About Chocolate

Chocolate brown can be applied directly to most dark hair without lightening. It’s also a good choice for darkening light hair, though going back to a lighter shade after a dark color is harder. A color-safe shampoo and the occasional gloss treatment are enough to keep it shiny.

It looks very natural on warm and neutral undertones and creates contrast on fair skin. On curly hair it adds depth between the curls, and on long straight hair a mirror-like shine. It’s also a popular choice for covering grays.

How do I choose between chocolate brown and jet black?

Chocolate is warmer and softer, jet black crisper and more dramatic. On fair skin, chocolate usually looks more natural. Try both on the same photo and compare them side by side.

Does chocolate brown cover gray hair?

Applied as permanent color, it usually covers well. If you have a lot of gray, your colorist will adjust the formula.
