Game Changer Cherry

Why We Love It

It’s time to switch things up this year with Game Changer Cherry. This deep, cola-inspired hue lets the world know you’re not afraid to think outside the box. With such a wide variety of red undertones, we love this shade for its boldness and versatility. You can choose to go for a fiery red finish or something a little more subtle. Either way, Game Changer Cherry gets you out of your comfort zone so you can start taking on new challenges.

Who It's Best For

As we briefly mentioned, Game Changer Cherry is an incredibly versatile hair colour. This means it can be customised to fit nearly any skin tone or eye colour. Olive complexions might enjoy a warmer, maroon finish while someone with fair skin might fall in love with a brighter, maraschino cherry look to bring out the best in their skin tone. So feel free to make this colour as loud or as quiet as you want to suit your natural beauty.

How to Get It & Keep It

To get Game Changer Cherry at home, you will want to start with a brunette base colour. From there, consider what kind of tones you want to shine in the finished result. 

If you want to have more cool tones, have your colourist mix mahogany and pearl into your hair colour. For warm undertones, ask for a mix of mahogany and copper. Both options will deliver that red, fizzy finish you want from this trending hair colour. 

To maintain the red undertones in this trending hair colour, add our Tint Rinse colour-enhancing treatment into your hair care routine. Try it in the shade Golden Mahogany for a boost of warm red tones or Mahogany Copper for a deeper red finish.

Executive Onyx

Why We Love It

This soft black hair colour means business—and this year, so do you. Executive Onyx is a softer twist on jet-black hair colours that gives your look a natural, matte finish. Whether you’re in the boardroom or grabbing rooftop cocktails, this shade effortlessly delivers quiet luxury in any setting. Plus, it’s a relatively low-maintenance hair colour so you can focus on landing that dream role or starting a new side hustle.

Who It's Best For

Executive Onyx is typically best on lighter to medium skin tones as it gives a striking contrast. That said, this trending hair colour can work on any skin tone with complementary undertones. Just talk to your colourist about your goals and they will be able to guide you in the right direction.

How To Get It & Keep It

Starting with a soft black or darkest brown base is key to getting this hair colour at home. Then, you can ask your colourist to mix in some blue undertones to give Executive Onyx its signature dynamic finish. 

If you're starting with a lighter brunette base, you’ll be able to achieve the colour in stages. Start off by going half a shade to a full shade darker with natural tones to get closer to your final colour goal.

Chocolate Go-Getter

Why We Love It

This dimensional shade of brunette gives you the confidence you need to achieve anything you put your mind to. Chocolate Go-Getter is a rich and inviting shade of brown that can easily transition from season to season or go from day to night. This makes it an endlessly trendy hair colour that evolves with you on whatever path you choose. So go ahead and get your goals, girl!

Who It's Best For

With the right amount of tones mixed in, Chocolate Go-Getter can flatter any skin tone and eye colour. Golden undertones can help bring out the warmth in your skin while cooler tones can help create a bold contrast. Let your colourist know which fits your style best and they will create the custom colour of your dreams.

How To Get It & Keep It

Starting with a brunette base, ask your colourist to add some golden and ash tones to your formula. This will create a soft warmth that gives Chocolate Go-Getter its approachable finish. If you're looking to start with a more subtle look, ask for some natural warmth with neutral tones. 

When you’re in between colour applications, use our Tint Rinse in Warm Beige or Light Brunette. This will give your colour some added vibrancy and help restore its original glow. 

Mahogany Dreamer

Why We Love It

A girl with big dreams needs a bold hair colour to match. Let your inner light shine with Mahogany Dreamer—a chic take on trending red hair colours. According to our colourists, mahogany hues are making a bold comeback. Known for a mix of warm red and violet tones, this hair colour idea offers a range of variations to fit any personal style. The only thing missing is your vibrant personality to complete this look.

Who It's Best For

Whether you have a fair complexion or a darker skin tone, Mahogany Dreamer can be made to flatter your features. To make this hair colour suit you, it’s all about the undertones. If you want to warm up your skin tone, go for a copper or mahogany finish. If you want to create contrast, opt for cooler, true red undertones.

How To Get It & Keep It

To make Mahogany Dreamer your own, consider what your ultimate hair colour goals are. If you’re looking for something soft with a little tonality, ask your colourist to add some natural mahogany to a brunette base. If you want the final result to be a little more bold and adventurous, ask for mahogany tones or a blend of mahogany and red. 

To maintain the reddish undertones of this hair colour, try our Colour Pro Toner in Deep Auburn or Rich Auburn. Either option will revitalise the rich, natural-looking glow of Mahogany Dreamer.
