- Elemental inspiration: Earthy browns, deep forest greens, ocean blues, and fiery coppers-all shades that feel like they were plucked from the natural world.
- Ancient & Mystical Tones: Think colors that evoke old magic-smoky grays, runic silvers, medieval reds, and faded gothic hues.
- Ethereal & otherworldly Shades: The haunting beauty of celestial whites, soft lavender and pastel mists, and spectral blues.
- Aged & Timeless Appeal: Hair color that looks like it belongs to an old soul, whether its rich, faded, or dusted with a sense of ancient wisdom.
