Wella Professionals has introduced a new era of sunkissed looks, from soft browns, golden or nude blondes to copper reds. Here, Wella shows you how to re-create the cut, color and style for this summer sombre.

This look uses Magma by Blondor, a 2-in-1 system that lifts hair and tones at the same time, even if the hair was previously colored. Magma features 11 shades, provides up to six levels of lift and provides a less striking and more natural look for your clients.

Colorists can use Magma when applying foil highlights, freehand lightening, artistic blending or creative toning to their clients.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The ability for Magma to lift and tone simultaneously has to do with how the technology works inside and outside of the hair. Inside the hair, a special combination of different lightening molecules evenly distributes into the hair to gradually and evenly lighten dyes and melanin. Outside of the hair, a fine blend of direct dyes deposit on the first layer of the hair cuticles to tone the hair.

Traditional direct dyes cannot be intermixed with bleaches as they will become unstable at the high pH levels of the bleach environment. Magma's direct dyes are specifically designed to be stable at the high pH levels of bleaches. The special distribution of electrons in the SpectraLift Technology "protects" the dye molecule from the high pH levels of the bleach environment.
