Summer 2022 is fast approaching, and it is definitely going to be a season to remember. Already we are seeing the columns filling with colour and styling appointments as clients are enjoying every occasion possible having been restricted for so long. With time passing by extremely quick, it’s important to look at the styling trends which are set to take the industry by storm, heavily influenced by celebrities and fashion houses alike. With pastel colour flashes and bright blondes dominating the colour world, it’s time to look at the styles which will complete the perfect summer look for the clients who have waited so long to celebrate the sunshine once more. Braids & Waves A favourite every year, braids and waves are once again a huge trend and have been sported recently at the likes of Coachella and Revolve, and we expect to see them evolving again through Glastonbury and the Summer Sessions. Braids are very versatile, with a style to suit everyone, whether it be a braided top knot, fishtail braid or a halo braid. This year, we will see a lot more knots and twists replacing braids. These styles are great way to keep the hair off the clients face in the daytime and can be dressed up at night with accessories, keeping the hair under control from humidity! I find that clients often opt for styles which will last a couple of days and braids are definitely one of them. Beachy, relaxed waves are low maintenance and super easy to achieve – making them the perfect summer style. Humidity can cause mayhem with the hair during summer so opting for a loose wave with lots of texture and body allows the client to maintain a fabulous style all day long. Texturising sprays are perfect to create that undone look and my top tip is to spray the under sections of hair to add even more volume – I always explain this to my clients when creating this look in the salon, so they can recreate at home. This also upsells the product that I am using. Up & Out Away Styles Buns, like a low-slung bun and topknots, are particularly great during hot days to take the hair out of the face but still look fantastic. To create a low bun, I always advise firstly prepping the hair with a dry shampoo for added texture and hold. Then, take the hair back to the nape of the neck into a ponytail and after securing the ponytail in place with a hair tie, twist the hair to create a bun shape and secure into place with another hair tie or pins. To add softness and give the hairstyle a romantic finish, pull some pieces of hair out around the face – this will also help to frame the face and make facial features really pop! It’s a great style for summer and can be adapted to suit every individual. Perfect Ponys Ponytails are great as there are styles to suit everyone, these can be very relaxed or sleek and sophisticated – there is one for every individual. Low maintenance and extremely easy to recreate, you can out your own stamp on the style, opting for incredible texture or the addition of hair pieces to really make it unique to your client. The ponytail as we know also protects the hair from heat and sun damage and is a great way to take clients away from heated appliances! I would advise using a humidity spray on this style to prevent any fly away hairs.

I’m still seeing a lot of balayage and expensive brunette, lived-in colours that I think will carry through to 2023. A hair colour cannot be determined by trends only, but I’m seeing a lot of lilac and pink, gold/copper warm colours are predicted too, tying in with the strawberry blonde and rich hazelnut expensive brunette trends. The 70’s blonde is very hot for the new season/year. Layered textures of blonde, multi-dimensional blonde and shadow-rooted is popular, while strawberry blonde is featuring a lot, tying in with the hints of pink that’s trending. As for reds, to be honest I think more copper than red, with a lot of golden coppers, strawberry blondes and rich warm copper shades, very 70’s. Referring to red specifically, deep violet-based reds are predicted to be very popular and trendy. Do you think high fashion colours will be more popular or not so popular this season? I’ve seen a lot of colour in trend predictions, a lot of pink, and rainbow hair is trending again, with pink, blue, green and purple is featuring a lot for 2023. For the right client it will be popular, but I still feel like the majority of clients are looking to spend their money on low maintenance lived-in colour. high fashion colours are very high maintenance. Some clients are on a tighter budget. What are your suggestions for more affordable options for fabulous colour and maintenance ideas? Lived-in colour, with strategic foil placement, too, which stretches out colour appointments, allowing clients come in every 3 to 4 months, so it’s easier for a client to budget and save up for hair appointments. A critical point is good professional aftercare which prolongs any colour at home. Do you have clients who are undecided about letting their grey grow out? What can you tell them? For sure, it can be daunting deciding to “embrace the grey” but having the right balance between natural greys and some colour is all a client needs. I personally think 100% natural grey can make a client look older, so