Colour's Heating Up
Autumn’s here and it’s time to turn heads with beautiful, wearable hair. Think colour that enhances and just glows with health. Check out the predictions of some of the best in the business.
The personal approach
For Bad Apple’s Rita Benedetto, Autumn will see clients taking things all the way back when it comes to hair colour.
“I feel that this Autumn we will see a big shift towards warm, coppery tones as clients return to a more natural look. Hair colour is more personalised and easier to wear than ever, and I think it’s all about colour that is very low maintenance.
“Strawberry blonde is also a massive new trend. Rosy hues are extremely flattering and easy to maintain with Schwarzkopf Gold Shampoo. As our clients aren’t at the office as much, they’re able to play with lots of tonal colour options, and pink hair has been one of the most Googled looks over lockdown. I think people are realising that playing with colour can be low commitment when it’s done right.” Follow Rita @riibendz @badapplehair
OSMO Ambassador, Becky Sutherland agrees when it comes to the pink trend. “Over the past few months metallic hair has been popular, particularly pink metallic through the springtime, as a result we’re seeing a rise in clients who are shifting from auburn hair to a metallic copper. I think these copper hues are going to be a very popular trend in the Winter too, as they add warmth and are a really wearable option for anyone who prefers a more natural look, but can also be amped up to a brighter orange copper for those who are feeling a little more expressive!” @beckypinklemonhair
Seeing red
Dylan Brittain, of Rainbow Room International and Schwarzkopf UK Ambassador says there’s a red shade for every skin tone and that Autumn is the perfect time to make the switch.
“Reds and coppers are beautiful for adding a warmth and glow to a client’s complexion. Ruby reds and fiery coppers will be particularly on-trend this season and with these hues it’s really important to recommend high quality, professional shampoos, conditioners, hair masks and treatments for clients to use at home.
“For brunettes, I think a subtle tone of red looks gorgeous and will add a beautiful sheen to the hair,” continues Dylan, before breaking down his blonde forecast.
“It’s not just about golden or honey blondes; instead we’re loving apricot blondes. They have a slight tinge of red and look truly beautiful against all skin tones. Softer in appearance than a copper but richer than your usual golden blonde, apricot blonde is perfect for blondes who want to experiment with their hair colour for the new season without trying something too drastic. Plus, this will blend back to a golden blonde beautifully.” @dylanbrittainhair
“Throughout AW21 I think we will see lots of darker tones mixed in with lighter pieces to create that custom blend,” says Jay Birmingham.
“I like to call it the ‘halo effect’: golden browns and brunette tones are paired with honey and caramel shades of blonde around the outer layers of the hair to add a light effect and add some depth. This colour is a great way to play around with blonde and little upkeep is required as the light tones grow out beautifully.” @jaybirminghamhair
Joico’s David Murray says it’s less about being subtle and that clients are going to want some seriously bold options. “Clients want to take advantage of their newfound freedom so I think they will be looking for flashes of colour, inspired by the ‘90s. Think bright and bold fuschia pink, ruby red and ocean blue!”
Rich, deep tones are calling for Dan Spiller, JOICO Color Ambassador for the UK, Europe and Ireland.
“As we move into autumn our attention turns to new, rich colours and first up is ruby red. It’s all about creating a beautiful, ruby red, and embracing the richness of red hues and partnering them with a vibrant shade. A really invigorating colour, this will be hugely popular for those looking for something a bit bolder.
“For those looking for something more subtle, the Californian blonde is back, with a twist. Created with a darkened root, this beautiful colour works in with the clients’ natural root, while adding a new dimension to the hair. Using a mixture of low lights to break up the blonde, this will be a very popular look for Autumn.” @danspiller2010

The K18 ingredients you need for your cleanest hair yet!
Has your client ever asked you abour ingredients in the products that you use on them?
Have you found yourself scanning the back of the packaging and googling the names and feeling a little lost?
