ROSE QUARTZ

Pastel colours and more vibrant acid brights are now achievable thanks to both in-salon options and home-kit colours making temporary adjustments simple.

Most desirable? Soft, almost washed-out shades. During New York Fashion Week it was Austrian model Stella Lucia’s rose quartz at the Alexander Wang show that turned heads. The multi-tonal look was created by hair maestro Guido Palau.

Irwin suggests asking for a toner adjustment if you’re blonde and keen to try the trend. “A perfect way to embrace the pastel trend without being too out there is with babylights (soft blended highlights) to keep light around the face and going with more of a beige toner with just a hint of rose gold or pastel pink through the ends.”
