What Hair Colours Are In This Season?

There are lots to choose from! Rest assured, at our Whallasey salon, we will help you to decide and let you know the most wanted hair shades for summer. We love getting creative with hair colour, no matter if you want a bold colour change or your usual colour refresh, we'll customise the perfect colour for you.

So, what is the most popular hair colour right now? It’s all about lived-in, low-maintenance looks with rooted blonde leading the way (move over balayage!). This trend is also called lived-in blonde and gives you that sun-kissed glow with soft, blended roots that grow out beautifully. Think buttery tones, warm highlights, and a natural finish that’s perfect for summer.

Are you a brunette thinking, "Should  I go lighter or darker for summer?" Honestly, it depends on your style and how much maintenance you're prepared to sign up for. Lighter shades can brighten your whole look, but if you prefer depth and shine, a rich mocha brunette is a gorgeous choice. With its warm chocolate and coffee tones, it flatters loads of skin tones and adds a luxe feel without being high maintenance.

We often get asked, "What colour works best for older women?" The answer can vary depending on the individual, but think soft highlights, warm blondes, and rich brunettes with dimension - all are incredibly flattering. The key is choosing tones that enhance your natural features and give your hair that healthy, vibrant look.

If you are feeling bold and want a bright hair colour then opt for a flaming copper or crushed strawberry red shade. These are very popular at the moment. They’re full of personality, surprisingly wearable, and a great way to make your colour feel fresh and fun.

Are Curtain Bangs Still Popular?

Yes! If you are looking for a quick and easy way to liven up your current hairstyle or want to chnage the shape of your fringe, then curtain bangs are a great option. Retro-inspired, face-framing fringes are everywhere in 2025, and we can thank pop princess Sabrina Carpenter for bringing them back in full force.

These soft, 70s-style bangs are super flattering on all face shapes and work with pretty much any hair length. They’re perfect for summer too, giving you the option to wear your hair tied up whiklst still having softness around the face.

Is Short Hair on Trend for Girls Right Now?

Absolutely! Short hair is vwery much "in" this season, and we’re loving the variety of styles to choose from. If you’ve been thinking about going shorter, now’s the perfect time.

One of the biggest comebacks? The Short Bob. It’s timeless, chic, and low-maintenance making it the perfect summer style. Whether you love a sleek, sharp edge or prefer a more textured, tousled vibe, the bob works with pretty much every face shape. It’s one of our go-to styles for clients who want something polished but easy to wear every day.

Feeling a little bolder? Meet the Mixie Cut, a cool mashup of a pixie and a mullet (yep, really). It’s shorter at the back and sides, with a bit more length on top, giving you loads of styling options. You can wear it smooth and sleek or mess it up with a bit of texture for that effortlessly edgy look.
