Color Blurred Sombre
Blonde and brunettes can embrace the fall season's warm tones with Redken's new Sombre technique, which blends brunette and blonde shades together to create low-contrast effects.
To help colorists achieve this fresh-for-fall look, Redken has expanded its Chromatics color line to include two new mocha shades.
Mocha 6M, which features warmer tones that complement golden skin tones, are best suited for medium to lighter bases.
Mocha 4M, which provides rich, deep chocolate tones with a hint of red, is ideal on dark and medium bases.
Suggestion: Top your Sombre color designs with one of the new natural warm Shades EQ Gloss shades to create a beautiful blended color.
