Jennifer Aniston’s been quietly proving that mid-length layers are the move, while Eva Longoria adapted the butterfly cut for women actually over 40, and suddenly every salon’s chair is filling with the same request: something that doesn’t scream “I’m trying too hard” but absolutely lifts the face. The Italian bob with its frayed ends and …

I’m seeing it everywhere—Beyoncé’s high-contrast waves at the Grammys, Taylor Swift’s dishwater ash on the Eras Tour, and my own colorist’s chair booked solid through June with clients asking for the same thing: cool tones that don’t look brassy by week two.

Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Espresso’ music video dropped and suddenly every salon in a fifty-mile radius was booked solid for one thing: Nectar Blonde.

Dua Lipa’s cherry-copper shift for her world tour, Megan Fahy’s strawberry copper at the Emmys, Lindsay Lohan proving it works at any age. The pattern’s obvious: we’re done with flat reds. The move is multi-tonal, expensive-looking copper that catches light like actual sunlight …
Air Touch balayage isn’t new, but what’s happening in salons right now is different. Tracey Cunningham just dropped a masterclass on root smudging with Air Touch, Romeu Felipe’s high-contrast technique is everywhere, and my feed is flooded with the before-and-afters—soft honey tones melting into champagne, mushroom brondes that actually look lived-in, peach fuzz that doesn’t …
