Celebrities continue to drive trends. During awards season, Dua Lipa unveiled a shade of dark brown with a burgundy tint that quickly became known as Cherry Cola. The shade adds warmth and depth to fair and medium skin tones, but it also adds dramatic flair to darker skin tones.

With these formulas and Satin Hair Color’spermanent range of expertly crafted hair color, you can duplicate both looks. 

DUA LIPA’S CHERRY COLA

“This color is best achieved on natural levels 5 to 7, which allows the ‘cherry’ in the cherry cola to really stand out, but you can also add a pop of color to ‘faded out’ brunettes with a simple gloss applied from scalp to ends,” says Lisa Finucane, Satin Hair's Director of Education and Sales.

  1. Satin Hair Color 5MR mixed 1:2 with Satin Hair Color 10-Volume Developer

  2. Apply to the roots for 35 minutes 

  3. Gloss the ends for the last 20 minutes: ½ 5MR mixed 1:2 with Satin Hair Color Demi Developer
