Colour Inspiration

@ 09:48 AM (25 months, 6 days ago)
I've been Googling for inspiration at work, looking for places to find interesting colours. Somehow I have to transfer these sources of inspiration into hair colour, but that's the hard part. Right now, it's the fun design stage, and I'm enjoying the freedom of working on models and not worrying about the longevity of the colour (or if the subject likes the idea of wearing copper and green hair!!) And in the end, the really difficult thing is how to manage these colours on dark Portugese hair! Oh well, I enjoy a challenge...

Alex mentioned copper and green, a patina.

Wine is an obvious choice for dark hair. We'll probably pair it with bright red, like these leaves, and a few hints of orange.

We'll try one blond as well, so white wine is a good inspiration, especially with greens in mind.

Going back to the oxidized theme, this one might be my favorite colour pallate.

It will be interesting to see how we actually translate these ideas into hair colour. I'm sure I'll post plenty of pictures after the show.
