Ashy, Cool-Toned Brunette
By Farhana Premji
Say goodbye to golden dimension and hello to all-over ash! Winter is coming which means cool tones are about to be in high demand. Get ahead of the season by checking out how BTC Team Member Farhana Premji (@xo.farhana.balayage) achieved this classic (and stunning!) cool-toned brunette. But first, peep her genius trick for toning cooler brunettes:
“The only way to achieve a true cool-toned brunette is to lift higher than the desired end result and to deposit down at least two levels,” shares Farhana. “It’s almost like doing a tint-back without using a filler formula. You’ll get a more matte result, which is essentially what ash-brown tones are!”
Got it? Good! Now keep scrolling for her color formulas and application steps.
