A Style Switch for the Season

How to transition your hair into spring with TRIM NuLu



It’s that time of year when, once you wake up, you’re not totally sure if you’ll need to wear a coat today or not! Temperatures are rising, the sun is shining more often and all signs point to spring quickly approaching. With the seasons shifting, it may be time to shift your style as well. Freshening up your hairstyle for warmer months can be a fun idea but sometimes seem a bit overwhelming. Where to start? What to think about? Fortunately, Chris Edwards, co-founder and lead stylist, and Brianne Windell, lead colorist of TRIM NuLu, are here to give advice and insight on how to create some head-turning spring styles. 



“When considering your spring look, it’s essential to think about how you want your hair to reflect the change in seasons,” Windell shares. “Do you want a lighter, brighter look to match the sunny days ahead, or are you looking for a subtle change that still feels fresh and modern? Consider your personal style, fashion preferences and any trends that inspire you. Your hairstyle is an extension of your personality, so choose something that makes you feel confident and ready to embrace the new season.”


In any styling process, individuality and personality are paramount, so starting there will help set a solid foundation to build upon. From there, Windell explains that such factors as the state of hair, coloring and upkeep are all important to take into account early in the process. “Start by assessing your current hair condition and determining if any treatments or repairs are needed before making a change” she maintains. “Consider your skin tone and undertones to ensure that the chosen hair color complements your complexion. Lifestyle factors such as maintenance preferences and the amount of time you’re willing to dedicate to styling and upkeep should also be taken into account. Additionally, think about any upcoming events or occasions that may influence your decision, such as weddings, vacations, or professional commitments.”



Before moving the fun stuff of style, the general health of your hair after the dry winter months is first on the list. “Consider scheduling a deep conditioning treatment to replenish moisture and nourish dry, damaged strands,” Edwards advises. “Trimming split ends can help prevent further breakage and promote healthy growth. Switching to hydrating hair care products formulated for your hair type can also make a significant difference in restoring shine and manageability. Our team at TRIM NuLu can recommend personalized maintenance routines and products to keep your hair looking its best as you transition into spring.”



Once the health of the hair is cleared, most clients’ central element they’re thinking about is, of course, color. Windell affirms that selecting a shade should be informed by a multitude of other facets of you; natural hair color, eye color and skin tone all play a part in the process. 


“Warm-toned individuals may opt for honey blondes, caramel highlights or rich copper tones to add warmth and dimension to their hair,” she explains. “Cooler-toned individuals may prefer ash blondes, cool browns or pastel shades like lavender or rose gold for a fresh and modern look. Consulting with a professional hairstylist at TRIM NuLu can help you determine the best color options based on your unique features and preferences.”



In addition to color, many like to switch up the length in the warmer months, going with a lighter and more effortless style. “Many people choose to refresh their look by opting for shorter cuts or adding layers to create movement and texture,” Edwards says. “Shorter hairstyles like bobs, pixie cuts or layered shags can feel liberating and chic, while longer lengths may be trimmed for a more polished appearance.”


If all this sounds daunting, fear not! The team at TRIM is prepared to help transition you into the new season, resetting you with a style that will give you not only a renewed aesthetic but also renewed confidence. 


“Our team of expert hairstylists is here to provide personalized consultations and guidance every step of the way,” Edwards relates. “From discussing your hair goals and preferences to recommending the perfect color and style options for you, we’re dedicated to helping you achieve your desired look with confidence. Whether you’re seeking a subtle refresh or a dramatic transformation, we’ll work closely with you to bring your vision to life. Schedule a consultation with us at TRIM NuLu today and let us help you embrace the beauty of every season!”



Hot Colors & Cuts for 2024

While trends can vary from season to season and are influenced by factors such as fashion, celebrity styles and cultural movements, there are some hair color and cut trends that have been popular recently. Here are a few trends to keep an eye on.


Soft Balayage and Babylights

Soft, natural-looking highlights created through techniques like balayage and babylights continue to be popular choices for adding dimension and brightness to the hair. These techniques create a sun-kissed effect that complements various hair lengths and textures.


Rich, Warm Tones

Warm, rich hair colors such as caramel, honey and copper are expected to remain popular in 2024. These shades add warmth and depth to the hair, creating a flattering and vibrant look.


Face-Framing Highlights

Face-framing highlights, which focus on highlighting the hair around the face, can help brighten the complexion and accentuate facial features. This trend is versatile and can be customized to suit different hair colors and lengths.


Textured Bob and Lob Haircuts

Textured bob and lob (long bob) haircuts are versatile and chic options for 2024. These cuts can be tailored to suit individual preferences, with options for tousled waves, blunt ends or choppy layers to add movement and volume.


Curly and Natural Hair

Embracing natural texture continues to be a prominent trend, with curly and coily hair being celebrated for its beauty and versatility. Styles that enhance and define natural curls and waves, such as twist-outs, braid-out, and wash-and-go styles, are expected to remain popular.


Blunt Cuts and Bold Bangs

For those who prefer a more structured look, blunt haircuts with clean lines and bold bangs can make a statement in 2024. These styles offer a modern and edgy aesthetic that can be customized to suit different face shapes and hair textures.
