Pantone has announced Mocha Mousse as the color of the year for 2025, a sophisticated and versatile shade that has been increasingly present in beauty products and fashion pieces, making up a palette that has stood out in this sense. For those who want to use the color directly in their hair, Elaine Mantoaneli, technical coordinator at Yamá Cosméticos, shares tips on how to use some variations of the color in different styles and combinations.
Why is the Mocha Mousse shade perfect for hair?
"This color balances sophistication and naturalness, with nuances that recall the warmth and depth of earthy tones. It's democratic, fitting in with different skin tones and styles," explains Elaine.
According to the professional, Mocha Mousse works as a base for creating unique looks, with combinations of warm and cool shades. "We can add golden, coppery or even reddish highlights, depending on the proposal."
How to achieve color with the products?
Yamá offers lines that allow consumers to make combinations that result in a close approximation to Mocha Mousse, with high performance and incredible results. Check out some of the suggestions among these shades:

6.31 + 6.4 - ideal for those looking for a result with golden and copper highlights;
6.7 + 6.4 - in general, this is a combination that balances deep browns with a touch of copper;
8.31 + 8.4 - for those who want a lighter look, with soft golden highlights, this is the option that comes closest to this result;

7.7+ 7.4 + 6.66: ideal combination for creating a multidimensional look, with warm reflections;
8.7 + 8.4 + 8.66: perfect for a luminous effect, with nuances that highlight the lightness of Mocha Mousse.
Application and care tips
Mantoaneli stresses that the choice of combination should take into account the natural base of the hair and the final goal. "For lighter or more vibrant tones, you need to prepare the hair with a uniform base. For more subtle highlights, the tones can be applied directly," he says.
In addition, it is essential to invest in post-coloring care to keep the color vibrant. "I recommend products that protect against oxidation and promote deep hydration, such as those in the Yamá Post-Chemical line," she adds.
The Mocha Mousse trend is an opportunity to innovate in style. Whether in darker shades or luminous highlights, the color promises to be the highlight of 2025. As Mantoaneli sums it up: "Hair is an extension of our expression. Play with the nuances and find your ideal version, inspired by Mocha Mousse".
