It's Confirmed: Toasted Brunette Is the Go-To A-List Hair Colour This Summer
From Daisy Edgar-Jones to Camila Morrone, this warm brunette hue is proving incredibly popular this season.
When it comes to summer hair trends, especially hair colour trends, we're pretty used to seeing the same old things. Bright blonde tones, balayage...the list goes on. As much as I'm a fan of these trends (I've been sporting blonde balayage for a good few years now), I've noticed more and more celebs opting for a certain brunette hue this season. Enter the toasted brunette hair trend.
As the name suggests, the toasted nature of this hair colour has a warming appeal, almost like a honey undertone throughout. The result? A glossy, rich hue that looks chic, expensive and perfect for summer. Plus, it's very low maintenance, so you don't have to worry about visiting the salon every six weeks.
If you're still not sold, I highly suggest that you keep on scrolling to see the likes of Daisy Edgar-Jones, Camila Morrone and Halle Berry giving the trend a go. If it's good enough for them...
