Lighten Up! Spring is Here and the Color Trends Are Warm and Sunny
Spring is the time to lighten up those drab winter shades and and add warmth and sunshine to washed out blondes and reds.
Blondes will be warmer and richer this season.
Reflective tones such as caramel, butterscotch, and strawberry blonde are placed next to cooler beige pieces.
This gives the hair movement.
The base should be a medium neutral blonde, to complement but not compete with the dimensional highlights and lowlights.
To blend colors and get mega shine, add a light golden blonde glaze to finish.
Brunettes will also lighten up, with bases of chestnut, maple and chocolate.
Adding slightly lighter highlights of caramel or toffee, in varying widths, gives the feeling of wood-grained dimension.
Just a few face-framing lighter pieces can make all the difference for brunettes.
An allover golden glaze adds shine and light reflection to the finished look.
Redheads will also brighten up and add dimension.
As with blondes, combining warm and cool tones really makes the colors stand out.
A copper base, with alternating foils of amber and mahogany, will help to revitalize winter reds.
Dry winter air does a number on our hair.
Now is the time to get that conditioning treatment! Kerastase Age Recharge, Oleofusion, and Pixelist are my favorites because they help moisturize and strengthen dry ends.
Used after a color service, these treatments also help retain color in the hair strand by closing the cuticle and adding protective agents.
Hair care products with UV filters, such as Kerastase Chroma Protect, further shield the hair color from oxidation, which causes fading and can turn hair brassy.
