Nataly Maldonado, a colorist at Booster Cat salon in Lake Worth, Florida, says bronde is perfect for "when you want a lot of brightness throughout your hair, but you don't want to look like you're trying too hard to be a blonde." It can lean more brunette or more blonde, she adds - whatever you happen to prefer.īronde is also a beautifully practical option for transitioning into either lighter or darker color - a hair-color hack celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Megan Thee Stallion, and Margot Robbie have all known for years. Sure, that sounds like a lofty promise, but with the wide variety of ways to wear it - balayage highlights, ombré, shadow roots - we're sure there’s a bronde hair look for you. A portmanteau of brown and blonde, the hair color works for every season and just about everyone. Or, you can make like hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos, who used Lime Crime's Unicorn Hair in Valentine to create Megan Fox’s recent red-velvet bob.We used to call bronde "dirty blonde" back in the day, but a look this lovely definitely deserves a more respectful name. “Upkeep on reds can be a lot, and this is one of the hardest colors to keep,” says O’Connor, who recommends coloring your roots and getting a glaze every four to six weeks. “Colorists should be educating you on the right shade for your skin tone, and you should trust them enough to take their advice.” You’ll also want to set some realistic expectations. “Ask your colorist, ‘does this work for me, or is there something better for my skin tone?’” Dean suggests. Of course, that’s not to say you need an MFA to get the best red. “A cool-toned red, for example, will complement someone with pink undertones, while a copper-toned red can make blue eyes stand out.” “With reds, it’s always good to think of how it will contrast with your skin tone and eye color,” says O’Connor. “The brighter, the better, like a red-velvet crimson.” Unlike red-velvet cake, though - which is just chocolate with some food coloring (sorry) - red-velvet hair is an expert-level art form. “ Reds will continue to have their moment in 2024,” says O’Connor. Toasted pecan redĪ bold, in-your-face color? For 2024? Told you this year wouldn’t be boring. If you’re hoping for a realistic mushroom hue that lasts, you may want to test this color out in early spring, fall, or winter. Just note that a true neutral bronde tone is tricky to maintain in summer months due to sunlight oxidation, says Richards. Because the shade toes the line between warm and cool, it can work with virtually all skin tones and undertones, whether you go for a single-process shade or mushroom-brown highlights. “The beauty and popularity of true mushroom brown is that it’s inspired by the range of browns we’re naturally born with,” says Richards. “We’re nearing the end of the super-cold and smoky gray, and we’re seeing it be replaced with a softer and more realistic mushroom brown.” Which, in case you don’t have your carton of porcinis on hand, looks like a neutral taupe with golden tones. “ Mushroom hair started out as drastic and bold, but it’s landing in a much more wearable place for 2024,” says Dean. Cold, ashy, gray, and washed-out - which, might we remind you, bears little resemblance to the true bronzy tones of an actual mushroom. In years past, mushroom brown has been synonymous with…cold.
