Every winter, hair trends embrace light, warm tones to banish dullness. In January 2017, brunettes fell for 'Tiger's Eye' coloring, inspired by the quartz gem's captivating orange hues, achieved by lightening select strands for bold impact. This season, we're seeing a more refined take: 'gingerbread' coloring—or 'latte gingerbread flavor' as it's known across the Atlantic—is captivating stylists and clients alike.
What defines this ideal winter look? Start with a rich 'black coffee' base, then weave in subtle coppery highlights reminiscent of gingerbread, much like adding milk to coffee reveals varied brown shades, according to PopSugar. This smooth, ultra-sophisticated effect warms any complexion, offering a fresh change without going overboard.
