“As we’re moving into warmer weather, people are chopping their locks and staying square,” says superstar stylist, and I don’t mean that in a nerdy way, either! Ladies are going shorter, but keeping a nice balance of weight and movement.”

TREND #2: WAVES FROM BRAIDS

“This is one of my favorite looks and it’s so simple,” raves Amber of a wavy-haired style that’s created with classic braiding. “After washing your hair at night, towel- dry really well. Then apply a little Defy Damage Protective Shield and put a few loose braids in your hair.”
(Pro Tip: keep ‘em loose, as tight braids take longer to dry and producer a tighter, less natural curl). “Allow your braids to dry as you sleep and in the morning, after you take your braids out, tackle any wayward pieces with a curling iron. This is a great way to have that lived-in, tousled wave look without styling damage,” says Amber.
TREND #3: SUPER-GLOSSY HAIR

We’re not talking about the kind you get by adding all sorts of shiny, reflecting sprays and oils…but the kind you get from having genuinely healthy hair, which imparts a glorious luminosity. “With Joico’s new Defy Damage Protective Shampoo, Conditioner, and Masque, the natural shine happens all on its own,” explains Amber. The products contain deeply-penetrating ingredients – Arginine, Moringa Seed Oil, and a Protective Lipid, which teams up with Joico’s SmartRelease Technology; a one-of-a-kind liposome delivery system that continuously releases powerful Rose Hip Oil, Arginine, and Keratin. “They’re so incredibly hydrating and healing, that I find no other styling aids are needed. It’s incredible to see a client’s hair transform from dull, dry, and over-processed, to shiny, healthy, and sealed!”
TREND #4: WARMER HAIR COLOR
“It’s not just gold and caramel anymore,” says celebrity colorist, Jill Buck, who’s using Joico’s new NW series to achieve a beautiful, subtle glow of opals and nudes. “These shades are coming your way and I couldn’t be more excited…they’re wearable for any age and are so beautiful.”
