Blondes who prefer warmer platinum hues will find that it adds a relaxed, yet muted take on their classic silver shade and is suitable for most skin tones.
Brunettes and Bold Hues
Brunettes can experiment with bold hues this season as well. Try opting for sherbet-inspired shades that complement their bronzed tans; this look works for women of all ages and skin tones alike. To preserve their caramel tone, use a color-protecting shampoo/conditioner system.
Money Piece Highlights
Money piece highlights are a must for summer hair color in 2020. Instead of doing full balayage, this trend involves selectively highlighting only those strands that frame your face with strawberry blonde highlights. Bonondona suggests minimal babylighting, so the look grows out naturally over time. Celebrities like Beyonce and Rihanna have made this trend popular among those who prefer bold contrast looks. Achieve Shego vibes using curtain bangs with this look, but be careful not to go too light as that would contrast too sharply against your darker locks.
Asymmetric Bob
Asymmetrical bobs make an eye-catching summer hairstyle that is highly customizable. Depending on your face shape and personal taste, the differing lengths between sides can range from subtle to dramatic. Straight asymmetrical bobs have long been considered fashionable, and curly locks have also taken on this trend with great success. A layered side-swept asymmetrical bob with big, bouncy curls is alluring and seductive. Incorporate the ombre color trend with an asymmetrical bob for a striking look. The combination of wheaty-blonde, amber-blonde, and dark brown creates an eye-catching style that perfectly complements heart-shaped faces.
Side-parted Curls
Though choppy bangs may be the summer 2020 hair trend, deeper side parts are also an easy way to add dimension. Use some edge control and hairspray to grow out your fringe or realign baby bangs for this chic look. Curly shags are an easy, feminine way to show off your natural curls this summer. Yara Shahidi pairs her voluptuous coils with a deep side part for an irresistibly seductive style. This sultry look pairs perfectly with a simple T-shirt and figure-hugging jeans!
Golden Highlights
Add the perfect splash of summer to any blonde hue without going over-bleached with gold highlights. Blend subtle strands of warm buttery gold into your blonde mane for face-framing highlights that accentuate your skin tone and face-frame your features. Brunettes can add golden highlights and lowlights to their chocolate brown locks for a natural-looking style, creating a soft caramel-golden color that looks beautiful with a tan. If you’re ready to ditch the pink hair trend, try peachy or pastel lilac strands for a more delicate pastel hue. They make for beautiful half-up, half-down styles while remaining subtle enough for everyday wear. Plus, this hue creates an excellent summer-to-fall transition hue and complements bronzed skin beautifully.
Tiny Bob
Saoirse Ronan usually sports her locks in natural curls but recently debuted a short, blunt bob. Fans immediately called this style “absolutely stunning” and “beautiful”. Leighton Meester switched up her look, opting for a sun-kissed blonde bob with layers and highlights for texture and volume. Jonathan Van Ness joined the ranks of those sporting the short style by sharing an Instagram post of his sleek nape bob, garnering compliments and heart-emojis. This shortcut is an excellent solution for the summer heat and looks easy to style.
Loose Waves
Beachy waves have been the trend this summer, from matching them with bangs to pulling back into a high ponytail. Lucy Boynton added an adorable bow to adorn her loose waves, while Laura Harrier styled her face-framing strands into a half-up half-down style with an intricate braid. Glamsquad suggests using EIMI Flowing Form, an anti-frizz volumizing serum, on damp strands before blow-drying and curling them. Then, spray a lightweight edge control like Kevin Murphy Shimmer Shine to keep them glossy. Dua Lipa’s soft bronde shade is an ideal way to balance bright blonde highlights with natural brunette roots for an exciting summer color change.
