Gone are the days of religiously booking root touch-ups every six weeks. The new hair trend is all about embracing a more natural and lived-in look. Just take a look at Zendaya, who recently stepped out in Los Feliz rocking her dark roots with pride. Dressed in a casual jumper and combat trouser combo, with barely any makeup, Zendaya’s bright blonde lob was voluminous and thick, cascading effortlessly over her shoulders.
This look is a perfect example of how roots don’t have to look unkempt or too in-your-face. Zendaya’s natural regrowth actually adds a touch of coolness, preventing her blonde from looking too polished or strict. In fact, many colorists utilize this technique when taking clients lighter. Instead of applying bleach right up to the root, they strategically leave a bit of the client’s natural, darker shade. This creates a less calculated, more effortlessly chic look.
So, if your own roots are starting to peek through, why not embrace them? Zendaya is inspiring a new wave of hair trends, encouraging us to celebrate our natural beauty and move away from the constant need for perfection. Let your hair grow out and enjoy the effortless, cool vibe of a lived-in look!
