We love a winter wardrobe as much as anyone (who doesn't love a chunky knit?), but let’s be honest: by March, we are all ready to see the back of the grey skies.
The transition from winter to spring is always the busiest time in the salon because everyone feels the exact same way: “I need a change.”
But you don’t always need a drastic chop to feel like a new person. This season, the trends in Merchant City are all about health, shine, and movement. It’s less about high-maintenance changes and more about that "expensive" healthy hair aesthetic.
Here are the 3 big trends we are seeing in the chair for Spring 2026.
1. The "Glass Hair" Glow-Up
Winter central heating wreaks havoc on hydration. The antidote? The "Glass Hair" trend. This is all about hair that is so healthy and hydrated it reflects light like a mirror.
The Fix: Ask for our Keune Glass Hair Routine (an add-on to your cut) or a full Gloss and Tone service.
Why we love it: It seals the cuticle and restores that "just left the salon" shine without damaging the integrity of your hair. Our Graduate Stylist Katie loves creating these glossy, bouncy looks that give you a massive confidence boost.
2. "Lived-In" Luxury Blonde
Gone are the days of strict 6-week root touch-ups. The "Lived-In" Blonde works with your natural root, not against it. It uses soft balayage blending to create a sun-kissed look that grows out seamlessly.
The Fix: Our Signature Balayage.
Why we love it: It’s low maintenance but high impact. Lyla and Erin are our go-to stylists for this—they specialise in creating those soft, seamless blends that look like you’ve spent a week in Spain, not a rainy Tuesday in Glasgow.
3. The "90s Bounce" & Curtain Bangs
If you want to keep your length but change your vibe, this is the one. We are seeing so many requests for face-framing "curtain bangs" that sweep away from the face, giving you that Cindy Crawford volume.
The Fix: Add Curtain Bangs to your cut or book in for a Big Bouncy Blowdry for the weekend.
Why we love it: It opens up your face and gives instant style without losing your length.
