MAKE THE MOOD BOARD YOURS

How to choose your favorite look

Compare the pink-gold balance at a similar brightness. A blush blonde can feel almost neutral beside a vivid copper-pink, even though both may be described as rose gold. Decide whether you want the pink to be a small reflection or the main color.

What to discuss with your colorist

Explain how much peach, pink, and gold you want to see. Show your preferred root depth and tell your colorist about older color through the lengths. A light pastel-looking reference may require more preparation than its soft appearance suggests.

Think about upkeep before you decide

A rose-gold result can shift as the pink reflection fades, especially on different starting shades. Ask which refresh approach suits the balance you chose, and avoid assuming every pink conditioner will recreate a golden rose finish.
