Cherry Cola Red Hair

Cherry Cola Red is one of the standout hair colour trends for Spring 2026. This rich shade blends deep brunette tones with warm red undertones to create a glossy, dimensional finish that looks vibrant in both natural light and salon lighting.

The colour works beautifully on medium to dark hair bases and is perfect for clients who want to add warmth and depth without going fully red.

Colour Formula

To achieve this look, combine rich brunette tones with red undertones to create depth and shine.

Roots

Leyton House Couture Silk Hair Dye

• 5.0 – Light Brown

• 5.6 – Light Red Brown

• 4.0 – Medium Brown

Mid Lengths & Ends

Leyton House Couture Silk Hair Dye

• 6.6 – Dark Red Blonde

• 6.45 – Dark Red Blonde

• 5.6 – Light Red Brown

Application Tips

For the best results, apply the colour to the mid-lengths and ends first, then work towards the roots to create an even, dimensional finish. Allow the colour to process for 30–45 minutes, depending on the desired intensity.

Maintenance

To keep this colour looking vibrant, use a colour-safe shampoo and conditioner, and consider using a weekly colour-depositing treatment to maintain the richness of the red tones. Professional ranges such as L'Oréal Professionnel Vitamino Colour or Wella Professionals Colour Motion+ are excellent options for protecting colour, boosting shine, and helping red tones stay fresh between salon visits.

Butter Blonde: The Creamy Blonde Trend ✨

Butter Blonde is one of the most requested blonde shades right now. It’s a soft, creamy blonde that sits between cool platinum and warm golden tones, creating a bright yet natural look. The colour features slightly deeper roots that melt into glossy, pale blonde lengths for a smooth, dimensional finish.

This look was created using L'Oréal Professionnel products and the formula shared by colourist Tiffany Matteo Capelli.

Colour Formula

Roots: L'Oréal Professionnel Dia Light 9

Ends: ½ L'Oréal Professionnel Dia Light 10.02 + ½ L'Oréal Professionnel Dia Light Clear with 9 vol developer

Application Tips

Lift the hair to a level 9–10 pale yellow before toning for the best creamy result. Keep the root slightly deeper to create a natural blend and dimension.

Haircare Tips

Maintain butter blonde with a purple or blonde shampoo, regular hydrating masks, and heat protection when styling to keep the colour glossy and brass-free. Products such as L'Oréal Professionnel Vitamino Colour, L'Oréal Metal Detox, or OSMO Super Silver are great options for keeping blonde tones bright and healthy.
