5 Hair-Color Trends You Need to Try in 2019 - 2020

When it comes to beauty trends, nothing is ever really out. That being said, there are looks that naturally come and go — especially when it comes to hair color. Thanks to social media, it’s easy to see that all of a sudden, your friends, favorite influencers, celebrities, and even regular folks are getting dye jobs in similar, gorgeous shades. That's how trends are born, after all. Which got us thinking: How can we get ahead of what's next in hair color? By heading directly to the experts, of course. We talked to top colorists who have firsthand knowledge of what hair colors are going to blow up in 2019. They aren't psychic (at least we don't think so), but they're listening to their clients' needs all day at the salon — and some of those clients happen to be major trendsetters.

Lucky for us, these hues are decidedly wearable. Some are easier than others to achieve (we're looking at you, pastel), but each can look incredible on just about everyone. Your new hair-color vibe for 2019 is right ahead. You'll probably want to bookmark this.

Dirty Brunette

You've heard of dirty blondes, but have you heard of dirty brunettes? "I think we’re going to see a lot of the trend in 2019," says hairstylist Riawna Capri of Los Angeles's Nine Zero One Salon, seen here. She explains that the hue is a natural-looking brunette color that incorporates dark blonde pieces with a more neutral, smoky vibe. It's not warm or cool — it's somewhere in the middle.

Dirty Brunette

Capri says that a dirty brunette's highlights don't "compromise a brunette’s brown hair," meaning that they shouldn't lean too far into blonde territory. For example, Ciara's hair is still a rich, pretty brown, but it's illuminated with neutral highlights.

Dirty Brunette

"Dirty brunette is a nice change for those who are normally cool or super warm," adds Capri. "It’s a perfect balance of both." Actress Jessica Biel keeps her neutral highlights looking natural with laid-back waves. Notice the how the kiss of lighter brown brightens up her complexion.

Faded Pastel

Hairstylist Andrew Fitzsimons got Khloe Kardashian to this pale-pink hue by using a temporary hair color. "I’ve been playing with spray-on colors lately and have been so impressed with how much these types of products have improved in recent years," he tells Allure. "Khloe and I were chatting about it and she’s always down to push boundaries, so I used the L’Oréal Paris Colorista 1-Day Spray in Pastel Pink so she could see how it would look. She loved it so much, we did it again [last] week for Good American."

Cool Brunette

Model Kaia Gerber's highlights look like she was born with them. To achieve her look, have your colorist focus baby-fine highlights on the midlength and ends of your hair, as well as the pieces framing your face.

THE 5 HAIRSTYLES YOU'LL SEE EVERYWHERE IN SUMMER 2020

If you've been flirting with the idea of changing your hairstyle, now is the perfect time to switch it up.

After all, a new season is fast approaching, fresh looks are emerging and inspiration is abundant.

In order to provide you with some guidance amid the onslaught of options, we consulted some of Australia's leading hairdressers to get their expert takes on the trending cuts, colours and styles for summer 2020. So, if you fancy a new 'do, keep scrolling for (and prepare to screenshot) the 'it'-looks of the coming season.

Byron Turnbull, Co-Founder and Director of Goldie Sydney:

"If you can't make up your mind over whether to go light or dark for summer, 'bronde' is for you. A warm and glossy look, the main benefits of this hair colour are that it's achievable and low-maintenance, keeping hair super healthy while offering light and shade for pops of colour and brightness."

Anthony Nader, Salon Owner and Creative Director at RAW Anthony Nader:

"An asymmetrical bob with a solid baseline showcases healthy thick ends and you can wear this either poker straight or with a wave. Try changing your part line to deep side part for added drama or [go for] that ever-contemporary, strict centre part."

Joey Scandizzo, Co-Creative Director of ELEVEN Australia:

"This is a really '70s approach to texture. [It's about] creating the same movements through the mid-lengths and ends but instead of a drier finish, using softer, more pliable products with a gloss finish. Poppy Delevingne and Margot Robbie do this so well, with irregular twists or plaits that add interest and a mix of textures. This looks great with soft blondes and muti-tonal shades in neutral, high-shine glossy colours."

Barney Martin, Owner & Director of Barney Martin Hair:

"[We'll see] a new love affair with gel. This is brilliant for fixing low, sleek ponies for a minimalist look. Cue: wet look, slicked back finishes with a 'more is more' approach to gel. The high-shine and no-stray pieces really pare back with the luxe finishing."
