So, ladies, if you’re the experimental kind and want a mane makeover this year, you’re in the right place. Here are 10 of the hottest hair colour ideas of 2017 – take your pick and up your style quotient like never before!
1. The Dirty Blonde

While a typical blonde hair colour would be a pale yellow, combining it with a dirty shade as a brown makes for a wonderful dirty blonde shade like Esha Gupta’s hair streaks here. If you want to go light but not too OTT, this is the colour for you, ladies. It will look trendy and oh-so-chic!
2. A Sobre Ombre = Sombre

Till recently, we saw a number of ombre looks that showed a huge contrast between the upper and lower part of the hair. And in 2017, we welcome the sobre ombre or sombre, with open arms. It looks subtle and stylish, and has quite a natural feel at the same time. We love the look, ladies. How about you?
3. Caramel Charisma

Going for caramel highlights is sure to lend a very chic vibe to your look. And, ladies, contrary to popular belief, no matter what your original hair colour, it will accept a pop of caramel and actually end up looking stunning. Try that caramel hue this year, we say.
4. Balayage Bounce

The balayage technique, wherein a colour lighter than your base colour is applied free-hand onto the hair, has been popular and continues to be quite the trend in 2017. And why not – it gives a soft and natural finish to the hair, and looks fabulous no matter what shade you go for.
5. Call It Crimson
An oldie, but goody! Going for red hair colour or just some streaks of the shade has always looked stylish and continues to be one of the hottest hair colours this year too. Go the red way, and look super elegant and glamorous, ladies.
6. Grey And Gorgeous
