The Top 5 Hair Colour Trends of the Season

Whether you’re seeking expert advice to pick a new hair colour or looking to celebs and influencers to see what shades they’re swooning over, below we’re detailing a few of the top hair colour trends of the season and offering tips for how to keep your colour looking its best. 

Fall Hair Colour Trends

Matching Your Brows to Your Base

Some of us can pull off dark bold brows with a platinum base, but this season matching your brow colour to your base shade is making the rounds again. While this is arguably more maintenance for some, the look gives a more finished feel from head to toe. This doesn’t necessarily mean they should be the same shade, but rather something similar to give off a natural appearance. 

Global Glossing

Glossing or “toning” as it is often referred to in the industry is the process of applying a semi or demi-permanent dye to your strands. The reason for asking for a global gloss this season is twofold. First, glossing often has conditioning properties that help add shine, help the cuticle lay more flat and give an overall lit-from-within glow to your hair. Second, “global” refers to an all-over wash of colour from scalp to tip. Similar to asking for matching brows and base, a global (read: all over) shade will become increasingly popular as we head into the fall and winter months. 

Hairline Highlights

Highlights around the hairline in various widths and sections allow for an instant brightening effect and are a quick and easy way to blend highlights or add interest to your latest transformation. These highlights do not need to be bright or contrasting and they can even be applied in the form of a formula that is 1 or 2 shades lighter around the face frame. What this does is help blend your natural colour and create a softer appearance to any shade. 

Blush Tones

Kendal, Kaia, and Gigi have already shown us that the season’s shade will undoubtedly be copper. However, this shade might not work for all hair or skin types. Instead of concentrating on a specific shade, consider a blush tone — which can have red, copper, pink, or an orange undertone. The intensity and placement of the shade are completely up to you and your stylist and can be a welcome way to instantly add warmth — easily the top colour trend of the season.  

Old Hollywood Blonde

Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling have created quite the buzz around the internet with their shades for the upcoming Barbie film release. While many of us can’t keep up with this level of blonde, you’ll see more high-intensity, golden, creamy blondes resurfacing this season and are the perfect inspiration if you’re looking for a shade in the blonde family. 

At-Home Care

As with any hair colour, the main factor always comes down to the upkeep. Making things a little easier, the new EVERLASTING.COLOUR line offers a range of products that will elongate your shade and help cut down on any damage caused during or after processing.
