As we step into Spring, the world of hair is embracing effortless elegance, soft movement and tailored colour that enhances natural beauty. The key trends this season focus on healthy, touchable hair with a polished but low-maintenance feel, something we’re passionate about at Serenity Hair & Spa. Whether you’re looking for a fresh cut, a seasonal colour refresh, or a style that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle, here’s what’s trending in UK salons.
SUN-KISSED, DIMENSIONAL COLOUR
Spring is all about warmth and light, and hair colour is reflecting just that. Overly cool, ashy tones are fading out, making way for richer, more dimensional hues. Think buttery blondes, golden caramels, and deep, espresso brunettes; all colours that add warmth and depth while remaining natural.
Celebrities like Hailey Bieber and Margot Robbie are leading the way with soft, honey-toned highlights, giving a grown-out, seamless effect that looks as if the sun has naturally lifted their hair. Balayage and lived-in highlights continue to be popular, but the focus this Spring is on ultra-blended placement, so regrowth is softer and easier to maintain.
THE REVIVAL OF THE BOB
Shorter styles are having a major moment, with the bob taking centre stage. This year’s bob is sleek but soft, sitting at jaw or collarbone length with natural movement. Zendaya’s sharp, Parisian-style bob at the Oscars has sparked a wave of requests for polished but wearable short styles.
For those who prefer a little more softness, the “boyfriend bob” is trending, this is an undone, tousled texture with a slightly longer length that just skims the shoulders. It’s a great option for those transitioning from longer hair but still wanting versatility in their style.
GLOSSY, HEALTHY-LOOKING HAIR
Shiny, nourished hair is a huge trend, and this Spring’s biggest statement isn’t just about colour or cut, it’s about hair health. With the rise of glass-like shine, many clients are moving away from over-processed styles and opting for treatments that restore strength and hydration.
Hydrating glosses, bond-repairing treatments and scalp health rituals are at the forefront of salon treatments. We’re seeing a surge in demand for oil-based treatments that enhance both the scalp and hair, leaving hair resilient and naturally glossy. Serenity Hair health & well-being oils are perfect for maintaining salon results at home, keeping hair silky and nourished between appointments.
THE RETURN OF THE 90’S BOUNCY BLOW DRY
If there’s one nostalgic trend making a full comeback, it’s the voluminous 90s-inspired blow-dry. Think supermodel hair, bouncy, full, and ultra-glam! This Spring, we’re moving away from super-straight, flat-ironed looks and embracing movement and body.
Gigi Hadid and Sofia Richie have been seen wearing big, brushed-out waves that scream effortless glamour. To achieve this, a mix of a good blow-dry, a round brush, and rollers creates soft volume that lasts for days.
The thing to remember above all, is personalisation. No matter the latest styles, hair should always be customised to suit each individual, their features, skin tone and lifestyle. Whether it’s a fresh colour, a flattering cut, or a voluminous 90s-inspired blow-dry, the key to feeling on-trend is making sure it works for them, because the best hair is the hair that feels truly their own.
