1. Copper Brown
Just before you think we’re talking about orangy bright ginger hair, let us stop you right on your tracks! We’re talking about copper- brown, a super-warm, rich tone that gives your crowning glory that much-needed hint of zing. The brunette gives your locks that luscious deep glossy look while the copper highlights show off every shape and layer! Style your big waves and bangs whichever way you like, we can assure you that this shade will stand out with utmost vibrancy!
Quick cheat sheet: Garner hair colour shades such as strawberry or copper-colored hues work well with pale skin tones. Warm terra cotta or rich sienna flatter darker complexions .

2. Pantone Colour: VERY PERI
Pantone has crowned Very Peri as the core colour of the year 2022. The brilliant blue-purple tone represents hopefulness and happiness for the coming year (yup, we needed this!) Now if it’s the chosen colour of the year, we can safely predict all shades of Purple, from lilac to violet, to be having a MAJOR MOMENT! Bid farewell to natural hues in favour of the purple plunge!
Here’s a quick cheat sheet: The glossy eggplant shade looks stunning on deeper skin tones. Porcelain complexions can rock the blue-purple mashup or lavender. Indigo hits differently on medium skin tones.
Ps: There are no hard and fast rules with shades and undertones tips! Always remember customization is the name of the game!

3. Timeless Balayage
In case you're wondering how to pronounce it, it goes like this: BAH- LAY-AHJ.
Ya...however you say that…the thing up here has been dominating for years now, cause no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE can get over how effortless it looks! The highlights are created in such a way, it seems like the light hits it in all the perfect angles! Don’t know which colour to start with? How about a caramel brown with beach waves? It’s simply stunning on Indian skin tone. Trust me, you’ll look sunkissed even without even stepping out to the beach!

4. Platinum Blonde
Wait! To those who think pearl to pale blonde doesn’t suit Indian skin tone. Think again! Gone are the days of classic golden blonde! The icy-cool blonde is in! If you crack the right undertone, it can be the most flattering bombshell-blonde transformation everrrr! There are 2 ways to get this look, you could either go blonde from the roots (warning: for the brave @ heart only) like Bollywood celeb Lisa Haydon or you could go for simple streaks (if you’re not into major makeovers!)

5. Hardly-There Highlights
Last year was all about chunky highlights that we tried at home! This year is a softer take on them! Btw, this is a terrific alternative if you want little to no maintenance to highlighted hair! Just a few peek-a-boo highlights on the crown of your head and viola! It adds an extra oomph, a lil’ lift, and a wee bit of a face-framing effect in no time! The trick is to go only a couple of shades lighter than your original hue!

6. Midnight Blue
Experts predict that deep blue hues will be trending this year! If you aren’t afraid of experimenting with a striking shade, then this colour should be your next hair goal! The rich and luxurious appearance of the deep blue hue adds a splash of the ocean, especially on jet black hair. A dip-dye + long bob gives you that ultimate mermaid look!
