You know what they say, “new year, new hair”, and there’s going to be some serious hair flipping going on with these trending colour, cut and hairstyle ideas. Whether you have lusciously long or stylishly short hair, get ready for some inspiration overload...

  • Fruit Juice Hair
    Fruit Juice Hair

    Another trend that will have brunettes jumping for joy, the latest colour style dubbed 'fruit juice hair' is total hair goals. Coined by hair guru , she explained: "I’m not sure what to call this! It’s a mix of blended fruit colours. I started this hair colour thinking I was doing a simple base and tone. Then my amazing client surprised me! She said, “I want something different!” So yay for stylist choice night!". We think it'll be a big hit this summer.

  • Rose Brown
    Rose Brown

    Finally! A pastel trend that brunettes can get involved with! The rose gold trend isn't done just yet, as rose brown is on Instagram. Instead of having to dye your hair bright blonde to achieve the look, this works with darker hair colours. Created by hairstylist , it's done by using a combination of bleach, Olaplex treatment, and brown and red dyes. We're SO into this!

  • Oversized braids
    Oversized braids

    We're almost at the end of fashion month, and it's fair to say that this season hair was kept simple on the catwalks - we've seen a lot of side partings, tousled waves and low ponys. But at the Simone Rocha show oversized braids took centre stage, tied with a black velvet ribbon, the romantic 'do is perfect for the colder months.

  • Ghosted hair
    Ghosted hair

    This gorgeous look has nothing to do with the dating term, but rather what's hiding in the shadows of the gorgeous hue. Why's it different from platinum or silver? It's the addition of carbon, quartz and oyster white that you don't see at first glance. First crafted by of Josh Wood Atelier, it's definitely going to be a biggie this year.

    If Zendaya can do it, you can do it. Despite what you might think, a bowl cut can been adapted to suit any hair type and face shape. “It can be classy or edgy, it can be androgynous or ultra-feminine – it’s all about choice.” says Melissa Timperly, owner of Melissa Timperely Salon in Manchester.
    After shaving her head last year, Cara Delevingne will be one to watch for this trend.

    We adore red hair, whether it's bright and fiery or a muted strawberry blonde.

    Crimped hair has been biding its time in the style sidelines, but we're ready to welcome it back with open arms. Those with thin hair will find it particularly handy for creating volume and the illusion of thicker hair. Andrew José recommends prepping with £15 Salon Science to hair before styling for extra bounce.

    A little texture here, a little kink here and a freshly washed finish that's hard to fake. Those who are lucky will be able to wash and wear, but for the rest of us: blow-dry straight, but leave your lengths slightly damp. Twist and pin into place while you finish getting ready, and then release just as you walk out the door.

    Rose gold is here to stay

    The hair hue we all fell in love with in 2017 is still making our hearts race. And because we're also 70s obsessed, super hair stylist Larry King predicts pinks and rose gold colours will be appearing more as a muted wash in 2018 – reminiscent of an old polaroid photo.

    Charcoal

    Silver and light grey hair have been huge hits on Instagram in the past, but Katie Williams, Senior Stylist at predicts we'll darkening this shade to more of a charcoal in 2018. "By taking the grey deeper, the hair will look more glossy, nourished and healthy. Moving on from light grey and silver balayage, charcoal grey is a soft transition and at the same time, really striking. This trend is perfect if you’ve spent hours in the salon to achieve lightened hair but want something different for the New Year."
