AllureConsidering Chan is the colorist for fair-haired beauties like Heather Graham, we expected to kiss our light brown base good-bye. He must have sensed that monthly salon visits wouldn’t work with our packed schedule (and not-so-packed wallet), because he suggested just a few chucky pieces. The honey color is our best blonde since childhood-and we won’t be dashing back to the salon every month for up keep. It’s a good thing, since Chan’s celebrity house calls and television work mean he’s in the salon only 3 days a week. |
