2013 Hair Color Trends

Darker Accent Pieces

When predicting new hair trends for the new year, it’s important to also look at what type of hairstyles are still super popular. Dumas expects the braid and bun trends to gain momentum in 2013. “Darker accent pieces underneath your top layer of hair will be a big trend, mainly because it adds an extra dimension when your hair is pulled up in a high bun or twisted into braids,” she explains.

This is a perfect look if you want to do something a bit on the edgy side without being over-the-top crazy. “This is a great option if you have a corporate job, because it’s a fun and sneaky way to do something a little different, ” says Dumas. “You can wear your hair down for a more conservative look, but then as soon as you pull your hair up, the darker accent pieces make it look trendy.”
