The Top Hair Color Trends for 2023

While we can't wait to try on new accessories and spring prints, the season's top trends wouldn't be complete without new hair colors to match. 

Trending 2023 Color Trends

Expensive Brunette

As we head into the colder months, this shade is proving it isn't going out of style yet. This trend started when spotted on Hailey Bieber and continues to gain popularity because it prioritizes the hair's health. Instead of opting for endless bleaching sessions, brunettes embrace their natural tone and ask for highlights that enhance their shade. Hair is lifted only a few shades with minimal placement for maximum effect. 

Balanced Blonde

Instead of high contrast and multi-tonal finishes, more and more clients are looking for more balanced and blended blonde shades this season. Change your color by adding a global gloss and utilizing peek-a-boo placement or blended root smudges.  

Copper Tones

As soon as the temps drop, hair color seems to heat up; this fall, copper and red undertones are in. The copper hair color trend first seen on stars like Zendaya, Kendal Jenner, and Kaia Gerber has started a movement that isn't slowing down. To get the look, pre-lighten hair with bleach and then tone it or apply a global gloss to create a warm cast. 

Boho Blonde 

For all the clients that love their balayage, boho blonde is the natural upgrade for their style with equal parts brown and blonde. Similar to an ombre utilizing a brown base with lightened ends, this look has less contrast and more blending. The look is quintessentially boho beachy blonde. 

Blushing Pastels

No matter the season, or the weather, there is always room for a splash of fashion colors. This season, "natural" are enhanced with a vibrant finish. Instead of bubblegum pink or ravishing red, blush or pastel versions like strawberry blonde, light copper, and pastel pink will be trending. For an even more individualized look, consider dyeing your brows to enhance this shade.

When deciding on new hair color, stay true to yourself and pick a shade that complements your skin tone. No matter the level or placement, this is one rule that can help you rock any color under the rainbow.
