The New Hair Color Trend That is About to Be Everywhere

episode 36:

What if the best hair color is the kind people don’t immediately notice?

In this episode of Lessons From Your Hairstylist, Sarah explores skin toned hair color, an emerging trend centered on creating soft, harmonious color that complements your complexion, eyes, brows, and natural features. Rather than relying on bold highlights or dramatic contrast, this approach uses a carefully blended palette to create hair that looks polished, elevated, and completely personal.

Skin toned hair color does not mean matching your hair to your skin. It means choosing warm, cool, or neutral shades that work beautifully with your natural undertones. The result still has dimension, but the highs and lows melt together seamlessly for a softer, more monochromatic effect.

Think less “notice my highlights” and more “you look amazing, but I can’t quite put my finger on why.”

Sarah walks you through how to find your most flattering palette, what to say to your stylist, and which questions to ask to help you decide if this trend is right for you.

Join Sarah Crews as she explores the growing trend of skin toned hair color. Learn how choosing shades that complement your natural undertones can create soft, seamless dimension and a personalized look that enhances your features without obvious contrast.
