Summer is finally here and at Bliss Salon of Winnetka, we know that your hair color may have been a little neglected during all this social distancing. Now’s a great time to either give your hair color a little TLC or explore a trendy new hair color to give you a whole new look. Here are a few of the hottest colors trending this summer.

Two-toned. This hair color rocks the bleach blonde on top and dark brown at the bottom. It may seem a bit drastic but trust us, it’s trending right now because it’s a great contrast for that summer, beachy look. Your Bliss stylist will recommend professional deep conditioners and hair masks to ensure your new blonde hair doesn’t dry out.

Caramel sun-kissed brunette. Brunette never goes out of style, and this summer you can give it a little more “oomph” with some sweet caramel highlights around the face. Talk to your stylist about adding some deeper brown lowlights and perhaps some beachy waves to add even more depth and dimension to the color. This highlight color is a perfect way to complement that gorgeous summer tan.

To achieve this warm shade, your hair colorist will blend a few different colors for rich warm shade with a blend of interest and dimension. Colors like caramel, honey blonde, rich chestnut, and deep chocolate brown are all great shades that complement each other. This blend of colors will also grow out flawlessly so you don’t need a lot of touch-ups.

“Twilighting”. This is a new highlighting technique that is taking the industry by storm. Twilighting is perfect for brunettes with warm undertones that still want to achieve some golden dimension. Your stylist will paint a few balayage pieces and add some foiled babylights to attain this look. The results are a beautiful depth of color that will take you from summer to fall with little maintenance.

Silver-blonde. While this color isn’t exactly new, this shade of blonde takes the popularity of silver undertones and gives you the perfect shade, with just the right touch of silver without having to commit to a full silver look. Your stylist will recommend that you use a professionally formulated purple shampoo to keep your color looking great.

Vibrant red. This is a super sexy color for summer. This rich color looks fabulous on anyone with a skin tone with warm undertones. Whether you are a natural redhead wanting to liven up your color or someone who has decided to become a redhead, this is sure to warm up your skin tone and turn heads as you walk through the office or on the beach. Be sure to use a sulfate-free shampoo to keep your red looking bright all summer long.

Dark honey. While most blondes tend to go lighter in the summer, this endearing color gives you just enough warmth while letting you embrace your blonde roots. This color will add the right dimension to your hair, allowing you to show off your blonde spirit while keeping your look professional throughout the summer.
