We're not ones to brag, but you know that "new"sunset hair look making its way around social media right now? We coined the term last year. Like a lot of trends, it's making a comeback — and, from what we can see, it's better than ever. There are some differences between now and then: We originally created the look with hair chalk, while this updated one involves actual dye. Our beauty editor Maria Del Russo's color was mostly situated on the ends; sunset hair 2.0 is more of an all-over-the-head situation. The similarities: Both versions are unique and beautiful.
