Another day, another hair colour trend to obsess over. This autumn has been serving up plenty of looks, from boho blonde to nineties blonde and even tobacco brunette, but I’m here to talk about a certain autumnal blonde hue that I predict will be everywhere during fashion month. Say hello to the “socialite blonde” hair trend.
What Is the Socialite Blonde Hair Trend?
So, what is this trend? Coined by leading colour specialist and style innovation salon STIL, socialite blonde is a carefree, cool-girl colour trend that has become increasingly popular on the global fashion scene.
“Evolving from the old money aesthetic, this new luminous blonde is all about effortless, off-duty luxe with ‘it girl’ energy,” says Christel Barron-Hough, award-winning colourist and founder of STIL. “Spun with sunlit, pale gold and crème blonde hues, it says understated elegance but with a brighter, fresher twist for the new season.”
To achieve this laid-back yet luxurious blonde, Barron-Hough recommends using an all-over colour or saturating the hair with back-to-back highlights. “Ultimately, the goal with socialite blonde is to create a colour that is bright and impactful, but which feels effortless and relaxed.”
