After the past year of being in lockdown, many of us are wanting to inject a bit of colour and fun into our looks and what better way than to give your hair a colour transformation!

70's Inspired
The 70’s are making a comeback! Farrah Fawcett inspired hair tutorials have been dominating TikTok and Instagram lately. The voluminous curls and sweeping fringe are key to mastering this iconic hair trend. To achieve the look, make sure you add plenty of product for hold and volume before applying heat. This will help build the volume and hold the structure.

Whether you’re after subtle face framing or you want to opt for a bold, money piece, chunky highlights are a sure-fire winner for the summer season. For those that want a more natural look, adding highlights around the face will create a sun-kissed glow to your hair. As seen on the likes of Rosie Huntington-Whitely and Beyoncé, they're giving us major hair envy!

Feeling bold? If you're after a more striking look this summer season, inject some creative colour into your hair look, by opting for a block coloured, money piece. A favourite amongst influencers, the touch of vibrant colour will add a fun twist to this 90's inspired style.
Modern Pixie

For those that like to go short over the summer months, the modern pixie cut gives an updated twist to the classic, cropped style. Take your pixie cut to the next level by going for a platinum blonde colour. This effortless style will bring an ultra-fashionable feel to elevate any look.
This blunt and choppy cut can be styled using texturising products to finish the look and give that modern edge.
