Serendipitously, that aforementioned week, Aveda emailed me about their new bounce blush line, Culture Clash. The band appearance amazing active colors aggressive by the beard models themselves — one of which happens to be a delicate blue, which they abundantly offered to dye my beard with. Don’t get me wrong, I adulation a acceptable dejected bob, but my anemic appearance and burghal roots agency it’s absolutely accessible for me to attending like a capital goth.
Luckily, one of the appropriate things about Aveda’s blush accumulating is that it’s absolutely customizable. The ambit of tones and hues they action is so all-inclusive that any beard dream can be realized. Alike my appeal for “gold beard that looks aflush back it catches the light” was, apparently, attainable.
So, one albino evening, I headed on bottomward to the Aveda Academy, area Global Artistic Director Ian Michael Black spent the abutting three and a bisected hours anxiously arresting my hair. Admittedly, I was nervous. I accept some not-great memories of bearded adventures with box blush in my college-dorm bathroom. Obviously, this was a actual altered experience: Aveda’s beard dyes are fabricated with 96% artlessly acquired color. They alter the acrid chemicals begin in accepted abiding beard blush with accustomed ingredients. For example, instead of silicone, they use capital oils. So the accomplished affair smelled absolutely nice and didn’t abrade my attic like I had expected.

Is it too abundant to say that I am bedeviled with this hair? It’s aggregate I’ve anytime wanted. It’s a little bit added chill than I anticipated, but I’m admiring it. It’s so absolute for the months amid winter and spring, back you appetite to alpha accumulation ablaze colors, but it’s still freezing outside.
I’m additionally afraid at how adulatory blush is, as a beard color. I feel like it warms up my accomplished face — bringing out the blush tones in my appearance but not in a blotchy way.
Interestingly, it took about a anniversary for best of my colleagues to apprehension I was anew pink-haired. Someone alike asked me if I’ve consistently had blush beard (I never saw that one coming!). Our beat Vice President Susan Kaplow summed it up perfectly, saying, “It’s the affectionate of blush beard that your mom would accept of.” (Note: My mom approves.)
Backstage at Fashion Week, I noticed a lot of added women agitation rosy-hued strands. It appears the rose-gold beard is absolutely acceptable a affair — and, in my opinion, the apple is easier on the eyes because of it.
