Profound Beauty Arctic Chill Inspired Bob by John Donato
Acclaimed stylist John Donato drew inspiration from the Profound Beauty Atmosphere product Arctic Chill to create this chic bob. The sleekness seen is a result of Arctic Chill compressing the hair fibers and reducing volume thus delivering a compact sleek and smooth look with an icy high shine. Recreate this look for all your bob-loving clients and remember to break out the Arctic Chill!
