Natural Caramel Copper Balayage

2024 has been the year of golden warm and coppery hair colors and this one is one of my favorites so far! It’s still vibrant and lived-in while maintaining a level of sophistication and professionalism that is called for in the business world.

I went through with highlights using Schwarzkopf Blonde Me premium bleach to lighten their natural hair light enough to see the goal shade.

Using Schwarzkopf Vibrance as my toning gloss with formula:

20g 7-57 + 10g 7-77 + 20g 9-7 + 10g 0-00 (clear) + 6vol Gloss developer

I put a plastic processing cap over this and actually sat my client under the warmer for ~15 minutes to allow the color to shift the natural base (as if a base breaker) and add coppery caramel tones to the newly lifted highlights.

For the haircut they don’t like their ends feeling too heavy so I layer to help avoid too much bulk, giving a bunch of movement and letting the dimension in the hair color show even more.

Christopher can transform dark coarse hair into pretty copper and fall like tones. He can also work with fine hair, curly and wavy hair, whether it’s hair color or just cutting and styling in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
