Darnell Wold (@hairhegoes) found this wonderful color chart that MODERN reposted. It is receiving lots of love on instagram. Although we hate to call them "normal" people (so insulting) we realize that hairdressers and colorists are different and have a unique vocabulary for color. Hundreds of our words that didn't even make it to the left side of the chart! Seriously! Like where is oyster? Or pearl?

Share with us some of your favorite shades that are missing from this color chart.
