Where ashy tones in hair colour are out in some parts of the world, it's just what people are ordering in Australia. "Because of our natural surroundings, the earthy, dual tones of mushroom brown work well with the current trends," said Jacky Chan, master stylist at Oscar Oscar Salon in Chadstone. "Despite it being 'brown,' it's also part of the blond family, making it extremely versatile. It's easy to apply over existing balayage to create a whole new look."
Better still, it also looks great on just about everyone: "This colour trend has the flexibility to suit all skin tones and hair colours because it's created using a combination of cool and warm colours," he said. "It can also be adjusted by your colourist to suit the depth of your hair."
