There’s excitement in the air this year. Movement and energy begging for a change, to do things differently in 2026. And if you’re in the mood for a change, we’re highlighting some of our favourite ways to upgrade your style this year—from colour to finishes, consider this your style inspiration, sorted.
Complex Colour + Care
Vanilla Honey Blonde
Low-maintenance or high-fashion? While most think you’ve got to choose between the two, with the latest innovations in colour, both are doable this season. And as you walk into a new season feeling refreshed, make sure your colour matches. One such movement this season that is sure to capture the hearts of many is the Vanilla Honey blonde tone. Moving back into more complex colour creations, this tone mixes the warmth of honey with gold and the clean, crisp natural of a vanilla blonde. The result is a complex shade that works with a variety of skin tones for the ability to fall between warm and cool and suit both.
Utilising KEVIN.MUPRHY CODE—the smartest new way to colour, this high-perfoming range is powered by skincare technology for up to 100% grey coverage, longer lasting results and more shine and repair than ever before. Plus, with the ability to lift 4-5 levels, stylists can get more creative behind the chair with high-lift options.
While CODE helps enhance more consistent results for longer, be sure to pair your new shade with EVERLASTING.COLOURto elongate your colour between visits. Featuring a WASH, RINSE, LEAVE-IN & TREATMENT, this is the ultimate regimen to lock in vibrant tones and enhance shine wash after wash.
Hair Health > Everything Else
There’s been a shift in priorities when it comes to hair. Instead of achieving a certain look at all costs, the biggest investment is actually improving the natural state of your hair to ensure the style you choose is healthy and looks lush above everything else.
From self-care to quick swaps, products that perform and work efficiently are everything this season. Which is why you’ll love the day and night duo that is NIGHT.SHIFT + YOUNG.AGAIN.
With the ability to look after your hair around the clock, NIGHT.SHIFT is completely changing the game—and giving you more time. An overnight serum that works while you sleep—you’ll wake up to shinier, stronger, more hydrated hair by morning. Making this a very much welcomed nighttime ritual for all hair types. Partner this with YOUNG.AGAIN during the day or anytime you style, this treatment oil is perfect for the daytime pause you might need and ideal to add before styling for heat protection up to 450°F / 230°C.
Styling Your Hair Again
There will always be time for undone, effortless looks. But, this season have fun with styling your hair again. From learning how to braid to finally teaching yourself how to nail the perfect snatched bun or low chignon—2026 is all about finding little moments to express yourself and what better way than to try a new style.
In case you needed a reason to style your hair again, we can think of a few created at the SS26 Dara Findikoglu show with Eugene Souleiman (our first-ever Global Professional Ambassador).
At the show, Eugene Souleiman led a team that created a hairstyle that balanced strict Victorian discipline with feral, witchy abandon, finished with a flourish of Turkish ornamentation. With braids and twists and structural finishes, the looks will inspire you to add SESSION.SPRAY, POWDER.PUFF and HAIR.RESORT.SPRAY to your cart ASAP.
