"When it comes to colour, you don't want something that requires too much precision," reveals hairstylist to the stars George Northwood. "Something that has become a bit of a signature of ours
"Over the first lockdown, a lot of my clients saw their natural colour growing through and have actually gotten used to it," Northwood continues. "So we are now seeing a lot more clients who are now experimenting with keeping their hair closer to their natural colour, which is far more easily managed and can see you through those longer gaps between appointments, which is a smart move in these times of uncertainty."
Another top hairdresser who shares this sentiment is the authority on hair colour, Rita Hazan. "I believe that people will start to embrace low-maintenance colour in 2021," Hazan explains. "After having gone so long without a salon visit during lockdown, this is bound to happen. Single-process colour and/or covering grey roots are simpler to do at home, even with a home kit. Just find a colour that is closest to what you have. Like soft balayage, subtle highlights are also low-maintenance and can grow out nicely, even with roots, because there isn't too much of a contrast.”
