Instagram Hair Trends

If you want to get ahead of the latest hair trends for summer, the best place to find inspiration is Instagram. Leading hairstylists and influencers are using the social media platform to identify and drive new hair color trends. Looking at what is popular on Instagram for this summer’s hair trends there is a lot of food and drink inspired colors, as well as a little bit of fantasy thrown in. Get some inspiration for a refresh of your hair with some of the biggest Instagram hair color trends.

1Vanilla Milkshake Hair

If you are looking for a more natural hair refresh for the summer months, Vanilla Milkshake is the hair color trend you have been looking for. Multiple shades of blonde are blended through the lengths of the hair, with the roots kept as their natural color, to create a beautiful sun-kissed and lived-in look. The brightest shades of blonde are reserved for the tops of the hair for a subtle ombre that is completely natural looking.

5Periwinkle Hair

If you are wanting to try out a pastel hair color this year, make periwinkle your shade of choice. The shade is a delightfully dreamy shade of pastel blue that has lavender undertones. The color is cool and icy, and so perfect for festival season. You will need to have a very light base (platinum blonde is best) before dying your hair periwinkle to get the best results. If you are looking to create this look for yourself at home, Artic Fox has the perfect semi-permanent shade, called periwinkle.
