore. With TRESemmé Color Radiance and TRESemmé Blonde Brilliance, you can experiment on bold colors as bravely as you can and get a fresh start.
We talked to Joana Chua, Day 1 Studio’s girl boss, resident science nerd, and hair trend forecaster about how TRESemmé does expert-level care for your ever-changing hair.
What’s the story behind Day 1 Studio?
At the very beginning, we had this vision of having loyal clients who always go to us for beauty needs, for a fresh look.
We named the salon Day 1 because we wanted to be a place for fresh beginnings. Because when you start anew, you start with Day 1. It’s also really inspired by friendship.
What are you most proud of about Day 1?
Of course, I'm really proud of my team. They were handpicked by me and my husband and we had to train them as well. Everyone's on the same page.
We had to be here during the pandemic. Day 1 has become our instrument to support the families we need to support. With them in mind, I really had to do everything I can to make sure we stay open.
What’s your fearless hair trend forecast for 2025?
For next year, we actually predict that people will go more wild with their hair—more vibrant, more radiant hair, more blonde. I think people are more ready now to slay [when it comes with their style] because everything is just more accessible.
But when it comes to ever-changing hair, the ultimate concern remains: why does it fade so fast? What’s your expert recommendation to maintain the vibrance of color-treated hair and prevent color from washing off?
It’s actually such a waste if you've gone to the salon, spent a lot [of time and money] already, only to get home with a color that fades so fast. You have to have a good hair care system even at home.
For color-treated hair, I recently discovered TRESemmé Color Radiance and its Anti-Fade Technology. It has jojoba seed oil and sunflower seed oil that actually locks in the moisture and the pigments of the hair so the color doesn't fade when you wash your hair.
How about for blondes? How can we prolong the life of salon-vibrant hair and neutralize brassy tones?
For blonde hair, I recommend TRESemmé Blonde Brilliance. It actually keeps your color fresher for longer and at the same time, it nourishes your hair. TRESemmé Blonde Brilliance is complete with serum conditioner and hair mask, specifically designed for those who have gone blonde.
What’s your message to those wanting to explore more vibrant hair colors but are still afraid to do so?
Spread your wings. And by wings, I mean hair. That's right—when you commit to taking care of your hair better, your wings can just slay all the time.
