Chocolate Brown Peekaboo

A warm mid-brown panel under a near-black base, quiet enough that it registers as dimension instead of a second color.

The two tones sit close together, which makes this the quietest peekaboo of the set. Under artificial light the underside simply looks like the hair has dimension; step outside and the panel resolves into a distinct warm brown with red sitting in the base of it. Because the gap is only two or three levels, it needs far less lift than any of the vivid panels, and the grow-out line is nearly impossible to see.

Undertonewarm, neutral. Its red-brown warmth belongs with golden and olive skin, and on cool complexions it gives the black above it somewhere to breathe.
Starting pointBlack or very dark brown hair still needs a couple of levels lifted on the panel, but nothing close to bleach-blonde, so the condition cost stays low.
UpkeepA brown gloss around every ninth week keeps the warmth from going muddy, and daily styling asks nothing extra of you.
