Sun-kissed blonde is the colour of lockdown (if it’s good enough for J-Lo…)

Lockdown has made us all reassess our hair, especially if you’re a longtime fan of the bleach, like me. In the last 7 years, I’ve been white blonde, pastel pinkcopper, and more – but I’ve never been drawn to the natural look. Until now. By month four of lockdown, my once all-over coloured hair now looked like a botched dip dye. I was 90% root.

And that’s the key to this trend. Stay away from chunky highlights or anything to formulaic – use different sized highlights, and play with several colours to make sure you don’t go into ‘blocky’ hair territory. J-LoKylie Jenner and Pixie Lott all swear by this trend!

If you’re giving up colourful hues, for a more subtle style, then your hair might need some TLC. Harriet suggests “investing in Olaplex No3 take home and using it once a week – you should leave this on damp hair before washing. This will rebuild the structure of the hair and stop the breakage, Along with Oway shampoo and conditioner to prolong the longevity of the colour. This should keep the condition of the hair well.” Read more
