Hair Color Trends for 2018

The new year is in full swing, and it’s a great time for a new hair color! The best thing about this year’s hot trends is that there are so many options for everyone. Here are just a few of the choices:

For brunettes, colors will get an infusion of dark richness, with chocolate brown emerging as one of the favorite base and all-over colors. If you’re looking for highlights to add dimension, there are tons of options for brunettes. A touch of gold against a very dark brown creates the driftwood look. Root beer hair is achieved with some red or auburn highlights. There’s no one way to do highlights – they can be subtle or stark in both color intensity and quantity, which varies from a light dusting of highlight color to almost a 50/50 mix.

For the new year, blondes can choose from a wide range of shades, from bright platinum or snow white to a more natural looking baby blonde or honey balayage. Popular blonde colors for 2018 include rose gold and buttery blonde, with its soft, warm hue. Highlights are the key, and as with brunettes, these can be subtle or bold. For the sun-kissed beach look, try cream soda, a perfect blend of natural-looking golden and platinum blonde shades.

Red hair is always in style, but the best shades for 2018 are bright and bold, with deep auburns and fiery reds at the top of the list. If you’ve been thinking about going red but want to do it gradually, try starting off with strawberry blonde or cayenne spice red, which retains some blond while giving you a reddish tint.

Of course, unexpected colors are still popular this year, with a special emphasis on highlights in bold jewel tones or soft pastels. Fantasy colors are fun, and you can create full-hair looks, color patterns, or just a hint of color on the ends.
