If you ask me, autumn and winter are the best months for experimenting with new hair colour trends. There’s something about the cooler, crisp air that always gets me in the mood for a fresh start, and I suddenly find myself not only switching up my wardrobe, but changing up my beauty routine too. Not only that, but my hair colour always seems to need the most love and attention as soon as summer comes to an end.
Months of exposing my ends to chlorine, sun and everything in between means that my hair is left looking a little worse for wear, and there’s nothing I love more than treating myself to a new cut and colour for the start of September. However, instead of copying whatever hair colours I see online, this year I’m all about choosing a shade that truly works for me, and it seems that I’m not alone.
“Recently, I’ve noticed hair trends have shifted to more subtle, seasonal themes, and now more than ever, clients are looking to make trends work for them and not the other way around,” says Larry King, Redken UK ambassador and founder of Larry King salons and brand. “When it comes to hair colour, clients are asking for mood-enhancing, dimensional looks that are custom-blended by our colourists to reflect our clients’ personal style and lifestyle… It’s all about finding the balance of what influences you and who you are personally.”
