Down to Earth
This seasons’ trends are down to earth and inspired by the wild textures and shades of nature that are in full-force at this time of year. Women’s hair is natural with a touch of rebellion and hair colour is an intense shade of red and orange that is painted on for a fiery finish. Nails are natural with delicate detail placed sparingly for a minimalist yet striking effect whereas makeup contrasts this with lips drenched in high shine burgundy colours and eyes making a statement in deep plum and metallic berry shades.

This month, Wella Colour Savvy brings you the Textural Colour Effects collection. Within these three looks they have created a deliberate random play of light and dark, soft and dense colour, in synergy with cut, style and texture.
See how to create these gorgeous textural colour effects below or book a Wella Colour Savvy taster session through your local store. The session teaches you top industry tips, techniques and trends using Wella Professional products so you can create these must-have textural effects for your clients right now.
