What To Ask For:
Cool-toned, toffee highlights on a rich brown base
This high-shine style has a secret: The toffee color is done in cool tones, instead of the usual warm ones. “It starts with a deep, dark chocolate and melts into a lighter, milky one,” Kimberly explains. The result is a sombré that looks natural and healthy. To score this result, it’s imperative to avoids any lines of demarcation, so be sure your colorist plans to execute a classic ombré technique or to melt the color with their hands. “When I do this service, I tease the individual section of hair, and then weave it and apply color, isolating it in a foil to create a very natural, sun-kissed look,” Kimberly points out.
Upkeep: “Not having the highlights deliberately coming from the root makes this look a very commitment-free trend,”Kimberly says. If done properly, the look doesn’t need to be touched up, but you can freshen with a color gloss up to once a month.
