Creating beautiful hair color is a never-ending learning experience. It is a delicate dance between experimentation and technique that can change anytime a client comes in. Being a great colorist doesn’t always mean you get a color formula right the first time around either. It is through trial and error, and an understanding of color theory, that we learn the color methods necessary to create, and correct, beautiful color formulas.

The trends seen at Milan Fashion Week are resonating throughout the industry. With statement designs and bold street style, Milan proves to be one of the most fashion-forward cities in the world. Italy is home to designers such as Emilio Pucci, Missoni, and Dolce & Gabbana – known for their eclectic prints, bright colors and show-stopping style. And in the latest collection from Scruples, Milano Moda, it is no wonder why they chose the city of Milan as their inspiration.

Hair color trends are heating up this season as hair gurus and social medialites alike have chosen a palette of warm tones to accompany us into the summer months. The onset of Blorange, Sunset, and Peach Champagne colors have led the way to the latest trend development – RED!  

This new RED however, is a revised version of a past favorite. Techniques for color placement will play a huge roll in determining hues and transitions from prior shades; we will see more gold tones appear in color formulations as well, leading us into the warm coppers.
