Steampunk Chic

"I'm working with a lot of metallic fashion colors this fall/winter season. Using the Silver Concentrate allows me to tone level 10 blondes a true metallic silver. Also on level 10, our Gray Concentrate creates the most amazing gunmetal gray." Jennifer Andrews, Creative Director

Embodying an adventurous pastiche of romantic, neo-Victorian fripperies and steely accents, Creative Director Jennifer Andrews paints an edgier picture of Organic Salon Systems' color brand.

Dispelling the myth that natural-based color must be conservative, Jennifer Andrews dips into Organic Color System’s well of metallics, smoky ashes and vibrant pastels to not only reveal her take on steampunk beauty, but also the reality of what this color brand can do for your creativity behind the chair.
