Lived in balayage with a longer, noticeable root
A lived in balayage with a longer root is a brilliant spring option for clients who want dimension without constant root upkeep. The deliberate depth at the root keeps the overall look modern and wearable, while lighter pieces through the mid-lengths and ends bring brightness and texture.
Benefits
This approach helps soften regrowth, adds natural-looking contrast, and can make hair appear fuller because of the light and shade effect.
Who it suits
This trend works particularly well if you prefer fewer colour appointments, if you like your hair to look expensive but not overly done, or if you are growing out previous highlights.
Maintenance tips
Try an in-salon hair treatment and use a nourishing mask regularly at home to keep lightened lengths feeling supple. Heat protection and a good blow-dry technique also help maintain shine between appointments.
Back to black, glossy, rich, and timeless
Darker hair has a strong place in spring trends too, especially when it is finished with high shine and bouncy waves. A rich black tone can look effortless and polished, and it pairs beautifully with clean haircuts like bobs, or with long layers for a more dramatic finish.
Maintenance and shine
Glossy dark colour shows every detail, so hydration and smoothing care make a visible difference. A consistent home routine helps the colour look reflective, not flat.
Blunt cut bob haircuts that look modern and not too severe
The bob is having a moment this spring thanks it’s low-maintenance, versatile, and gives hair a fresh, polished shape that works beautifully. A bob can be tailored to your features and your styling habits, whether you prefer something sleek or something with more bend and movement.
Benefits
A bob can make hair feel thicker, worn curly or straight, and refresh your overall look without relying on dramatic colour changes.
Who it suits
Clients who want a strong shape, who like low fuss styling, or who feel their longer hair has become heavy or flat often love a bob.
Aftercare and styling
Regular trims keep the shape looking crisp. If you enjoy a softer finish, a blow dry with gentle bend through the ends creates a modern silhouette without looking overly styled.
Long layered styles and curtain fringe
If you love your length but want more life in it, long layered styles are a spring staple. Layers can be placed to add movement through the ends and to stop longer hair from looking weighed down. Pairing layers with a curtain fringe is a simple way to update your look while keeping it versatile.
Benefits
Long layers build bounce and flow, and a curtain fringe frames the face for a softer, more balanced look.
Who it suits
This is ideal if you tie your hair up often, if you want a style that still looks good air dried, or if you want face framing without committing to a blunt fringe line.
Maintenance
Curtain fringes generally grow out gracefully, but they benefit from quick fringe trims and a simple styling lesson so you can recreate the shape at home.
Ready for a spring refresh?
The best hairstyle is the kind that feels like a better version of you rather than a dramatic change. Whether you are drawn to a rich glossy brunette, a warm blonde or something a little more playful, the right approach depends on your hair, your lifestyle and how much upkeep you actually want.
