As spring unfolds, hair colour trends are all about warmth, dimension, and natural luminosity. According to Brian ‘Leo’ McCallum, Owner and Colour Director of ROAR Hair & Beauty, this season’s standout shades include Sunflower Blonde, Teddy Bear Bronde, and Almond Milk Blonde. These looks not only highlight evolving client preferences but showcase the artistry and technical skill of professional colourists.
Achieving these multi-tonal styles requires precision in colour placement and tone management. Maintaining vibrancy and hair health remains key, with gloss treatments and hydration-focused aftercare essential for keeping locks looking fresh and glossy.
Sunflower Blonde: A Sunlit Glow
Radiant and rich, Sunflower Blonde is inspired by the golden hues of sunflower petals. This warm, luminous shade features buttery highlights, soft honey tones, and caramel lowlights for a multi-dimensional effect.
Achieving the look begins with a golden base and delicate caramel accents to create depth. Adding subtle highlights boosts brightness, resulting in a glowing, sun-kissed finish. Gloss treatments every 4 to 6 weeks preserve vibrancy, paired with sulfate-free products and hydrating treatments to lock in shine.
Perfect for clients craving a bright, low-maintenance blonde, Sunflower Blonde offers flattering warmth with a touch of nostalgic charm—a nod to early 2000s icons like Britney Spears.
Teddy Bear Bronde: A Natural Balance
For clients seeking a seamless blend of blonde and brunette, Teddy Bear Bronde is an elegant choice. Seen on Sydney Sweeney, this soft hue combines creamy light brunette with honey-blonde highlights for a luminous, understated effect.
With its lack of harsh contrast, Teddy Bear Bronde offers versatile appeal. A root drag enhances longevity, while face-framing honey pieces add brightness and softness. Weekly hydration treatments and professional gloss every 6 weeks keep the shade reflective and fresh.
Effortlessly flattering across skin tones, Teddy Bear Bronde is perfect for clients desiring a relaxed, natural blonde-brunette fusion.
Almond Milk Blonde: Creamy Sophistication
A rising trend this spring, Almond Milk Blonde blends creamy platinum tones with cool, ashy undertones for a dimensional, glamorous finish. Inspired by Lindsay Lohan’s Hollywood transformation, this shade captures vintage elegance with a modern twist.
Achieving Almond Milk Blonde involves precision application of highlights, lowlights, and an ashy shadow root for depth. Regular toning treatments maintain the delicate balance between richness and coolness, while sulfate-free shampoos and leave-in conditioners ensure optimal care.
For clients seeking a bold yet natural statement, Almond Milk Blonde is the perfect spring upgrade.
These three vibrant shades—Sunflower Blonde, Teddy Bear Bronde, and Almond Milk Blonde—are set to dominate salons this season. With their blend of artistry and innovation, they’re guaranteed to turn heads and inspire transformations.
