Haute Chocolate Anyone?

Going au natural is in—and we’re not talking about running around in your birthday suit! Maybe it’s a sign of the times, or maybe more women are embracing the looks that their mammas gave them, but we couldn’t help but notice that on the Golden Globes and SAG Awards red carpets, many of Hollywood’s leading ladies donned haircolor hues much closer to their natural shades. A lot of celebs have been returning to more natural haircolors. Kate Hudson’s color is a nice golden blonde with lighter, brighter pieces around her face only. Hollywood brunettes and redheads are becoming less high-maintenance, too. I’m seeing a lot of darker chocolate browns, like on Tina Fey. For your redheads, take a cue from Amy Adams, whose color is always rich and vibrant, but still low-key. The trick to fabulous-looking haircolor is lots of shine...

Enter....Blonde & Beyond's Paul Mitchell PM SHINES®! Adeposit-only, ammonia-free demi-permanent hair color that features exclusive Intense Hydrating Complex (IHC) that penetrates deep into the hair shaft. PM SHINES adds intense hydration and brilliant shine while delivering true-to-tone color.

Long-Lasting color created by an ammonia-free formula that imparts less structural damage to the hair, providing a smoother, healthier surface.
