Aimee Lou Wood has swapped her post–White Lotus sun-drenched bronde for a rich brunette with tonal depth and dimension. Tracey Cunningham (@traceycunningham1), co-owner of Mèche Salon in Beverly Hills, used Schwarzkopf Professional® to create a cool, lived-in brunette with seamless blends and ashy lows.

She didn’t lose the warmth entirely—but she did say goodbye to the beloved Chelsea character (see below) with a deeper, moodier tone that signals a new chapter.

FORMULA STEPS

  1. Begin by placing lowlights throughout the hair using a mix of Formula A, Formula B and Formula C, depending on desired tone and depth in each section.
  2. Apply Formula D between highlights and lowlights to create a soft transition zone and eliminate any harsh lines.
  3. Once rinsed, apply Formula E through the midlengths to add multidimensional shine and unify the overall tone.
  4. Process, rinse and style as desired.
