The Industry Leader in Professional Haircolor Names Champagne Blonde with A Kiss of Rose the Trendiest Color for 2023

NEW YORK, Jan. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Keep the toasts coming in the new year with Redken's newly announced Haircolor of the Year for 2023 – Champagne Blonde with a Kiss of Rose. While various shades of blonde have been trending in the last few years, stylists, influencers and celebrities have started to "warm up" the hue for a softer and more natural look that is flattering on all hair types, textures and skin tones. As the No.1 professional hair brand in the US* and pioneer in professional haircare and color, Redken is leading the charge in making it easier than ever to go "Champagne Blonde" by expanding its best-selling Shades EQ collection. In honor of the trending color, the brand is officially naming Champagne Blonde with A Kiss of Rose as the 2023 Haircolor of The Year!

The Haircolor of The Year: Champagne Blonde with a Kiss of Rose

With over 60,000 hashtag mentions and a 60 percent increase in searches, Champagne Blonde is an emerging haircolor trend. Requested to stylists by celebs and influencers around the nation, the Champagne Blonde haircolor is taking over social media feeds. To achieve this champagne trend in the past, stylists had to mix multiple shades together to create this custom color for their clients. Now, Redken is taking the guesswork out of the mixing process by introducing the NEW Shades EQ Gloss Bonder Inside Gold Rose Family. The three new Gold Rose shades allow stylists to easily create a custom Champagne Blonde color, dubbed Champagne Blonde with a Kiss of Rose. Formulated with the perfect blend of gold & subtle rose reflects, the Gold Rose family shades elevate the champagne haircolor trend by creating luminous and reflective blonde shades with a twist.

The Gold Rose shades offer a unique, modern blonde finish that is wearable for all hair types, textures, and skin tones. Champagne Blonde with A Kiss of Rose is a perfect golden shade, with very subtle hints of rose. Sport the Haircolor of the Year with the help of Redken's Shades EQ Bonder Inside Gold Rose Family, which features three new shades: Sparkling Wine (010GRo), Blush Spritz (09GRo) and Golden Fizz (07GRo). The gold tonal breakdown of these shades provides warmth without brass and enhances vibrancy. The rose tonal breakdown is calibrated to natural undertones at each level and provides a subtle rose reflection.

"One of my favorite blonde colors for 2023 is Champagne Blonde with a Kiss of Rose because it is the perfect blend of gold and added soft rose tones," explains Matt Rez, Redken Brand Ambassador and Celebrity Colorist. "It is a soft, neutral color, with a strong emphasis on shine, that resembles a glass of your favorite sparkling drink. It's a blonde that looks good on everyone!"
