Hot Hair Trends: Colorful Hair (aka Unicorn and Mermaid Hair)
In case you haven’t noticed, we’re huge color lovers at Bang Salon. And no, we’re not just talking about hair color in general, we’re talking loud, in-your-face, bright, and bold colorful hair.
Whether you call it unicorn hair, mermaid hair or rebellious, it doesn’t matter the label, we’re obsessed with it all.
Of course, stylists have a tendency to be drawn to the styles and colors many might consider wacky, but we’re seeing a huge trend in people of all ages and professions hopping on the colorful hair train lately, which means we’re not the only rebels out there.
If you’ve been feeling the itch to add some new hues to your life, here’s some bright mermaid/unicorn/rainbow hair color inspiration ranging from subtle to sultry to get your wheels turning about what you want at your next appointment…
