Our Top 4 Fantasy Pigments for Brunettes

Take your hair on a colorful journey.


We like to challenge those who say, “blondes have more fun.” With our temporary pigments in Vibrant and Bold intensities, brunettes can achieve some colorful dimension that makes every day feel like an adventure. 

With 22 colorful shades to choose from that wash out over time, there is no shortage of options to experiment with. Every shade can be added to your personalized Conditioner or Masque (or both) with either a Soft, Vibrant, or Bold intensity to achieve your desired shade. 

To get the best brunette-friendly results, be sure to grab one of our Specialists’ recommended pigments below in either a Vibrant or Bold intensity—the rest of your hair adventure is entirely up to you.

Keep in mind, our pigments are not intended to cover gray hair or lift or lighten your current hair color.

Saharan Copper

Known as the King (or Queen) of Deserts, it’s only right that our shimmery shade of Copper is named after the Sahara. Like a crown perched on your head, the reddish peachy tones in this temporary pigment capture the light with every hair flip—especially on brunette hair. Think of it like bringing a little Saharan sunshine with you wherever you go.

Monaco Magenta

Perfect for brunettes, this intense, magenta shade is fit for a chic yacht party or an evening stroll along the coast of Monaco. A glamorous beach town nestled in the French Riviera, Monaco is known for its breathtaking magenta-hued sunsets. Each night, the sky lights up into gorgeous streaks of hot pink—and now you can have this color on your lovely locks as well.

London Red

London is a bustling city with a taste for bold fashion and courageous style choices—and nothing says fearless quite like red-hot hair. Stand out from the crowd with one of our strongest temporary hair dyes in this fiery shade of red, inspired by one of the most daring cities on the planet. Being that this is an intensely pigmented shade of red, brunette hair soaks it in with ease.  As you wash, this deep shade of red will fade into a cool strawberry, fit for a Vivienne Westwood fashion show.
