To craft a multi-dimensional look for Beyonce, Rita likes to use highlights, and in the videos the songstress boasts dark roots.
“The roots give it an edgier look,” explains Rita. “With her olive skin, the darkness at the roots is needed to add depth so that she can go very light while complimenting her skin tone. A solid blonde can wash out anyone with an olive skin tone, so the roots help to give the color depth.”
