TIP OF THE DAY: R+COLOR Global Educator @thelizwright shares how she uses SAIL Soft Wave Spray to amplify movement, texture and that effortless-looking lived-in finish clients keep asking for.
💡 Liz’s tip: Spray SAIL until it’s saturated more than you think, squeeze, twist, let it air dry for a few minutes, then break it up for extra oomph, texture and separation.
But wait, there’s more! R+Co SAIL Soft Wave Spray was just named Best Wave Spray in the 2026 Cosmopolitan Holy Grail Beauty Awards 2026.
🌊 “Just a few spritzes and some quick scrunches and this transforms my hair into dreamy beach hair that actually lasts all day. It doesn’t feel sticky or cause tangles either, unlike many other wave sprays.” —Cosmopolitan
R+COLOR Collective Member and VP of Color Education @renee.valerie shares why R+Co’s latest launch, METAL DETECTOR Detox Shampoo, will be a hair essential this summer.
💡Renee’s tip: R+Co METAL DETECTOR helps remove mineral buildup, chlorine, and other impurities that can dull or cloud the hair and color over time. It is especially great for swimmers, summer routines, or anyone dealing with hard water buildup. Regular use helps keep the hair looking and feeling clean, color looking vibrant, and creates the perfect fresh canvas before your next salon visit or color service.

Tip of the Day 📝 R+COLOR Regional Educator @macks.livedhair shares a simple trick for cleaner, more controlled foiling around the face using BUMPER Hair Color Barrier Crème.
💡Kenzie’s tip: Apply BUMPER around the face frame before placing your foils to help keep them secure and in place. It creates a smooth barrier that helps lock everything in while you work, and with aloe in the formula, it stays gentle on the skin throughout the service.
