    Two heavenly new hair trends for summer

    Two new hair trends have descended on Instagram – and I’m so torn I can’t even! 

    Just like these bangin' mani and pedi colour combos, both looks are perfectly #onpoint for summer (not to mention the fast-approaching New Year’s Eve festivities)… but I’ll let you be the judge. 

    The first one is #SunsetHair. Yes, women are dyeing their hair to mimic actual sunsets – and it’s insanely beautiful, as you can see…

    A super moody blue and pink version:

    A more subtle, balayage-tinted take:

    It looks even more impressive in a bun:

    Best brush game ever (video):

     

    NB: If you colour your hair, be sure to use a colour protecting shampoo and conditioner (try Yes To Cucumbers Colour Protection Shampoo and Conditioner) and a treatment such as Paul Mitchell Colour Protect Reconstructive Treatment to keep it in tip top condition.

    If sunset hair is a bit OTT for you, you’ll probably prefer this second look (which is also somewhat simpler to pull off).

    Enter gold leaf hair – aka the perfect festive beauty look…

    A sprinkling at the roots:

    A glorious gold-flecked bob:

     

    It’s a lot like these glitter roots, but with a distinctly Christmassy feel. The best part about the trend? It’s ridiculously easy to replicate! Here’s how:

    Step 1: Use a paintbrush to paint hair mousse (try VO5 Mega Hold Mousse or Schwarzkopf Extra Care Strong Styling Mousse) onto your hair where you want the gold leaf to go. 
    Step 2: Carefully lay gold leafs on top of the mousse. 
    Step 3: Use the paintbrush to gently pat them down.
    Step 4: Let it set for a few minutes to harden and voilà! Gold leaf hair glamazon!

    I for one plan on experimenting with gold leaf all weekend. Who’s with me?!

    DR JOHN SOCO is simply the best spell caster and helper. My name is Precious Kurlan, Out of respect for you and your spells I must make this testimony know to all. I've been to other spell casters without seeing any result.I just wished I came to you earlier, i got the best from you. My ex husband was gone for a year and I went everywhere and other spell casters for help but no result until my friend introduce me to Dr John Soco After the Love Spell was done, I finally got a calls from him in 24 hours like DR JOHN SOCO assured me. His spells worked wonders and my husband is back with full of love. It's a miracle! He suddenly came back with flowers saying that i should forgive him, i was truly flabbergasted and shocked when my husband kneel down begging for forgiveness and for me to accept him back. I'm really short of words and joyful, you are a God sent to me and my entire family. And now i am a joyful woman once again. Thank you so much Dr John Soco To everyone who is looking for a real spell caster should contact DR John Soco On: Drjohnsoco@gmail.com You can also Whatsapp him on +1 (706) 871-4571 .

    Swoon at the purple and pink hair...

    Lucy16 13 Jan 2019 4:38 PM

    The gold leaf at thd roots looks like dandruff!

    Dreamy 23 Apr 2018 3:19 PM

    Bright colors and gold leaf both not for me

    Belindarella 9 May 2017 1:54 PM

    Gold leaf?! On my hair? Mm.. where would I even buy such a thing? Bit OTT for me. I'm in shock people do it! It's all a bit high maintenance for me.

    AndreaJW 8 May 2017 3:55 PM

    I like them all except the gold leaf.

    ray_jay 8 May 2017 2:58 PM

    I really like these but not sure I'd do myself

    rhian38 2 Dec 2016 1:11 PM

    It's a good idea if you're bold enough to be able to pull it off. I'm a bit too conservative for these looks.

    Stensen 25 Oct 2016 11:27 AM

    I'm not sure these styles are for me.

    Honey_Bunches 3 Jul 2016 1:14 PM

    I would look ridiculous with any of these styles

    survivor2012 23 May 2016 9:11 PM

    They look nice but I wouldn't do any of them to my hair. My hair is too thin anyways.

    preciousia 6 May 2016 3:02 AM

    pretty colours... not too keen on any of them.

    itslinda 5 Apr 2016 7:17 PM

    Great article

    annieleex 30 Mar 2016 10:23 AM

    I love seeing all the different crazy hair colours

    talk-a-lot 21 Mar 2016 9:46 PM

    I am loving some of these hair trends, the multi colours look fantastic. Not so keen on the gold leaf, its different.

    Jass 21 Mar 2016 7:28 PM

    I love the sunset hair but so expensive to have done and maintain. A friend recently paid $600 to have her hair done like this. I think hair extensions or a wig would be cheaper.

    Trash__x 2 Mar 2016 9:28 AM

    I used to do Sunset hair a lot, before I knew it was actually a trend. I absolutely love it though, such beautiful colours! The gold looks interesting, I don't think I'd be willing to try it though.

    Interesting displays of colour

    KittyxCat 6 Dec 2015 5:12 PM

    I love the gold but how hard would it be to apply every day?

    I love the sunset hair..the gold leaf is not a good look though

    sporty_ytl 4 Dec 2015 1:57 PM

    I love the colour, just not the gold leaf.

    josella432 3 Dec 2015 6:23 PM

    I love the sunset hair, it's absolutely gorgeous. The gold flecks made me think of dandruff though.

    Hayley_22 2 Dec 2015 8:37 PM

    the gold leaf in the roots looks like really bad dandruff! yuck. i love the brightly coloured dos tho.
