How-To: Camila Mendes’ Rich Reflective Brunette

Specifically designed for Camila Mendes‘ Masters of the Universe movie press tour, Celebrity colorist and Paul Mitchell Professional Global Color Artist Matt Rez created a look called Rich Reflective Brunette. The goal was to keep her signature rich brunette while subtly weaving in warm, character-inspired red reflects for a soft, dimensional evolution of her look throughout the press cycle. The result is a polished, reflective brunette that feels elevated yet wearable, with multi-tonal warmth that shifts beautifully in different lighting. Below is Matt’s breakdown of how the look was achieved: This look was designed to maintain depth and richness while introducing subtle warmth and red reflects inspired by her character. The result is a glossy, dimensional brunette that feels natural but elevated for camera, press, and red carpet moments.
