'Scandi Blonde' Is The New Platinum Hair Trend For 2019

Noticing a pattern over the last couple of months, Harriet says her clients have been specifically citing 'creamy', 'buttery' blondes as their ultimate look, as opposed to cool, grey tones.

"Combining both warm and cool tones within the toner is the perfect way to get an even balance", she explains. "Too many cool tones would render it icy, while overdoing warm tones would end up brassy."

In terms of up-keep, she recommends Redken's 'Blondage' shampoo and conditioner to keep it looking fresh in-between root touch-ups.

And while a full head of bleach may seem like a life-long commitment, it's surprisingly easy to return to your own colour - should you ever want to - without months spent trying to hide that dreaded line via a handy little technique called the 'root stretch'.

"If a client decides to return to their natural colour, we recommend they visit for a 'root stretch', where we add subtle bleach highlights into their roots for a more natural transition from one hue to the next during growth."

See, not as scary as you thought! See you in the salon...
