What to start a new year with? With a new haircut and new hair color, of course! We have already discussed trends for haircuts, and now it’s time to speak about the top hair colors that will be on in 2024.
Expensive Brunette
Vibrant brunette tones that give luxurious and expensive energy are going to carry on strongly well into 2024. This high-shine, glossy look really complements what we’re seeing on the runways this year, as well. With all of these lighter, pastel tones in clothing, a bolder, richer hair color acts as the perfect contrast.
If you want to try a cool-toned brunette, ask your stylist for a cool, metallic undertone that minimizes red. She also says it’s important to have a conversation about maintaining your new color. Brunettes tend to warm up over time, and using cool color depositing glosses and conditioners will help keep your tone in place.

Bronde
Bronde is exactly what it sounds like — a happy medium between blonde and brunette. In 2024, the soft, blended shade is the perfect choice for those who are noncommittal about drastic hair choices. Plus, it echos a wider return to natural, low maintenance glam. These shades look more natural and softer than what we’ve been seeing the past couple of years in heavily highlighted and platinum looks with darker roots. The blend is more seamless. We are already seeing fashion references for 2024 that embrace nature-inspired color and this hair trend follows that aesthetic.
In order for the shade to look multitonal and complex, it’s important to leave plenty of lowlight or background pigment in the hair to keep it toasty and ‘bronde’ as opposed to fully blonde. This shade can be either warm or cool-toned — that will be up to preference.

Subtle Highlights
2023 saw a return to the chunky highlights of the ‘90s and early 2000s, with face-framing “money piece” highlights being a standout trend. In 2024, however, subtle, blended highlights will be more popular among a range of hair colors. Hair color trends are evolving away from one-color process. Women with brown hair will add shades of highlights in shades like copper red and cinnamon brown. Blondes might incorporate strawberry blonde, pinks or even lavender blue highlights. For a more conservative look, a blonde may use contrasting golden highlights and darker dirty blonde shades.
