Hairdressers are largely responsible for setting hair trends, but there are certain styles they’re well and truly sick of being asked for.
We asked six top celebrity stylists to reveal the trend they wish would dye die… and were totally surprised. You’ve been warned.
1. Balayage
The hair colour trend adopted by approximately 64 per cent* of the female population has reached its peak, with no less than half the hairstylists claiming they’d had enough.
“I find most balayage boring and bland. Push your hairdresser or colourist to be more individual!” says Moroccan oil ambassador Peter Gray who was recently in Australia for the Hair Expo.

“It’s time for hairdressers to rule out the normal request for boring balayage and get a little creative and suggest easy to maintain colours, but allow us to get the mind ticking and get dirty with those colours,” agrees Aleks Abadia of Esstudio Galleria.
However that doesn’t mean giving up the ombre look altogether.
“I’m enjoying looking at subtler, more natural looking blended colours which look glossy and expensive. More ‘sombre’ than the more contrast-y ombre colour that was so popular last year,” says Barney Martin. (Post continues after gallery.)
