THE TREND
ART ATTACK
Play around with brights and
neons, paint high contrast
balayages and sculpt highlystylised
looks to create
something that’s truly a work
of art, reflecting the continuing
individualism trend. “Stylists
and clients alike have been
flirting with the idea of
graphic and unnatural hair
colour for a while,” says Conor
Doyle, educator and stylist at
Peter Mark. “However, a new
movement is taking hold;
unapologetic and loud, vivid
shades. Under no circumstances
is this totally new – a brief scroll
through Instagram brings us to
many multi-coloured fantasies
– but what has shifted is the
perception of how ‘wearable’
these looks are.”
Goldwell UK guest artist Neil
Barton agrees it’s the perfect
time to set your imagination
free. “This year bold, bright
colours are super on-trend and
are a great way for clients to be
experimental,” he says.
The combination of colour
and method of application
is important in this trend.
“Pinks, blues and greens are
appearing more frequently,”
says Conor. “This presents itself
in editorial work as graphic
hair painting or graffiti-style
imprints. We see this softened
for our commercial clientele
as neon colour contours and
primary colour blocking. There
is a movement away from the
fluidity and seamless blends
into something designed to
catch your eye and add drama.”
It’s even possible to create
an artwork-inspired look using
just one colour, as Mark Leeson,
Revlon Professional’s new
global artistic ambassador, has
in the Redvolution collection.
He adds: “Using contrasting
reds and coppers in geometric
shapes to define the cut is a
great way to create impact.”
