LUXE BLONDE
When the sun comes out, or you’re contemplating your summer holiday, thoughts very quickly turn to hair color and one hair color in particular - blonde! In fact, there are so many shades and tones of blonde that there’s one to suit everyone, giving every skin tone and hair color the opportunity to lighten up. No one wants to have a brassy blonde or lightened hair that looks dull and tired.
“A recent trend with blondes has been the Luxe Blonde,“ says Editorial Director Tina Farey of Rush Hairdressing.
Fall Color Scene
With the change in the season, so too is a shift in hair color. In a recent conversation ColorProof Education Director Erica Conan broke down what's on-trend for fall. Here's what this color expert had to say:
Fun-Loving Hues
For years we‘ve all heard the adage, blondes have more fun. Visions of light-haired beauties dance in our heads, frolicking in the sun, flirting with everyone in sight, and catching the eye of others, seemingly without effort.
Lighten Up
It's summertime, summertime, summertime, and things are heating up!
The Color Scene
We recently caught up with Lisa Whiteman, an award-winning hairdresser, and expert colorist, to discuss upcoming color trends for fall and into winter. Here's what she had to say...
Q: What sort of trends will we be seeing with hair color/colour this fall and into the winter season?
Trending Hues
According to Neil Barton, Goldwell ambassador and owner of Neil Barton Hairdressing in Edinburgh, Scotland, blonde shades never go out of style. They are not just for summer but all year round. This past winter, this seasoned colorist saw a lot of warm-toned blondes, with lighter blonde toning their hair down and opting for golden and honey hues instead. Silver and platinum blondes are another popular hue for winter, giving an icy, snow-inspired look.
Copper Appeal
This intensely deep and warm red hair color and wild haircut are reminiscent of British culture, where the New Romantic period in music inspired a cult-like society. Hair artists Mark Eubanks & Shannon Rha of Mark Christopher Salon created this richly-hued look to set the cool-weather season on fire.
Oil Slick Color Trend
Rainbow hair isn’t just for blondes! With the oil slick hair trend, even dark-haired beauties can rock the look without having to do extreme lightening from roots to ends.
