What are the most on-trend hair colors for summer 2021?
According to Glamour, ombre is set to be big this summer. Tracey Cunningham, celebrity colorist, explains that "It's a great way to color brunette hair, because you can tailor it to exactly what each client loves." She also says that when it comes to coloring brunette hair, ombre looks work well, as they allow the brunette color to be slightly colored without going entirely blonde.
Glamour also suggests that this summer "melted pecan" looks are in, acting as a simple way to breathe new life into darker blonde hair or lighter brunette shades. Hair colorist Karissa Schaudt explains that "It's tastefully natural, with minimal highlights, creating a perfect summer glow."
As per Good Housekeeping, chocolate highlights are another color option worth considering. For dark brown or black hair, chocolate brown highlights can give your hair a dimension boost.
Another color set to be huge this summer, according to Glamour is "glowy apricot," or tinting hair with a red-hued tone. Celebrity colorist Jeremy Tardo explains that "This color works great on faded red hair that needs a breath of new life in it."
Good Housekeeping also reports that this summer vibrant red hair is a great go-to look. Guy Tang says that "Summer is all about bright and vibrant colors" and that fiery red tones are the perfect example of this.
