This month Principal Stylist Gavin shares his hair trends for Autumn/Winter that he is seeing in the salon and trending on social media. Overall he has seen a big desire for hair with less maintenance and a more natural looking result. Lots of brunettes focusing on having rich natural colours or blondes leaning on the warmer side with less silver tones.
LIVED IN BLONDE
For the autumn the 'lived in blonde’ is taking over! Lived in blonde is a softer and more natural looking alternative for blondes, which is very different to the super bright 90s highlights we saw trending in the summer. This was even spotted on Gigi Hadid this year on the Paris Fashion Week runway.
To create this effect you keep the front hairline super bright and light but the rest of the hair a much softer blonde and blended beautifully up to the roots. This means any regrowth will be smooth and seamless without a harsh line.
This lived in blonde is lower maintenance than conventional blondes but can still have the light and brightness around your face but just not from the whole scalp. This is also a great option if you want to give your blonde hair a little bit of a rest for the autumn to focus on improving hair health as there are many options for still refreshing the mid lengths and ends. You can have toners and glosses in the salon which adds freshness to prevent brassiness and blonde losing shine and to boost vibrancy.
