SPICY REDS

Red hair makes a statement but can be difficult to maintain. For 2024, embrace fiery copper and auburn tones. This spicy mix is vibrant yet totally natural. Ask your colourist to focus on enhancing your own undertones. The result is a red-hot colour that still flatters.

SUNKISSED BLONDE

Nothing provides a natural ‘wow factor’ like sun-kissed blonde locks that look like you’ve just got back from the beach. The key is to keep it multi-tonal, with a mix of buttery and platinum babylights that mimic the way hair lightens naturally in the sun. Warm it up with peachy-beige lowlights around the face for that coveted summer glow.

BRONDE

One of spring's most wearable hair colours is the ‘bronde’ – a super-chic blend of brown and blonde. It's the perfect summer preview shade, with hints of caramel and butterscotch throughout. Ask your colourist for buttery babylights around the front and face-framing highlights.

Glossy Brunette

Deep espresso and chocolate browns will also be popular in 2024, but with an ultra-glossy finish. The trick is to incorporate lots of warm chestnut, amber and caramel tones to create dimension. Adding lighter cappuccino highlights around the face keeps it current. Finish with a glossing treatment for mirror-like shine.

Modern Grey

Going grey gracefully is still on-trend, with hairstylists perfecting the look. Mixing in glossy silvery highlights with hints of grey throughout creates a chic matte finish. Embrace how gracefully you age while still looking au courant.
