If you love making a statement, icy blonde is the ultimate shade. While many lean towards warmer colours at this time of year, a platinum or silver-toned blonde creates a bold contrast to darker autumn wardrobes.

Why it works: Icy blondes are striking but remember to keep root regrowth under control!

Styling tip: Keep your blonde looking vibrant with a purple toning shampoo to neutralise brassiness.

Best for: Those with cool or neutral undertones who want a fashion-forward look.

Our colour experts can help you find the perfect icy blonde shade to complement your skin tone, eye colour and... sense of style!

Balayage continues to reign as one of the most popular hair trends, and this autumn, it’s all about golden tones. Soft honey, caramel, and golden blonde shades are painted seamlessly through the hair, creating a low-maintenance yet luxurious finish.

Why it works: The golden warmth adds radiance to your complexion.

Styling tip: Balayage grows out beautifully, making it a perfect choice if you want fewer salon visits during the busy autumn months.

Best for: Anyone looking for a versatile, natural look that’s easy to maintain.

Golden balayage suits almost every hair type and length, and our team can customise your placement to enhance your haircut and face shape.
