Summer Hair Color Forecast

Now that we’ve covered the basic steps in how you should keep your hair color fresh and vibrant this summer, we thought we’d talk about some of the hair color trends that are going to be red hot this season! After all, we know there is nothing quite like stepping out of the salon with a fresh new look, and there’s just something about summer that practically begs for pretty hair!

In years past, and we do mean pretty much every year, summer hairstyles involved sun-kissed highlights and a trend toward lightening the hair overall. This year, however, we’re seeing a push towards warmer, traditionally autumnal tones. Earthy tones, like copper, amber, and gold are taking the place of the cooler platinum and ash that we typically see.

When it comes to copper, you may be thinking all-out red, but that just isn’t so. While you absolutely can go for that if you want, the trend this season is all about subtlety. If you’re a brunette, have your stylist introduce a few swirls of the shade through your hair to start. We especially like the idea of creating an on-trend ombre with this shade, where your pretty brown remains untouched up top and your ends pop with a warm copper hue. Yes, please!

Amber-toned highlights perfectly walk the line between not too red and not too blonde and create a rich and glossy mane. Amber also pairs well with copper to create more interest and dimension, especially on brunettes. Our favorite? An amber balayage over a pretty brunette base to create warmth and depth.

Strawberry blonde is literal fire this year, but it’s not going to be just your average peach or rose-gold hue. This year calls for more warmth, as evidenced by the trending cream soda hair, and even adding pops of pink to add more interest and dimension. Think Paris Jackson, and you’re on the right track! The easiest way to try this trend on for size is to ask your stylist for strategic babylights. Chances are, you’ll be hooked!
