The New Colour Code
Fashion plays a huge part when it comes to creating hair colour trends and techniques; Westrow’s Technical Director Jenny Pelter talks us through the new looks.
Coloured hair is already emerging as one of the key trends for autumn winter 2013. Having already popped up at Pringle and Meadham Kirchoff, Prada in Milan and Jean Paul Gaultier
in Paris for, hair is set to go colour crazy if the runways are
anything to go by. The trend for darker hair is set to be much more
about bold, clashing colours, merging into one another. Prada showcased a
great collection with models walking the runways with dip-dyed locks of
clashing colours of copper, red and black tones. A very different look
when compared with the spring summer candy coloured dip dyes – things
are a lot more grungy for autumn.
Dip-dye is shaping up to quite literally be one of this decade’s
highlights and it looks like it’s here to stay, evolving every season
with a slight twist to keep things fresh. It’s a technique that allows
clients to colour their hair without the commitment. Jean Paul Gaultier
turned dip-dye on its head this season, with his models showcasing
multi-coloured, painted freestyle roots for a Goth vibe and this is
going be a big trend to look out for in 2013.
Blondes will look less maintained – roots will be key, in line with a
grungier feel, and dark roots will look cool rather than unkempt.
Reddish coppers are also set to be big next season – think Jessica
Rabbit style, long, beautifully-shiny locks with glossy coppery tones.
