If you’ve grown tired of the same old base color or the same style of highlights, summer is the perfect time to experiment. Despite this, many are reluctant to embrace bold or pastel colors but still want a subtle change. Discover the trendiest, subtle hair coloring in Davie, FL for inspiration:
Balayage
While most people believe that balayage refers to specific hair color, it is a hair coloring technique. Instead of using caps or traditional means of applying highlights, the stylist paints the dye on the hair in a strategic, freehanded manner. The goal is to apply highlights that look natural and appear in areas where the hair would naturally lighten in the sun. For comparison, think of the highlights that are naturally found in children’s hair (particularly in the summer months). The hair is usually lighter towards the ends and highlights appear in the areas that experience the most sun exposure. This means that the color combination will vary depending on the base color you are starting with and which color you wish to add.
Skunk Stripe Hair
In the late 90s and early 2000s, highlights were one of the biggest trends. Unlike the subtle, thin highlights that are popular today, these were thick and mimicked “skunk stripes”. Today, the trend is being revamped on a smaller scale. Instead of thick highlights all over the head, many are choosing to add one or two large stripes of color. The color can be any shade that is drastically different from your base color. This style is similar to the “money piece” trend where bright, thick highlights frame the face but can be incorporated into the front, sides or back.
Ginger Meets Brunette
For those that are torn between bright red locks and warm brunette, the ginger meets brunette trend is for you! This color is the perfect mix of red and brown (Think: gingerbread cookies). The shade lasts much longer than standard reds and adds immense warmth to your complexion. The subtle shade is unique and customizable so you aren’t likely to run into others sporting the same look, despite the trend’s rising popularity.
Peach Blonde
You’ve heard of strawberry blonde, but the peach blonde is a newer hue that is gaining a lot of attention. While strawberry blonde features a red tinge, peach blonde skews more orange. The result is a gorgeous, long lasting, and unique color that isn’t overly blonde or overly orange. If you are interested in going peach blonde, it’s a good idea to bring along a photograph of your desired shade. This will help your hairstylist in Davie to understand how much orange you wish to incorporate.
