NEW 2023 – 2024

“Who did your hair?!”

2023 – 2024 The low-maintenance shade is trending.

“Expensive Brunette” Is One Hair Color That Won’t Make You Go Broke

If you’re looking to change up your hair color, there are a few factors to consider — skin tone, lifestyle, and the current state of your hair, to name a few — when deciding which shade is right for you. While some colors are notorious for being a full-time commitment ( platinum blonde) that only interests those who are up for the challenge, others are lauded for their low-maintenance universal appeal. Case in point: “expensive brunette.” 

From mink tones to diffused color blocking, this year is redefining hair color trends. The overall theme? Natural-looking hair color with a subtle edge (the chic sex appeal clients love)! 

Who It’s For

Former blondes who have been growing out their natural color or anyone looking for a low-maintenance hair color, in general, may find “expensive brunette” appealing. “This trend can be a multi-tonal brunette that is rich in depth and glossy, but this does not mean you can’t be one-dimensional,” “If you are a person that loves one color this is definitely a trend for you as well.” 

“Curlights”

This will be the year that curly kings and queens have hair color that thrives. “Highlighted curls come with the fear of damaging the delicate strands and losing the curl pattern, but both can be achieved,”

“It’s easy to get lost in all that movement and volume, so when Marie is hand-painting highlights, she will keep the placement simple: Marie chooses the curls you want to pop and just paints them, as you want to see them.”

“Balayage Highlights & Reds”

As far as hair color trends go, Balayage has been the supreme choice for years. But as we head into a new year (bye-bye 2022), experts are predicting the year that was will still inspire our choices.

Think: Color that grows out gracefully, chunky highlights for some wow-factor, and rich copper just to feel something.

Despite the temptation of pastel purple hair, rich chocolate browns, warm honey blondes, and spicy but subtle reds are also in high demand.

If you’re a fan of red or spicy but subtle reds, you’re in luck, as it will be hot this year. “Red is the best color because it can be customized to enhance your natural beauty.

“3-D Balalyage Color”

This Sweeping Technique Makes Hair Look Thicker & Longer

3D Balayage is a new take on a familiar color technique where highlights and low lights are painted onto strands. 3D-Balayage involves lightly sweeping sections of hair with color to create light and shade. The result is a brilliant, multi-dimensional mane that has natural-looking texture and movement. Rather than dyeing the hair with one single lighter color, there are two shades, and one is always slightly darker.

“Warm Honey Blonde”

2006 called—warm blondes are back. Say goodbye to the ashed-out balayage that held your looks captive the past several years and give a WARM welcome to this year’s honey blonde.

 

Marie’s Tip: Her loyal blonde clients will only “see yellow” (just at first!) when they transition to honey. Adding a deep, natural-looking root can lessen the shock of a new warm shade by keeping dimension around areas that clients see the most!
