Celebrity Colorist Rita Hazan on Lauren Conrad’s s new brown hair color: “I like it! It looks natural and sophisticated. It still has depth and is multi-dimensional so its soft and not harsh on her skin tone”.

Rita’s tips for blondes thinking about going brunette:

Make sure its something you really want to do. It’s hard on the hair to back to blonde since you have to strip it. Also don’t go too dark at once – do it in stages. You can always go darker. Finally, make sure it’s not too dark for your skin tone.
