With "Hair Frosting" a new coloring trend from London is spilling over to us

Balayage is a true classic, an undisputed coloring trend, and a salon favorite. But a little variety is never bad, right? That's exactly what we're getting with "Hair Frosting". This style is considered the best alternative to balayage, is already a big hit in London, and has the potential to take off worldwide.

"Hair Frosting" is the new coloring trend

"French Glossing" and "Expensive Brunette" are the color trends that are likely to increase their popularity in 2022. Now a new look joins the list of trendy hair colors: "Hair Frosting". Developed by Stuart Marsh, Color Director at Taylor Taylor London, this alternative to balayage leaves hair looking vibrant and fresh. The effect is created by the play of colors of light and dark strands. To be more precise, hairdressers use this technique to select individual strands that are given a cool blonde tone from the roots to the tips. The rest of the hair is left completely untreated.

This is what defines the London alternative to balayage

The gentle contrasts that characterize "Hair Frosting" ensure a multi-faceted finish that is very harmonious despite the slight salt-pepper effect. The different shades blend together as the lightened strands fall on top of the dark ones. Similar to the frost that settles on trees in winter. Hence the name was given to the dyeing trend from London. Incidentally, this is a great alternative to balayage because highlights are used in a different way to create a result that looks like it has been kissed by the sun.
