Sunset

Unlike a flame ombre, the color starts warm at the scalp and keeps warming, so the whole head is bright and the palest gold sits at the very tips. The three bands need applying wet into wet so no hard edge shows. Against a light source the gold ends can look almost translucent. All three shades are direct dyes on pre-lightened hair, so every wash pulls some out, and the pink usually goes first while the gold holds longest.

• Undertonewarm. Every band in the blend is warm, so it flatters golden, tan and deep skin, and with no dark root there is no cool contrast to sit behind on fair skin.
• Starting pointThis needs the whole head lifted to a pale yellow, roots included, which means a full bleach on any natural color darker than a light blonde.
• UpkeepFull re-application every four to six weeks, cold water washes to slow the pink loss, and serious conditioning because the lift goes all the way to the scalp.
