Twilighting
Stephenie Meyer may not be the maker behind this trend, but it doesn’t make it any less magical. Karissa Schaudt, colourist at Chicago’s Maxine Salon, named the technique, which mixes balayage with baby-lights (super-fine highlights). The result? “Brunette with warm undertones, meaning the colour is reflecting golden hues.”
Toblerone
Brunette? This wearable chocolate with chestnut highlights is delecatable to the eye and low maintenance year-round.

Sunset sorbet
If you’re already a big fan of the pastel and rose gold hair trends, say hello to your next project.

Silver fox
Grey hair isn’t going anywhere. You’ve just got to make sure it’s shiny AF.

Sandy blonde
If you’re not a fan of foils every six weeks, this sandy, seamlessly blended blonde will allow you to go longer between colours and looks natural too.

Ruddy brown
While rust and ruddy tones are a blonde’s worst nightmare, adding slightly warmer strands throughout a brunette colour looks God damn delightful.

Perfect pink
A more wearable take on cotton candy hair, blondes can play around with this perfect shade of pink using semi-permanent toners. Give it six weeks and you’ll be back to your base colour, ready to experiment again.

Pearl blonde
This metallic blonde may be shinier than a pearl, but it won’t bode well in the sea. Keep Wella Professionals Invigo Blonde Recharge Cool Blonde Color Refreshing Shampoo in your shower to keep it cool-toned well after your appointment.

Pantone blue
Blue balayage anyone? If Pantone’s Colour Of The Year is anything to go by, we’ll all be playing around with Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Spray in ‘Blue Twist’. Unless you’d rather take the permanent plunge?

Mulled wine
Plum-covered highlights on a brunette base? We’ll toast to that.

Chestnut highlights
Can’t decide between blonde or brunette? This will satisfy both cravings.

Iced white
What could be cooler than hair as white as snow? Platinum is still officially ‘in’, bleach lovers.

Dark cinnamon
If you’re a brunette who’s always wondered what it would be like to go red, this dark cinammon shade will give you a taste.

Caramel drizzle
A chocolate base with honey-blonde highlights? It’s like a Crunchie, only better.

Brondre
It’s bronde. It’s ombre. It’s what we want.

It seems like these 2020 hair color trends were made especially for me. Gonna try all of them this year! I was also happy to find a few haircare tips on Vine Vera reviews coz some of these techniques can damage hair a lot.. Or no?
Loving the chestnut look. The twilight colour sounds great and requires minimal upkeep.
im blondie at the moment but my hair is having a heart attack currently, and think i need to go back to my brunette babes
I just got my hair done like this 2 weeks ago
Love the dark cinnamon, caramel drizzle and toblerone look!! Some gorgeous looks here =)
Just got Toblerone on my hair last week, love it. Pearl Blonde and Perfect Pink are gorgeous, but doesn't suit my complexion.
I'm still seeing a lot of ombré out & about. I might redo mine.
I don’t colour my hair, but I could be tempted by twilights…
I dont colour my hair either, but do like hightlights. They seem to put some glow in my hair. Usually have two or more colours.
The plum highlights are stunning!
Do need a hair makeover
Some nice looks. Love the silver
I wish I could pull off this hairstyle.
Toblerone looks nice.
