This lively multi-color look from Goldwell's new FasciNature collection features a refined violet-ash base and an explosion of fiery color in the fringe area. The color perfectly complements the modern undercut, which provides limitless styling opportunities. For the color technique, the Color Zoom Creative Team developed "The Butterfly Effect"—a color placement inspired by the shape of butterfly wings.
