The “Scandi hairline” is emerging as this summer’s most flattering hair color trend. This clever technique illuminates your features by softly lightening the baby hairs along the forehead and hairline.
To get the effortless “Scandi” look, hairstylists use a fine comb to gently highlight the wispy hairs framing the face. The hairline is lightened just a shade or two lighter than your base for a subtle, sun-kissed effect.
Concentrating soft highlights at the roots creates a brightening halo effect. It helps hair blend seamlessly while making features pop. The goal is emulating naturally lightened hair, not dramatic contrast.
The Scandi hairline works beautifully with updos and down styles alike. It creates a soft, blurred edge that appears to grow out seamlessly. The technique requires less maintenance than traditional highlighting.
When trying this trend, opt for hues that complement your natural tone. And take care not to over-process the delicate baby hairs. With a light touch, the Scandi hairline can become your go-to for summer luminosity.
