Wheat blonde is the hair colour trend of summer 2026

Wheat blonde — a medium or light shade blending gold, beige and subtle honey tones — is set to be the dominant hair colour trend for summer 2026. It is warmer than ashy blonde but calmer than intense golden colourations. The best results come from a darker root with beige mid-lengths and lighter highlights around the face, giving hair a natural, sun-kissed depth.
