Sci-fi series Humans is set to be one of summer's biggest TV events, with more than 4 million viewers tuning in to the first episode - but our eyes were firmly on Gemma Chan's perfect shiny hair.
Gemma, who plays domestic robot (or 'synth') Anita in the series, has been a regular client at Charles Worthington for more than three years and it's master stylist, Katie Allan, who is responsible for her glossy hair.
Katie says: "Gemma's colour is a combination of cool mocha shades which are only slightly lighter than her natural base. I use a free hand balayage technique to give a subtle lift through the roots with a few ombré sunkissed ends. I don't over colour Gemma's hair so her natural glossy locks aren’t compromised, but the flashes of colour help enhance Gemma’s skin tone and make her eyes pop. I also give Gemma a nourishing hot towel treatment at every other appointment to keep her hair in top condition."
