DIVING INTO THE COLOR WHEEL

At its core, the color wheel is your BFF in the quest for perfect hair color. It's not just a pretty circle with colors; it's the Rosetta Stone of hair coloring. This visual tool explains how colors interact, blend, and contrast with each other. Ever aimed for a specific hair color and ended up with an unexpected surprise? The color wheel is here to ensure those surprises are always pleasant.

THE ABCS OF COLOR

Primary Colors:

Red, yellow, and blue – the trio that starts it all. These are the colors that can’t be created by mixing others. They’re the OGs of the color spectrum.

Secondary Colors:

When you play matchmaker with the primaries, you get the stunning secondary colors – orange, green, and purple. It’s like mixing a bit of your personality with your best friend’s to create an unbeatable duo.

Intermediate Colors:

Imagine your primary and secondary colors had a baby. The result? Gorgeous intermediate shades like red-orange, yellow-orange, yellow-green, blue-green, blue-purple, and red-purple. These are the colors that add spice and everything nice to your hair.

Complementary Colors: The Power Couple

Opposites attract, and in the world of color, they complement. Complementary colors sit across from each other on the wheel, like purple and yellow or red and green. When mixed, they can neutralize each other, creating rich, natural shades or preventing unwanted muddy outcomes. Dreaming of bold contrasts or subtle harmonies? Complementary colors are your go-to.

TAILORING HAIR COLOR TO YOUR CANVAS

The journey to your ideal hair color starts with understanding your base – be it virgin territory or a canvas already painted with the hues of your adventures past.

Natural Base:

Your natural hair color is your foundation with distinct undertones that can impact the appearance of your hair color. The lighter your natural starting shade, the more visible your hair color will be.

Processed Blonde:

If you’re starting with blonde, think of it as a blank canvas with undertones that can influence your final creation. For example, warmer blonde shades will have golden or yellow undertones that can impart yellow hues into whatever hair color you put over them. Want to shift those undertones? The color wheel offers a palette of options to tweak and tune to your heart’s content. In this case, the addition of purple can help neutralize unwanted yellow tones.

Faded Color:

For the serial color adventurers, transitioning from one faded color to another is an art. Similar to starting with processed blonde hair, coloring over existing color will blend the old shade with the new. Using the color wheel ensures your next hair hue transition is as smooth as your favorite playlist.
