From Billie Eilish’s buttery blonde to Gigi Hadid’s ginger, 2021 saw an explosion of warm, off-kilter hues as the world began to open up again. But what does next year hold in terms of hair colour? Will we see a return to slime green or peroxide blonde? Or will 2022 be a darker affair? Here, the experts make their hair colour trend predictions.
Matt Rez
Warm it up
“Warmth is coming back in 2022. Whether you are a blonde, brunette, or redhead, incorporate warm tones into your silhouette. Ask your colourist to add a ‘midlight’ into their highlighting technique. It gives the warmer and deeper colour that connects your base and lightest highlight seamlessly, creating a controlled, multi-dimensional and warmer result.”
Daniel Moon
Be bold
“Sandy blondes like Sharon Tate will be big, as will electric coral because it looks great on everybody’s skin. It’s like capturing the magic hour in a hair colour. Then there’s Simi and Haze, the dynamic duo twins of Los Angeles who do it best. Natural but light. Dark blonde brings out the features like a brunette but is light enough to not change the vibe completely.”
