When sunny and warm summer days are finally on the horizon, most ladies are ready to freshen up their look with a new cut or color in anticipation. While your first instinct might be to match the weather with warm tones like gold, honey, caramel, and chestnut, we argue that the best approach to the changing season is the new cool-toned hair color trend taking over: mushroom brown hair.
What Is Mushroom Brown Hair Color?
Mushroom brown hair color is any hair color from the brown palette that resembles the cap of the portobello mushroom. It is neutral or more on the cooler side and can incorporate some creamy or ashy tones. The multi-dimensional hair shade gets its rich blended color from an ashy base that’s layered with highlights and lowlights. Sticking with only cool to neutral brown and blonde shades is the ultimate key to getting the earthy tint.
