Fresh hair colours you have to try in 2020, inspired by K-celebs

Try these colours if you’re looking for a change

hair colours to try 2020

We’re not sure about you, but earlier this year in January, many of us created goals and resolutions to start off the new decade on the right foot. 2020 turned out to be a terrible year, but we still have three months left.

If you’ve set a goal to switch things up and give your look a glow up, it’s definitely not too late to do so. We’re here to give you the push of encouragement, and also pop in a few colour ideas you’ll love and might just end up using.

Fresh hair colours you have to try in 2020, inspired by K-celebs
Pastel purple
custom

We have to admit, this does require a lot of maintenance. From using a purple shampoo to touching up the colour often, this is definitely not a hair colour for the low-maintenance woman.

That said, Rosé pulled off this colour effortlessly for Blackpink’s new bop. The great thing about this colour is that even when the purple fades, you get a beautiful shade of silver.

Blond highlights
custom

Honestly, can we even do a 2020 list without the most iconic hair colour trend that is chunky blonde highlights? Like any bleached look, this requires maintenance, especially when your roots start showing, but you can also cheat by wearing a large headband like Jennie did.

Copper
custom

If you’ve looking for a colour you can easily achieve with a box dye, it has got to be copper. It’s effortlessly pretty and is usually able to cover any premature grey strands. Caution: Copper has an orange base, so there’s a tendency it might look brassy after a while.

Blue
custom

The great thing about this WFH situation is that you can try different hair colours without worrying it would look terrible. We mean, even if your latest dye job was a flop, you’re spending most of your time indoors anyway, that’s not too bad.

We’re not saying this colour is terrible, but it is definitely not for the faint-hearted. It’s a darker shade of blue, but does require bleaching and possibly even a colour-depositing shampoo. And we have to caution that it might stain your white clothes when the colour transfers from wet hair. But if you want to look like IU, by all means, give it a try. We’d advise you to go to a salon for this instead of a DIY job so you can get an even colour.

Silver with black roots
custom

At one point, “grey hair, don’t care” was a trend. But Cheetah took that trend and made it 2020 by rocking black roots with it. We love that you don’t even have to worry about touching up your roots with this colour!

Bright red
image

As someone who has had red hair for the past few years, I have to admit that this colour is not easy to achieve and maintain. It will fade after two weeks, and you’d have to use colour-depositing shampoo to ensure the red remains fiery. And your white towels will turn pink.

But it’s also a colour that will instantly jazz up your casual outfit and make you look edgy. This is a great choice for someone who wants to embody the passion and boldness that comes with the hue.

Auburn
custom

This reddish-brown tone is one of the most popular shades that many celebrities go for as it fits any skintone and instantly adds an effortless chic vibe.

Here, Vagabond actress Bae Suzy is rocking the auburn hues with her beachy waves and we’re loving how flattering it is on her. Tip: if you’d like the colour to be more subtle, ask your hairstylist to add the dark red tones as highlights instead.

Creamy beige
custom

If this is your first time dyeing your hair and you’re a bit skeptical to go for something bold and bright, try a beige brown shade that’s subtle yet unique, just like Park So Dam did for Record of Youth.

This colour is lighter than the usual brown shades and is perfect for those who’re looking to change up their hair colour but still want it to look somewhat natural.

Bold periwinkle
custom

If you’re looking for some #hairinspo on Instagram, we recommend checking out popular Korean beauty guru Pony (her Instagram handle is @ponysmakeup). From bright pink to ash grey, the girl has been there, done that, when it comes to bold hair colours.

Our favourite look of hers is definitely this bright purple shade that’s sure to catch envying looks everywhere you go. She chopped off her long locks and added some cool girl bangs for this look, so if you’re feeling extra adventurous, this is a good look to cop.

Soft pink
custom

Since Pony is such an icon when it comes to striking hair colours, it’d be a mistake to list only one of her looks here. So, here’s another hair look of hers that we absolutely adore: her baby pink hues. This one is perfect for those gunning for a more feminine and girly vibe.

If you’re looking to recreate this look, ask your hairstylist to go lighter on your roots and let it cascade into a more vivid pink towards the ends.

Colourful babylights
custom

If you’re undecided on whether you should go for pink, blue or blonde, this unique combo should be right up your alley. Probably the quirkiest hair colour of them all, this look fits anyone looking to make a statement with their hair.

This look will have tons of bleaching involved, so do remember to load up with hair oils to nourish your scalp and keep dry ends at bay.

Lavender silver
custom

This is undoubtedly one of the most popular hair colour combinations of all time: lavender and silver. It’s effortlessly classy and goes with any skintone or outfit. Plus, it fades nicely into an ashy light purple after a few months, which is also a look to die for.

If you’re not a fan of purple, you can also opt for an ash grey and silver combo, which we’re pretty sure is just as cute.
