What’s trending?
A third of women said that they would be interested in trying a vivid hair color (non-natural colors).

Of all color trends, women 65-plus are most interested in testing out the money piece, a chunkier, face-framing root to tip highlight perfect for brightening up your face.
"The money piece is definitely a trend that is a new constant in my salons! I get at least 3-4 request for face framing, chunky highlights every day."—Oliver Adams, haircolor artist
Roughly 1 in 4 women want to return to their natural color.
