Hair Color Trends of 2021

Each year nearly 20 new hair color trends are expected to be all the rage depending on your hair type and current style. In 2021, the colors can be broken down into 3 main categories. Within these, you’ll be able to play around with how to use the color trends, such as with chunky highlights, subtle highlights, highlighted curls, blends, and balayage.

Metallics and blondes
2020 threw a wrench-ball in people’s access to many activities. Many women grew their hair out and let their highlights or color go with it at the start of the year. When they did revisit the salon, we’ve noticed a lot of clients opting to play up their natural color.
Enter metallics. A fun way to cover up grays, but still keep it “natural” is to go silver.
Expect to see a lot of blonde hair color trends as well. Chunky blonde highlights or balayage as well as an all-over platinum blonde.

- Mushroom brunette

Color Reinvented
The hair color trends of 2020 did not get a chance to shine or be shown. Expect to see some of the same trending colors of 2020, but with a twist.
This is a low maintenance, face-framing highlight around the front hairline made via the balayage technique. It’s a very versatile look.
Plus, this trend is a less intimidating option than other hair color trends that feature brighter color choices. The Money Piece simply adds a splash of color around the face allowing for a face-framing highlight. If you are not committed yet to dying your entire hair but want to play with new shades this is the perfect solution.
For those wanting to be a bit more progressive,
try using vivid colors to your highlight.
