The Hair Trends We're Loving in 2026

Trend cycles in hair are slower than fashion — but 2026 has a few directions we're genuinely excited about.

Expensive brunette

Rich, glossy, dimensional brown — with hand-placed lowlights and a warm ribbon of highlight around the face. Low commitment, high impact.

Soft copper

Not orange, not red — a soft, glazed copper that reads as expensive. Best on skin tones with warmth, and worth the toner refresh every 6 weeks.

The lived-in blonde, still

Balayage isn't going anywhere. What's changing is placement — softer around the face, brighter through the mid-lengths.
