The Secret to Perfect Pastel Hair
Pastel hair is here to stay. The colour trend is sweeping Instagram, with candyfloss pink, mint green, icy blue and orange sorbet shades going viral. Inspired? You should be – especially as these colours are really easy to wear. If you’re ready to try summer’s freshest look, The Colour Equation will help you pick the right shade for your skin tone…
What is The Colour Equation?
It’s the code that ensures your colour choice stands out, developed by Wella Professionals’ scientific research team. Through eye tracking technology, they looked at skin tone, eye colour and hair colour, and discovered that you get the most attractive results when 1 of the 3 factors is contrasting. For example, if your skin and eyes are cool-toned, then warm-toned pastel hair, like an orange crush, is going to look incredible on you. If your eyes are warm and your skin is cool (or vice-versa), you can go for intensely warm or vibrantly cool-toned colours for maximum impact. Now you know the equation, find inspiration for your salon colour…
