Why You Should Try a Bold Hair Color

Choosing the Right Bold Hair Shade: What You Need to Know

Tempted to try a trendy hair color idea but don’t know where to start? The best place to begin is by deciding if you want to go lighter or darker than your current shade, or to stay around the same tone. Then think about colors you like: maybe you tend to wear magenta a lot or you just love the color of your favorite jeans. Or perhaps everyone tells you that dark purple sweater really brings out your eyes. Once you have a color in mind, consider if cool or warm undertones would work better with your skin tone.

How to Maintain Bold Hair Colors

Keep your bold color vibrant and prevent fading with a sulfate-free color care shampoo like Fructis Color Shield.
Moisture is a loyal ally for intense hair colors, so use conditioner in the shower and consider an Anti-Frizz Leave-In Treatment.
Stay cool by avoiding extreme heat: wash with warm water, shade your hair from direct sun, and air-dry instead of blow-drying.
