There are just three numbers to understand when it comes to L’Oréal Professionnel blonde hair shades. To continue our commitment to reduce single use plastic, your henna will no longer come with plastic gloves. Please protect your hands with some trusty reusable rubber gloves. It’s crucial for these colors to be slightly lighter or darker than your own natural shade. Choosing the most suitable hue means you’ll look younger instantly! For cool undertones: When you pay for a salon, you’re paying for the professional service and the experience of being pampered in safe hands. And I guess the option to get it re-done if it doesn't meet your expectations!’ So, can you achieve the same colour at home? When it comes to cool tones, it’s all about blue and violet hues. Cool blonde hair colour shades include light ash blonde, champagne and platinum. The blue/violet counteracts the yellow tones to produce a flattering and modern cool shade.

The key to choosing a hair color that makes you look younger is getting the right shade, one that compliments your skin tone and eye colour. First attempt at Platinum blond for men's hair using Schwarzkopf Live Men 100% Permanent Colour Hair Dye. After Facebook messaging them i was told to call their support line, I tried on multiple days for 30 mins and could not get through. I followed the advice to try Schwarzkopf Colour & Care Live 5min Colour Boost Semi Permanent Hair Mask 150ml which was easy to apply and seemed to take down the yellowing (also did on dry hair as well as damp as some youtubers claimed that made it even more effective) and also use the Schwarzkopf LIVE Silver Shampoo 200ml which helped with the orange.

The latest trends in color will include: pastel tones, gray and silver, dark brown hair and an abundance of balayage! Always perform an Allergy Alert Test 48 hours before each time you colour, even if you’ve used the product before It’s also crucial to follow the instructions to a T if you're attempting an at-home dye job,’ she says. Although you may be in a rush to see just how much more fun blondes have (can vouch), she warns not to ignore the instructions. Our panel was divided about whether the instructions were easy to follow, and some found it fiddly to use, but if you’re a seasoned box dyer, this shouldn’t be a problem.

LIVE Spicy Blonde uses a 2 in 1 formula to lighten your hair while adding glossy, caramel blonde tones. A majority of synthetic hair dyes contain chemicals known as aromatic amines that are not only associated with health risks, but may bioaccumulate in our ecosystem. Hair salon wastewater has been found to contain colour molecules unconsumed by the dye process, as well as mutagenic byproducts, that are not believed to be effectively removed from our water systems. Choosing a plant-based, ppd-free hair dye like Lush henna reduces the number of these materials in circulation. The product is easy enough to setup and use, the product is strong when used near your face so keep a window open! It can irritate eyes or breathing when you get a strong whiff of it! Heat protectors, bond-building treatments and purple shampoos are the perfect trio for topping up your tone and keeping hair soft and healthy,’ Jordanna explains. ‘I use Wella heat protectors on my clients as well as Wellaplex, which is only available in salons, but there are other alternatives that work in a similar way — it’s all about boosting keratin and protein in the hair to replenish bonds that are broken when bleaching. So, look for the best bond-building treatment for your hair type, as a good one can really bolster hair strength between salon visits.’ Always perform the allergy alert test 48 hours before each time you colour, even if you’ve used the product before

Where To Buy

Golden Hour hair? We say yes, please! This mix of brown and blonde exists and it's called LIVE Intense Colour Spicy Blonde B09. A vegan formula created for those with blonde or light brown hair wanting to achieve a caramel hair colour to compliment their skin and highlight their eyes. It also contains a built-in protective oil and guarantees high grey coverage. We can make this dreamy golden sunset last all day long! If you’re looking for a bolder style, go for a pearly color tone or some glitter highlights or even hair tinsel!

I always suggest Wella Colour Fresh 0/6 or 10/81 for colour touch-ups at home to my clients,' Jordanna tells us. Cutting down the frequency of hair wash day (sorry gym girlies, we know the struggle) and using cooler water when you shower will also help keep hair that little bit more Margot. How we test