You're not alone. Ingredient labels are complex when it comes to haircare and contain an array of unfamilar natural chemical and biological ingredients with confusing names. We are here to give you the tools you need to translate and explain to your clients what is in the products that you use on them in the salon and which K18 products can help you achieve the cleanest hair yet!
A Week In My Shoes - Yovanka Loria
Spend the week with Yovanka Loria, a salon owner and founder of a multifaceted global business, Yovanka Loria Extensions.
Is K18 a Protein?
K18 is built differently...
As hair stylists, we all know about protein overload. That dreaded dry, brittle feeling in the hair is not only an undesirable result, but any treatments you apply won't be able to penetrate deep into the hair fibre and work their magic. But don’t worry! K18 has got your back.
Chantelle: Capital & Me, my self-employed journey & the importance of networking
Introducing Chantelle, a talented beautician, hair extension specialist and proud owner of ‘Chantelle’s Beautique’. We sit down with Chantelle as she tells us how she started out in the industry, her top tips for becoming self-employed, struggles she faced and overcame along the way and her favourite products that she can’t live without!
My treatment room is based in my garden at home and I offer a full range of Hair and Beauty treatments specialising in skin care, brows & hair extensions. My clients love my set up and really appreciate the little touches like being able to park with ease and having more of a cosy experience away from the hustle and bustle of a busy salon. As well as running my own business at home, I also enjoy teaching others on their journey starting out in the trade with my own accredited courses at home as another branch of my business called ‘The Hair and Beauty Training Beautique’. You may also see me in your local Capital Hair & Beauty as I also tutor for one of their training providers ‘Face Forward’ offering brow lamination and lash lift and tint courses.
Meet Sophie, owner of ‘Sophie’s Lashes & Beauty’ which she has been running now for over 7 years!
Sophie gained a wealth of experience working in the industry from her background working in prestigious 5 hotel & spa and salon settings which lead her up to starting a business of her own. We talk about all things beauty and the curved tweezers that she can’t live without!
Hi Sophie, tell us a little bit about your journey and how you go into the industry and what lead up to starting out on your own?
I gained a lot of knowledge from working in different settings from working with a big teams in a 5 star hotels and spas to smaller beauty salon environments. I gained so much knowledge from working in both settings and although it was hard work and long hours.
I started out by working in a few different 5 star hotels with spas and a salons where I gained all my knowledges and experiences from each one to put together for my own business! It was hard work and long hours all the practice paid off. It was actually one of my clients I saw regularly in the salon I worked at that said I should set up on my own and gave me the confidence to go self-employed and I’ve not looked back since!
K18 Biomimetic Hair Science vs. Bond Builders
As professionals in the hairdressing industry, we're well aware of the constant innovation occurring in our field. Our clients love to dramatically alter their look with the ever-changing trends and we do everything we can to prioritise the health of their hair. Bond-building treatments have long been a staple in salons to address this need. However, allow us to present the latest advancement: biomimetic hair science and K18!
Understanding the Future of Haircare: From Bond Builders to Biomimetic Hair Science
For centuries, the haircare industry relied on cosmetic chemistry to conceal damage. Historical solutions like oils and conditioners were designed to sit on the surface of the hair, providing a temporary fix by improving its appearance and manageability. However, these solutions fell short of addressing hair's health at its core.
K18 & Your Salon Services - How to incorporate K18 Services for Ultimate Hair Restoration
Learn how to leverage K18 products in your salon services to reverse damage, fortify hair and enhance salon results all whilst boosting your salon profits. Discover our step-by-step instructions for every treatment, from lightening to styling in our handy salon go-to guide!
What is K18 and how does it work?
Following the natural structure of hair, the biologically active peptide is considered natural. Unlike traditional bonding agents, it is not rinsed away by water or shampoo, making K18 a genuine and enduring remedy for damaged hair. Healthy hair originates in the salon, and K18 believes its influence starts at the salon chair and radiates outward. While K18 is suitable for all hair types and services, the most significant improvements are seen in damaged hair.
