HOW TONERS FIT INTO YOUR STYLE

Whether you regularly visit your stylist for colour or like to keep things more low-key – having an understanding of colour and what to ask for in the salon is essential. From contrasting and complementary colour theory and the difference between warm, cool, and neutral tones, these are just a few of the beauty secrets stylists want clients to be tuned in to. Not sure where to start with TONERS? DESIGN.DIRECTOR Kate Reid offers her advice. “These fashion-forward reflects are the new staples of the salon. I love using LAVENDER and CRYSTAL to cool off any blonde or to filter violet or red shades to create a unique long lasting coolness. And I’m obsessed with the new GOLD. TONER. I love using it with APRICOT to create a new neo pop of colour or with CRYSTAL for a natural sun kissed effect with lots of shine.”

A PERSONALISED TOUCH

Adding to this perspective on design, “Everything in the whole world is more personalised today, and this continues with hair,” says DESIGN.DIRECTOR Kate Reid in a recent Conversations with Kevin episode – NEW COLOR.ME TONERS: CRYSTAL, GOLD, LAVENDER with Founder and Creative Director, Kevin Murphy. Listen along to learn just how these new TONERS will help change the results stylists are able to achieve in the salon as we continue to push the envelope and find ourselves through more personalised style because colour is at the helm of it all.

The Best Root Touch-Up for Maintaining Your Hair Color at Home, According to Stylists

Kate Reid, the global COLOR.ME design director, recommends the brand’s Retouch Me spray, if you want a quick, discreet way to conceal roots without messing up your hair color. The super fine pigments in this spray blend seamlessly with your existing shade to hide grow out without the gross, sticky residue. It's lightweight, fast-drying, and comes in four hues. Just shake the bottle well and spray a light mist evenly across the area you wish to cover. (For fuller coverage, just pass over the area a couple times to create a layer.)
