Beautiful Brunettes….Continued
Whether you emulate the sultry brunette beauty of Angelina Jolie or Anne Hathaway, there are so many reasons to be your most beautiful brunette hair color.
Renowned celebrity hair colorist Cal Martini says with the many fabulous hair color products your hair colorist can use, combined with the new techniques for hair color application, there is every reason your hair color can be radiant, shiny and perfect for your skin tone.
Today’s hair color products allow you and your hair colorist to create volume and depth with the stroke of a paintbrush. There is an abundance of ways to guarantee that your beautiful brunette hair color is rich, highlighted and healthy.
Are you still trying to decide if being brunette is the right hair color choice for you? Cal Martini advises first and foremost, you want to choose a hair color that will compliment your skin tone. You do this all the time when selecting your wardrobe, without even thinking about it.
Next, consider the colors you are naturally drawn to. Is it a single-process hair color or do you prefer the lift of highlights? If you feel that highlights are simply not in the budget, then selecting just the right shade and product for your single process is all the more important. For example.
If your natural hair color is a mousy brown that feels boring, you could explore lightening the shade of brown, instead of completely changing your hair color. Or just change the tone! That can make a real statement. There are so many from which to choose, from a reddish tint to glint of caramel.
This is what Cal Martini created for ABC’S Agent Carter’s, Hayley Atwell’s, boring dark brunette hair color. She needed subtle highlights to make the hair color pop & give definition, especially for evening shots. Back in the forties highlights were not invented yet. So it had to be very subtle to keep it authentic.
Next, consider what level of upkeep suits your life style. If you want a low maintenance regimen then brown is an excellent choice because the upkeep is usually simple.
If you are naturally very blonde, very grey or if your hair is dull or badly damaged, then dark hair color is an excellent choice. Because it is the most reflective of light, it hides breakage and minimizes the flaws of damaged hair.
One word of caution, be careful which shade of hair color you select. Again it goes back to skin tone. Very dark shades can wash you out and age you. This is where your hair color specialist comes in. Cal Martini is the hair color expert at balancing all these issues and finding which hair color is PERFECT FOR YOU!
