Wella Professional Master Colorist Eva Scrivo loves luscious, rich color this season. Here, she gives a model a warm brunette shade created with multiple hues for added depth and dimension. Mixing up different formulas and volumes of developers allows Scrivo maximum creativity. “It is a wonderful range of brightness offering different tonal values and warmth in the hair,” she says. “This creates subtle variations without having to reformulate.”
“This season I love making brown interesting and gorgeous,” says Wella Professional Master Colorist Eva Scrivo says. “It’s all about shine, multidimensional color and a luscious finish.” To achieve these different hues, Scrivo not only utilizes different formulas, she likes to mix up the volume of developers.

Continue up to the top and front, massaging the color into each section to help the gold pigment come back to the hair. Process for 20 minutes and rinse with Performance Plus. Towel dry 50 percent.
Section the hair creating a Mohawk and three sections on either side of the head. Goal is to maintain some light golden highlights around face while adding three different shades of milk chocolate, rich espresso and dark golden blonde throughout. Start in front of ear using 9/36 (golden blonde) with 13-volume developer. Continue on each side of temple applying color from roots to ends.
In the second side section apply 7/73 (golden light brown) with 6-volume developer from roots to end. Continue to massage the color into each section.
In sections five and six (back sections), apply 4/77 (rich warm chocolate) with 13-volume developer.
Along the Mohawk, apply 5/73 (golden milk chocolate) with 13 volume.
Process for 20 minutes and rinse with Performance Plus.
