If your Instagram feed appears lacklustre, consider revitalising your signature style with a touch of colour. As we get comfortable with 2024, it’s an opportune time for reinvention, sparking curiosity, and elevating the ‘wow’ element. Delve into the spectrum from platinum blonde’s understated elegance to neon green’s daring flair – here’s a guide to trending hair colours. Get ready to strut your way to trendsetting glory with these vibrant options.
1. Platinum Blonde
Trendy, eye-catching, and a little bit of genetic rebellion, platinum blonde is back in the spotlight. Whether you’re naturally dark or already a blonde bombshell, this shade takes courage and a fierce blow-dryer. Styling tip? Invest in a good purple shampoo to keep your hue from going brassy in the sun. Also, try ash blonde toner from Budget Hair and Beauty Supplies.
2. Rose Gold
Who said rose gold is only for iPhone cases? This luscious pink-hued blonde is still going strong in 2024. To achieve this look, you’ll want to start with a clean blonde canvas, think buttery or light blonde, and have patience – perfect rose gold isn’t achieved in a day. Once you’re rosy, keep up the maintenance with colour-safe products and avoid excessive heat styling to keep the colour vibrant.
3. Smokey Lilac
More than just a trend, smokey lilac is a lifestyle – or at least a perspective. This cool-toned purple is not for the faint of heart, but it’s a crown fit for any fashion-forward royal. With trendy outfits that compliment the colour, the smokey lilac look can elevate your Instagram aesthetic. Who should try it? Anyone with fair to neutral skin tones.
4. Caramel Balayage
Balayage is a classic for a reason – it’s low maintenance, universally flattering, and just screams “I woke up like this.” The freehand technique means your stylist can customise the caramel tones to suit your natural colour and skin tone. The result is a sun-kissed, dimensional vibe that looks like you’ve been on a beach holiday, even in the dead of winter.
5. Neon Green
For the fashion enthusiasts unafraid to make a statement, neon green is a head-turning choice. This electrifying hue demands attention and a killer wardrobe of ensembles strong enough to stand up to its brightness. Imagine your fav street style star, but with a touch of rebellion – this is the colour for those who dare.
6. Copper Red
Copper red is the warmth you need in 2024. It’s perfect for creating a statement – think Jessica Chastain’s radiant auburn. Whether you’re olive-toned or have porcelain skin, copper can be the perfect complement. This shade radiates for summer and keeps you warm in winter.
7. Midnight Blue
Mysterious, sophisticated, and subtly enchanting, midnight blue offers a subtle transformation for those seeking change within their comfort zone. This deep hue exudes intrigue by day and transforms into a velvety, starlit night under evening illumination. Think “undercover rebel” – the colour of the sky right before it plunges into the night.
