2. Linen Green

Linen Green combines the misty tones of brown and green, creating a subtle and playful neutral color. It's understated yet intriguing, with the added benefits of reducing braZssiness and eliminating unwanted red tones in the hair, making it particularly suitable for individuals with Asian skin tones.



3. Chocolate Brown

The timeless and unbeatable Chocolate Brown is based on coffee tones, offering a balanced depth without the heaviness of black hair. It complements all skin tones and styles effortlessly, giving a youthful and irresistible feminine charm.



4. Honey Brown

Honey Brown is a color reminiscent of autumn maple leaves, blending shades of orange and brown. It imparts a soft and weightless look, enhancing your overall appearance even without makeup. This popular shade is a hit in South Korea.



2024 Complexion-Enhancing Hair Colors

"A fair complexion covers a multitude of flaws", and many women aspire to have a lighter skin tone. If you want to take a big leap towards achieving that, consider opting for a hair color that enhances your complexion.

1. Warm Berry Red

Red hair colors generally have the ability to brighten up the complexion. The warm berry red, with its occasional hints of purple and red, beautifully highlights the skin, giving it a soft and porcelain-like appearance.



2. Misty Ash Blue

Gray shades work wonders in neutralizing yellow undertones in the skin. The low saturation of misty ash blue not only exudes an air of sophistication but also carries a mysterious allure, thanks to its matte finish.



3. Caramel Milk Tea Brown

Caramel milk tea is a shade that many consider to be goddess-worthy. With a base reminiscent of milk tea, it creates an overall warm-toned effect. It adds a vibrant touch to those with warm undertones, while enhancing the delicate and smooth complexion of those with fair skin.



4. Platinum Blonde

Known as the hair color of enchanting spirits, platinum blonde is a perfect blend of ethereal beauty and a mixed-race aesthetic. This shade is not only incredibly complexion-flattering but also enhances the brightness of your features and skin tone to the utmost level. Be prepared to turn heads and attract attention wherever you go!



2024 Non-Bleach Hair Colors

Many people desire vibrant hair colors but hesitate due to the damage and fragility caused by bleaching. Non-bleach hair colors have become the new favorite for those who want eye-catching shades without the need for bleaching.

1. Black Tea Brown

When it comes to versatile hair colors beyond black, nothing beats the elegance of black tea brown. This cool-toned coffee shade, infused with black undertones, offers a lightweight, smooth, and youthful appearance all at once.



2. Blackcurrant Purple

With its rich and slightly dusty undertones, blackcurrant purple exudes an elegant yet romantic charm. This shade is incredibly versatile and suits women with fair, warm, and dark skin tones alike. It also has the ability to create the illusion of voluminous hair.



3. Midnight Blue-Black

Midnight blue-black hair color requires no bleaching and is easy to maintain. In normal lighting, it appears almost black, but when sunlight hits the hair, a hint of blue undertones emerges, drawing attention and exuding a poised and sophisticated aura. It's a subtle yet captivating ethereal shade that adds a touch of understated elegance to your look.

4. Rose Red

Also known as "Ocean Red", this shade resembles the vibrant red hair of Princess Mera portrayed by Amber Heard in the movie "Aquaman". The highly saturated rose red color not only enhances your complexion but also brings a sense of clarity and transparency. It effortlessly combines fashion and individuality, making a bold and stylish statement.

2024 Hair Highlights

If you're not keen on bleaching your entire head but still want to experiment with lighter hair shades, highlights are a more manageable option. By incorporating simple styling techniques, you can add depth and dimension to your hair.

1. Parisian Balayage

With Parisian balayage, you can achieve a seamless gradient effect from roots to ends, emphasizing blurred lines and soft transitions. This technique typically involves lightening only 30% to 50% of the hair towards the ends, creating a lighter and more airy feel compared to solid black hair. Recommended color combinations include berry purple, silver gray, creamy blonde, and coral pink.



2. Line Art Highlights

An elevated version of hand-painted highlights, line art highlights are the ultimate "gray hair camouflage" solution. This technique focuses on strong lines and defined boundaries, highlighting smaller sections of hair. Two contrasting colors intertwine, creating a trendy and effortlessly chic look. Recommended color combinations include deep brown with silver gray, smoky black with silver blue, and chocolate brown with milk tea gold.



3. Dual-tone Highlights

In comparison to line art highlights, dual-tone highlights offer a larger range of coloring, primarily focusing on the inner layers of the hair to create a striking contrast between the two layers. Recommended color combinations include misty brown with warm orange, milk tea brown with smoky purple, and black with blue-gray.

4. Windblown Highlights

Subtle and understated, windblown highlights are similar to ear-cuff highlights, where a small section of hair near the ear is highlighted. These highlights peek through when you tuck your hair behind your ear or when the wind gently tousles your locks. Recommended color options include linen green, warm berry red, and soft misty gray.
