Mauricio Bermudez, a colorist at Suite Caroline in Soho, uses metallic-y toners and glosses. “You can have tri-reflective hues, almost like car paint,” says Bermudez. “We do
the balayage technique, hand-painting highlights, and afterward have fun adding in color with these tonal glazes.”

The effects, however, can be fleeting. Bermudez recommends using gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to avoid stripping the color, while Robinson suggests weekly glosses.

Then again, fly-by-night color has its advantages. “It’s a way for people to be adventurous without being super committed to it,” says Bermudez.

About

Suite Caroline was created as a space where craft and connection could coexist, and where possibility has no ceiling. After years inside New York’s most established salons, founder Lena Ott wanted to build an environment that gives artists the freedom to reach their full potential while upholding the highest standards of craft.

Named in honor of her mother, Caroline, the space carries her warmth and ease. Knowledge is shared freely, and every client is treated as a collaborator.

Each color, cut, and conversation is approached with the same intention: to make something beautiful, lasting, and true. Suite Caroline is a place for people who value quality, care, and a relationship built on trust, where the experience feels personal, thoughtful, and quietly confident.
