Clients were going nuts for reds already this season and now with Pantone’s reveal of Viva Magenta as its colour of the year, it’s time to get busy! Steer your braver clients to this exuberant shade of red for a high impact result. Hairdresser Teresa Weller has a great suggestion working with Revlon colour to create your preference of Viva Magenta inspired reds. .
Create your Viva Magenta
Theresa is director at Theresa Weller Hair Art and thebridalhairartists.com so knows a thing or two about client taste for both commercial wearability, and for more dramatic impact. She notes that Viva Magenta signals ‘strength, vim and vigour’.
This image (above) was created using Revlon Professional Revlonissimo Cromatics C50 (purple red) and Revlon Professional Nutri Color Filters to enhance the depth and add some serious shine. The perfect accompaniment to Pantone’s colour for 2023. Theresa says: “This crimson red tone that presents a balance between warm and cool is bold and fearless, perfect for clients looking to take back their power in 2023.”
Alternatively try this:
Working with hair pieces, Theresa created this look (above). She says: “We utilised a mix of balayage and foliage techniques, weaving in a few yellow strands for some extra ‘extra’! Tape-in extensions were pre-coloured in varying shades of red and copper to help turn up the heat even more.
Viva Magenta!
Be brave – taking Inspo from the Viva Magenta reference but don’t be slavish. Interpret it. Theresa advises: “Nature is always an inspiration when it comes to hair colour and this shade is no different. From a dazzling shade of crimson or cherry red, to more subtle incarnations, it can transform any style, adding some serious wow along the way. I love a deep, fire-inspired tone [such as this second look] but the beauty of this shade is that it works wonderfully well on all skin tones: for warmer skin tones, cool, ashy reds work beautifully (think honey or strawberry-blonde, or golden copper), while cooler skin tones are suited well to deeper reds or light auburn shades.”
