Michelle Billington, hair expert at Jerome Russell Bblonde, reveals the secrets of Cherry Cola hair.

“Cherry cola hair, rooted in purple tones unlike typical reds, offers a deep, rich burgundy. It’s subtly muted compared to other reds, creating a unique, vibrant colour that sparkles differently in varying lighting.

Versatile shade

This versatile shade’s popularity stems from its adaptability. It suits all skin tones as you can adjust the balance of red and purple tones, creating a personalised cherry cola hue—warmer or cooler. Note, the final shade depends on your hair’s base colour. Dark hair requires pre-bleaching (Jerome Russell Bblonde Ultra Blonding Kit, £7.99) for an 8-9 shade lift.

The Ultra Blonding Kit not only lifts shades but also cares for your hair. Its unique Jplex formula enhances elasticity and strength while lightening, reinforcing bonds damaged during bleaching, and leaving hair strong, smooth, and healthy.

Consider your skin tone

Post-bleaching, opt for a permanent or semi-permanent at-home colour based on how committed you are to the shade. Consider your skin tone and undertone for the desired red or purple intensity. Always conduct a patch test before full application.

Maintaining coloured hair requires overall hair health. I recommend our JPLEX 4-step system which includes a Primer, Shampoo, Conditioner, and Maintainer (from £9.99). These products penetrate hair, strengthening and repairing damaged strands. Regular use, especially on coloured or bleached hair, ensures long-lasting, vibrant colour.”
