It’s a phrase we have all used while ringing in the New Year and making our resolutions: “New year, new you.” The past year of 2015 was the year of crazy hair trends; from rainbow-dyed hair to natural balayage, to not-your-grandmother’s-gray hair. Although living up to the previous trends may seem daunting in the upcoming year, this Fashionista is proving that funky hair trends are only just beginning.
This Fashionista is a converted brunette, and isn’t making plans to ditch her new ‘do. She first made the transition by starting slow and dip-dyeing the tips of her hair, which was one of the many trends embraced throughout 2015. She took it one giant step further by bleaching all of her hair and finally committing to the blonde life. Of course, for any brunette, going blonde is a big change and root-upkeep is a serious responsibility. This Fashionista creatively addressed these concerns by meticulously covering up her part with a thick line of gold glitter. The glitter not only covers up any growing roots, but also acts as an accessory.
College campuses are the breeding grounds of self-expression. Unconventional hairstyles are commonly seen occurrences on your daily walk to class and coloring your hair is a great way to show your personality. Changing up trends and trying something out-of-the-norm can keep things interesting when you come back to school after break. If you are looking to experiment with your look in the New Year, you can start by trying out this simple, yet bold, hair trend.
What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: To recreate this hair trend, start by finding colorful glitter that complements the natural tones within your hair in order to keep the look subtle. Mixing glitter and gel should keep the glitter in place, but adding small amounts of post-application hairspray will keep it from becoming messy throughout the day.
