Trend Tuesday: BRUNETTE


Want to update your seasonal brunette but unsure on what will suit you? Here are 4 of the HOB micro trends your colourist will be recommending this season. 

1. Grunge Couture takes inspiration from early 2000's girl power movement. Its edgy, cool and polished grunge. Your colourist will add softer and lighter pieces of colour to help soften your overall look, creating more movement within the hair. This technique works best on midi to longer length styles to really show off the hair cut and colour in the best possible way.



2. Soft shading is this season’s must-have technique for those who are stepping away from the 'blonde' and embracing their natural roots/darker side. The technique creates depth around the face to enhance and draw attention to your eye colour. Your colourist will work with softer, warmer blends through the length and ends to create a softer more balanced  appearance. Soft shading works really well on all hair types and lengths.



3. Ombre is back, and with so much nostalgia for all things Y2K, we had to include this as one of thid season’s micro trends. However this time around it has a new approach. Your colourist will work with your hair length and texture to create pieces of stronger bolder tones through the mid lengths of your hair creating strong contrast between the lightness and base colour of your hair. This new take  on ombre is calling out to all you fashionistas!



4. Go Global - This is a salon essential classic. Brunette hair automatically looks healthier, and can give the appearance of glass like or mirror like shine due to the way the eyes absorb darker tones. Darker colour also gives the illusion of thickness for finer hair types and can give your cut definition and strength. We say go cold in tone and rich in depth for that dramatic new year, new you, YOU!