incorporating colour techniques like balayage and strategic foil placement for lived-in colour and super low maintenance can make a worlds difference to natural grey hair. Babylights or airtouch foils with brighter pops of blonde can be stunning but low maintenance. Adding in some ultra-fine and natural lowlights can work too, mimicking the natural grey pattern but enhancing it, so it’s not so dull. Dean Karageorgiades - Co-owner of All Hair Solutions, South African distributors for Keune & Pivot Point Hair color trends to look forward to in 2023 As a hair colorist today, in the post COVID years, we need to read the signs of what the market is looking for where hair color is concerned. They are as follows: • Environment • Sustainability • Richness • More natural tones • Technique Environment In lockdown, we saw how readily the world adapted to the lack of human presence in cities around the planet, giving us hope that nature can heal itself if we let it. This gave us a new appreciation for the rest of the life living with us on planet earth. This in turn helped us embrace more environmentally responsible brands and products, in fact, boosting the demand for such products and in response, a lot of people embraced natural looking hair, especially going grey. People also want services and products that are less harmful to the environment. Sustainability Green washing is a marketing ploy to reel in less informed people, that the products they are purchasing are safe and green. This is not always the case. Sustainability speaks to the entire life of a product from raw ingredients to the disposal of the finished item. Both the environment and sustainability are becoming more and more of a concern to the well-informed consumer and they therefore require us to stock, and work with, hair color products that responsibly vanish into the environment without harm to plant and animal life, ours included! Be sure to choose hair color products that are sustainable if you want to attract more aware clients. Richness Richness of color means the depth of tone, either warm or cool tones. I have found that when a client requests a warmer color, she generally means she wants a richer tone. Don’t be afraid to boost the underlying tones with concentrates to help you achieve the richness of her color. Always remember, don’t color hair for the fashionable result if that result contradicts her skin tone. You are the expert! Guide your clients to what will suit them best. Natural Tones By this, I don’t mean base colors here. Browns are richer. Think wood colors and earthen tones. Reds are deeper into autumnal reds and golds and Blondes are more sun-bleached looking. All these new subtle changes to your colors will be easy to shift your clients color choice into something less dramatic, but no less powerful, when you speak of a change of color. Technique Don’t be afraid of trying new techniques and products. Highlights evolved into Ombre, which evolved into Balayage… there’s always something new out there to excite your clients and save you from repetition. As an artist, it’s a basic requirement that you paint new pictures. Hair is your canvas! Takeaways 2023 is going to be a rich ride into color, honing your color skills now will prepare you for the year ahead. Never forget the importance of skin tones when choosing a great color. Kimberleigh Gailey - Goldwell Blonde Expert & Educator with Kao Salon Division I South Africa What do you predict this summer’s biggest trends in blonde will be? Spring has sprung and clients are emerging from hibernation, giving us an opportunity to do foils and lift their regrowths. I do, however, feel most balayage clients are moving back to having a full blonde look again, while the more budget conscious clients are keeping the balayage “regrowth look”. Creative multidimensional blondes will be the trend for blondes this upcoming summer with a combination of warmer and cooler tones. The warmer we go in toners, the lighter and brighter the result will be and the cooler/ashy toners can make the hair darker and duller, so having a combination of both adds interest to the final result. Blondes should not be afraid of warmth - having a pastel warm toner is absolutely stunning. Shine is also a must have for all blondes, blondes generally lack shine, so adding a glaze or gloss service to your service menu is a great option. Clear in our demi-permanent segment (Colorance) and or adding a few drops of our PurePigments to assist with cancelling out unwanted warmth or adding a few drops of @yellow to give additional shine and a slight warmth to those warmer blondes. We also have Clear from our new Gloss tones assortment, shine in just 10 minutes, all mixed with our Colorance 2% lotion, no lifting or shifting of natural hair. What would be your advice be for stylists who have budget conscious colour clients? As we know consultation is key, this is where we can have a discussion with clients and find out what their budgets are and how frequent they can visit the salon. Blonde is a high maintenance colour and I also personally find that blondes are more educated on hair then we give them credit for. As a budget option, at Goldwell we have a Silklift control Ash and or Pearl that contains a