With so much attention paid to hair styles and hair cuts, hair colour is often looked at last. But that's not to say that hair colour trends don't exist. On the contrary, there'll be three 'on trend' hair colours in 2010.
Alongside 2010's three main hair trend colours also come particular cuts and styles aimed at specific colours; the short black hair cut for 2010 is the perfect example.
But as for this year's hair colour trends, they are:
Peroxide Blonde
Bordering on white blonde hair, peroxide blonde is the colour of choice for a striking look in 2010. Best of all, there are a number of ways to style it.
- If you're after an edgy look, choose a peroxide blonde colour that, while working with your skin complexion, is obviously died.
- Peroxide blonde as an edgy, eye grabbing statement can be styled particularly well with the slicked and man / boy style hair styles for 2010. It also works best with short hair cuts, particular those with a longer fringe and shorter back as popularised by Kate Lanphear.
- If you're after something more natural, pick a light shade of blonde that plays perfectly to your skin tones. And then dye your eyebrows to the same shade.
- Light blonde hair in 2010 will work best with longer hair. 2010 hair styles that will suit include plaited and braided, 1940s inspired hair, and 1970s inspired hair.
- Both interpretation of peroxide blonde hair colour are particular strong as a Spring / Summer 2010 hair colours.
Golden Blonde
Peroxide blonde isn't for everyone, but that shouldn't rule out blonde as a hair colour altogether. Enter mid-tone blonde for 2010.
Natural in its tones, golden blonde is the best way to describe it. Unlike peroxide blonde, it doesn't have the extreme white colouring nor should it be dyed to be obvious.
What it isn't
The golden blonde hair colour or 2010 is not dirty blonde; in 2010 look for one predominant colour, though your roots could be mildly darker provided they are well blended and don't give off the a "I'm too cheap to get my hair dyed" vibe. It's also not strawberry blonde.
Popular. Particular amongst models. Look to the likes of models Natasha Poly and Iekeliene Stange for inspiration.
Other things to note for this shade of hair colour:
- It's a great all rounder, and will work for both the Autumn (Fall) / Winter 2010 and Spring / Summer 2010 seasons.
- If you're looking to add something really striking to the look, consider bleaching your eyebrows a lighter shade of blonde than golden.
