Summer is the perfect time to experiment with a new bold hair color. From orange to teal to mauve, the most intense pastel hues are dominating the 2024 trends, ditching the minimalism of the colder months. In the coming months, we won’t just be living by quiet luxury.
For the daring, blondes and brunettes are out. On vibrant summer tops and the coolest evening wear, hair colors light up with unusual and pigment-rich nuances. To keep them looking their best, even at the beach, all you need to do is refresh them once a week with professional color masks.
Ready to take a journey into the world of color? Get inspired by these 10 alternative hair colors.
1. Orange and raspberry
The vitamin-packed mix of orange and raspberry is one of the hottest summer trends. An alternative to classic red, the orange hue at the hairline is more natural. Towards the ends, it evolves into a richer raspberry nuance, creating a three-dimensional volume effect. The ombrรฉ color, created by Genny D’Auria for Farmaca International salons, meets a soft bob cut with bangs, slightly layered on the forehead. It is ideal for warm skin tones.
2. Copper
The copper by Farmaca International salons is one of the summer alternatives to natural brown. It gives a warm undertone to those with fair skin. The copper nuances of summer 2024 are two: an organic copper that recalls the mineral tones of the earth and a more intense color with bright shades.
3. Irish copper and rose quartz
Irish copper is present in different intensities throughout the hair and is interrupted by a rose quartz shine band. The mix of shades is ideal for fair skin with a warm undertone. The inspiration comes from The Blond Club by Schwarzkopf Professional salons.
4. Orange
The rich-pigmented orange color from Hairevolution Framesi salons is the perfect touch to geometric cuts, such as the bob with a linear fringe. Intended for fair skin with a warm undertone and light eyes, it can also stylishly enhance dark complexions.
5. Blue and mauve
The mauve at the hairline transforms into a lunar blue on the fringe, capable of giving a touch of sophistication to both fair and dark skin with a cool undertone. The sophisticated and elegant hair color is by Farmaca International salons.
6. Smoky edge
The Smoky edge from Indola salons evokes the mystery of a summer sky at dusk, blending soft gray tones with deep charcoal tones. A daring mix of cool and ash colors that suits cool undertone skin.
7. Green and teal
It’s the hair color of the summer for fashion addicts: a mix of green and teal strands, with violet shades. The eccentric nuance, proposed by Farmaca International salons, suits cool undertone skin.
8. Violet and blue
A dance of violet and blue colors meets the global violet and brown color with lighter asymmetrical strands. The whole thing is toned with pastel violet and blue nuances, which highlight the longest part of the cut. The look by Indola salons is dedicated to those with a cool skin undertone.
9. Ruby flash
Rich in bright red nuances, the Ruby flash by Indola salons is distinguished by very vibrant strands that shine on the top of the head. Different shades of red with intense red reflections alternate with mahogany strands. The color proposal is intended for warm undertone skin.
10. 3D red
Dark hair and red strands create 3D color effects. In the look of Hairevolution Framesi salons, the pop red at the hairline recalls the world of manga and is a tribute to the ebony hair. In the look of Schwarzkopf Professional salons, the red lights up with more natural copper tones, focusing on the fringe and ends. The effect is intense, but natural.