direct dye pigment, meaning we can bleach and tone in one step, leaving the tone more stabilized. Another great option for this budget conscious clients is the balayage, a trend we have had for a while now but it’s the easiest way to be on trend but don’t have to break the bank every 6-8 weeks to cover a regrowth, adding a money piece or face framing for more interest, this can also grow out beautifully into the existing balayage. Full on scalp bleaching would not be an option for these types of client as an example. Getting these types of clients back into the salon, you could offer them a mini balayage, which is just the top veil of the head (crown area) and redo the face frame so they wouldn’t need to do a full balayage every time they visit the salon. Charles Junior Louw - Senior Stylist at Excentric on Kloof, Cape Town & Wella Ambassador What do you see as the biggest colour trend this summer? Hair always needs to complement clothing trends. I would definitely say that the clothing industry Pantones for this coming summer is - fiery red, beetroot purple, tangelo, peach pink, empire yellow, crystal rose, classic green, love bird, blue perrenial and summer song. The reason I'm bringing up the fashion world of clothing is it's telling me exactly where we are heading and staying for summer 2022/2023 in the hair industry. This leads to my top trends for hair colour this coming summer: 1. Chocolate and caramel balayage - perfect look for those sunkissed browns. 2. Strawberry blondes - ready to have hair like Nicole Kidman or Amy Adams? Then this look is just right for you! 3. Golden copper - This is basically equal parts of sexy and playful, but also as expensive as a blonde to maintain, so just bear in mind when deciding on copper tones. 4. Icy blonde and platinum blondes - Icy platinum blonde will always remain a favourite: this colour is and will always be timeless like a well cut classic bob. 5. Orange hair - this is the perfect showstopper for this summer. There are so many shades to choose from that you will never get bored 6. Midnight blue - If you're mysterious and want to bold, this look would be perfect to bring out that inner rebel for this coming summer! 7. Louis Vitton brunette - nothing looks more rich than the richness of the tones and the shine. 8. Bronde - is this blonde or brown? Have you ever heard of this shade? It's been making its rounds the last few summers BUT this summer especially it will be a look not to be missed out on! 9. Golden blonde - Bringing back that 70s sun-kissed hipster colour is exactly where you want to head as a natural blonde this coming summer Golden blonde, icy blonde and golden copper are definitely the blonde trends for this summer. All these looks are complimentary to the clothing industry and it's exactly where I would be heading for the trends of this coming summer. Do you think of the popularity of high fashion colours this season and what would you say the most sought after fashion shades will be? I definitely think fashion shades will still be big. They would just be best complimented with clothes that are less bright. In this way you can definitely be part of the trend. Hair colours I would go for would be: • Fiery red • Beetroot purple • Tangelo • Peach pink (but slowly fading its way out of the trend) • Empire yellow • Crystal rose • Classic green • Love bird green • Blue perennial • Summer song blue For those clients on a tighter budget, what are your suggestions for more affordable options for fabulous colour and maintenance ideas? This is a difficult question to answer, as we all know you get what you pay for. But if I was on a tight budget, I would stick to browns which are the least maintained colour that you can get. Have some extra cash lying around? Spend it on some caramel streaks to make the brown pop. Flo Neacsu - Salon Owner, Excentric on Kloof, Cape Town & Wella Brand Ambassador What are your thoughts on 2022-2023 Summer Expectations? Biggest colour trend I think will be warm reds are a huge trend that is growing fast. And I've noticed also a growth towards the warmer tones, like caramel, rich brunettes, honey blondes, and so on. And what do you think this summer’s biggest trends in blonde will be? Soft and multidimensional warm blondes, using a lot the airtouch technique and foilayage. There are also a lot of clients wanting the very light platinum, almost white hair color. What shades of red do you suggest being most sought after this season? Shades of red: definitely Vibrant and warmer Reds, like copper, orange and intense red. Do you think high fashion colours will be doing this season - what would you say the most sought-after fashion shades will be? High Fashion Colors are always popular for the "trendsetter" type of clients, but the biggest concern with this semi-permanent colors is that they can stain the hair and it becomes very difficult to remove and change. That's why I noticed a drop in those requests and when they ask for them, it's usually in a more pastel form, so it completely washes out from the hair until their next visit, when we can change the colour. For the clients are on a tighter budget, what are your suggestions for more affordable options? When colour is on a budget, the "money piece" can