This quick and easy color placement technique from the z.one concept Red Collection involves square and triangular sections which allow you to create “hidden color” that can be displayed or concealed. The color palette combines bright and rich copper tones, but that’s just the beginning! This technique can be done with any color combination from palest blonde to deep brunette and beyond.
