Who It's Best For

This must-try hair colour has a honey-coloured finish, making it flattering on nearly any skin tone, eye colour, and hair texture. It adds warmth to lighter skin tones and a pop of freshness to anyone with a darker complexion. Plus, Butterscotch Blonde looks stunning with beachy waves or a tousled bob, making it perfect for your next summer getaway.

Espresso Martini Brunette

Why We Love It

Inspired by your favourite evening cocktail, Espresso Martini Brunette is a rich, sultry brunette that oozes sophistication.

From the airport lounge to beachside brunch, you’ll feel like the star of the show wherever your summer takes you.

Who It's Best For

Espresso Martini Brunette is perfect for anyone who loves depth and a dash of drama. This hue works beautifully on olive and deeper skin tones. If you have a lighter complexion, ask your colourist to add some warmth with a touch of mahogany or natural golden undertones.

Copper Creamsicle

Why We Love It

Meet your new summer obsession. Copper Creamsicle is a warm, vibrant copper hue softened by creamy, peachy undertones. It’s fiery yet soft, bold yet wearable—like golden hour in hair colour form. Make this nostalgic hue your own and get ready to bring the sunshine everywhere you go.

Who It's Best For

Red hair colours are typically the most flattering on fair to medium skin tones as they complement the natural rosiness in your complexion. That said, if you’re ready to turn heads with this statement shade, our colourists can customise Copper Creamsicle to match your exact skin tone and eye colour.

Colourist Tip

“Copper hair colours tend to fade faster than darker colours. Keep your colour fresh in between colour applications with our Tint Rinse in Copper.” - Silvia M., eSalon Lead Colourist

Lemon Drop Blonde

Why We Love It

Bright, citrusy, and full of life—Lemon Drop Blonde gives your hair a burst of sunny energy. With sunlit highlights and a breezy blonde base, it’s the ultimate beachy look. Simply paint on some balayage highlights using our Light Set to achieve a naturally sunkissed look that brightens with each use.

Who It's Best For

Lemon Drop Blonde naturally flatters anyone with cool or neutral skin tones, especially if you love a brighter blonde that’s light and airy. It’s the perfect look for blondes looking to refresh dull tones or for those going lighter for the first time.

Colourist Tip