enhance any color and it is a quick but very effective service. A very good option for the clients that have natural grey hair and want a color with lower maintenance is the Illumina grey blending. Do you have clients who are undecided about letting their grey grow out? What would you suggest for them? The best way to grow the natural grey is to do grey blending. This coloring technique blends the dark hair with the natural grey, so it doesn't look like "salt and pepper". Most women are enjoying their grey when it's over 75% grey to the natural ratio and they say they "feel old" when it's below that percentage because of the "salt and pepper" look. My advice is to try and work with the grey, instead of against it. Top International Trends – RUSH Hair & Beauty THIS SUMMER'S HOTTEST HAIR TREND - LUXE BLONDE RUSH SHARE THEIR COMMENTS ON THIS SUMMER'S HOTTEST HAIR TREND - LUXE BLONDE When the sun comes out or we’re making plans for our summer holiday, thoughts very quickly turn to hair colour and one hair colour in particular - Blonde! In fact, there are so many shades and tones of blonde there’s one to suit everyone, giving every skin tone and hair colour the opportunity to lighten up. No one wants to have a brassy blonde or lightened hair that looks dull and tired. “A recent trend with blondes has been the Luxe Blonde, “says Tina Farey, Editorial Director of Rush Hairdressing. “By Luxe we mean expensive looking, well executed colour placement whether it’s highlights or Balayage and well-conditioned, cut and styled hair. All of these elements create the Luxe Blonde.” Balayage has been exceptionally popular with clients. Especially coming out of lockdown, with colour having grown out many clients have embraced this, but that was then, and this is now, and healthy blonde hair is the big hair trend of the summer. Clients can keep their balayaged locks but visit their hairdresser regularly to keep them in check. “A few packets of foils introducing some highlights or lowlights or to create a face framing money piece can lift clients balayage from drab to dazzling,“ adds Rush expert colourist Seung Ki Baek. “The key to having a stunning colour is maintaining the health of the hair. Conditioning products such as masks, leave in conditioners, serums and oils are all important in making hair colour stand out. Nothing looks as good as healthy shiny hair, and I recommend to all my clients the importance of a hair regime that includes regular treatments and trims, as well as colour updates. Highlights have always been popular, and we’ve seen a resurgence of the highlighted blonde throughout the spring into the early summer months. There’s so much choice for highlighted blondes – from subtle natural blondes lightened a few shades to sun bleached blondes and baby blonde tones. Always discuss with your client which blonde will suit their hair and skin tone best. Be realistic with your client on what is achievable and the process. Following their blonde colour appointment clients must ensure their colour is well looked after and that they get their hair cut on a regular basis. “Even if it is only a trim every 6-8 weeks this will help prevent split ends and damage, “says Tina. “Clients should also use a heat protection spray when drying the hair and avoid overusing dryers, irons and tongs. A great way to add movement to longer hair is to style dry the hair and then use Velcro Rollers to create some volume and movement. This is less damaging to the hair and they also looks pretty cool when getting ready or sitting by the pool! A few drops of serum or oil when brushing out smooths out the ends and gives a shimmering shine to the hair” Clients should let their hair make a statement this summer, whether they decide to go full on blonde or dip their toe into the water with a few highlights or a subtle balayage, there’s a blonde for everyone and yes, they do have more fun. Tina’s Top Tips for keeping Blonde looking Luxe. • Clients should visit the salon at least once a month for a treatment. • Clients should invest in good aftercare and professional products that really do work! • Clients should use a silver or purple toned shampoo to get rid of brassiness. Although be sure to advise your clients to be careful whilst using these products, as they can build up and can often be harsher on the hair. Advise clients to only use these once per week and always follow up with a treatment afterwards. • Don’t over work hair that’s fragile and avoid using too much bleach • Advise clients to always use a heat protector - that goes without saying! • Advise clients that if they want to tie their hair back, to use a fabric tie rather than an elastic that can put too much tension on the hair www.rush.co.uk

This collection pays tribute to the painter with wet textures that remind us of the sensuality with which he treated the female figure. The geometric motifs he used to surround them work as exotic headpieces that blend with hair color and evade naturalness. It is about enhancing, making women stand out through brightness, color and fantasy. The repetitive geometric shapes create a hypnotic effect and the monochrome of the look transmits creative energy with angles that add a new value to the plastic expression.
