Hair Styles Spring / Summer 2012 Part 1

Retro Glamour 

Step into Spring Summer with subtle radiance. For your softer side we have tones with a bamboo essence, creating cedar wood brunettes, tea rose and coffee crème.

Blondes! We have nutmeg, crème caramel and liquid cream. For your bolder side we have ice cream pastels with mint, bitter lemon, glacier blue and rose pink. 

Your colourist will layer it up creating block layers or all over one colour for true tone. 

Inspired by the catwalks and glamorous screen icons our aim was to achieve voluminous beautiful styles combined with bang on-trend colour. 

Last winter we saw ‘Antique Rose’ colour take off in a big way and this season we are seeing lots of very clean blondes, even a minky colour to the hair with powder pastel flashes. 

The team wanted to take the hair colour away from the overdone dip dye look and transform the adventurous pastel shades spread across the catwalk into elegant wearable tones. 

The technique involved slices of pastel colours to suit each skin tone placed underneath and around the face – secret placements. Brooks+Brooks want women to step in Spring-Summer with subtle radiance.

Colour: Super pale, clear crystal highlights were placed throughout and then underneath, at the ends and around the face hints of Parma violet, sugar almond pink zing out in a pointillist technique – where the dynamic between two complimentary colours brings an intensity that could not be achieved with one shade alone. 

Styling: Blowdry using a paddle brush. Set hair on medium sized heated rollers and leave until completely cool. Brush through lightly and hold with a mist of hairspray.
