With brilliant rainbow shades making a splash in the hairstyling universe this season, the latest hair colour trend fits into Spring 2016’s colour scheme perfectly. Staying true to the vivid spirit of spring, rainbow roots are now officially causing a sensation on social media.

The colour can be applied to the roots of the hair using a hair painting method, with bright bursts of magenta or blue offering a pop of rainbow inspiration. For a contrasting effect, beauty lovers are pairing the brightly coloured roots with platinum blonde tresses.

While rainbow roots may not be an effective choice for the corporate atmosphere, they can certainly breathe new life into a creative hair statement. Whether you’re heading to a music festival this season or hitting up the party circuit in your hometown, rainbow-hued roots can easily revitalize your locks.

Although glittery roots and unicorn inspired strands caused a sensation in the beauty world this past season, it looks like rainbow roots just may be the latest way to update your tresses. For beauty mavens who are contemplating a coveted hair change, here’s a closer look at this rising trend.
