DREAMY SUMMER BLONDES FROM TIM SCOTT-WRIGHT
Award-winning stylist and salon owner, Tim Scott-Wright, shares his top blonde trends for the summer: Brushed Blonde, Honeysuckle Blonde, and Chantilly Blonde
Tim says: “My favourite blondes for the summer season are warm and soft with an ethereal, dreamy quality. Think golden hour, sun-kissed and creamy with depth at the root for an undone, easy-going, almost boho feel.”
Brushed Blonde
The epitome of sun-kissed elegance. A subtle summer tone, combines light, natural highlights with a slightly deeper root shade to create a seamless, lived-in blonde. Brushed Blonde is perfect for those who’ve rocked blonde before and experimented with darker shades. Think light faded sombré, starting with muted roots and blending into soft blonde ends. Colourists can add dimension in the midshaft to create a beautiful natural look.
Honeysuckle Blonde
A warm, honey-toned blonde that’s rich and vibrant. This glowing, dimensional colour is perfect for blonde lovers looking for a new tone. Honeysuckle Blonde has a radiant, timeless shine with a touch of easy-going glamour. The key is selecting the perfect toner to achieve this sunny, honey blonde.
Chantilly Blonde
This dreamy, milky white tone is perfect for warmer skin tones, making the bright blonde pop while adding depth and contrast to your look. The Chantilly Blonde is creamy and warm, like a sweet buttercream dream. A good homecare routine will be vital for clients to maintain this tone and avoid yellowing.
Tim emphasises the importance of personalised consultations and thorough assessments of hair condition before embarking on any colouring journey.
Tim adds: “Understanding your client’s hair history, lifestyle, and desired maintenance level is key to achieving and maintaining the perfect blonde. Education and technique are the foundation of beautiful hair colour.”
