Insta hair trend #1: Hair Dusting
This is the perfect haircut for the girl who hates haircuts or desperately trying to hold on to their length. Stylists snip away only the dead, split ends so instead of a pile of hair on the floor, it’s typically only about ¼ of an inch “dusted” off the ends.
Insta hair trend #2: Hair Hardware
Barrettes are #bae. The coolest finishing touch to any #upstyling is an oversized, shiny barrette or hair cuff. Whether it’s paired with an intricate, origami-inspired topknot or slid into a crimped, 70s-inspired ’do, it’s the accessory du jour.

Insta hair trend #3: Pastelage
Can’t decide what shade of unicorn hair your want? This trend of baby-fine Balayage using rainbow hues of lavender, pink, peach and seafoam green will satisfy your colourful streak.

Insta hair trend #4: Corset Braids
We first spotted this trend at Vancouver Fashion Week and it is now taking over ‘Gram. With lace or grosgrain ribbon it’s super pretty for bridesmaid hair but we like the take for festival hair – just a couple of tiny braids above the ear stitched together with a string of leather.

Insta hair trend #5: Palm Painting
Colourists are getting more hands-on, literally. This new hightllighting technique is like Balayage without the brushes. Dreamed up by London-based colourist Marcos Verissimo, it allows the stylist to get more creative and go totally freehand so your sun-kissed look is even more customized to your hair colour, texture and type (but don’t forget the gloves!)
