Stephen Aiken Colour

Went from tired grown-out brown to this muted pink Megan-inspired look and I’m honestly obsessed 🤍 The dusty rose tone feels soft, smoky, and polished without being too bright — exactly that effortless K-pop/editorial vibe.

After a really great few months, I’m grateful to be heading to Dublin this April as a finalist for Irish Colour Technician of the Year. Wishing the very best of luck to all the other talented competitors 🤍

PANTONE 2026: Cloud Dancer

An ethereal white that captures calm in a fast-moving world. Cloud Dancer is soft, weightless and quietly powerful — a reminder that stillness can be the strongest statement.

What an incredible day yesterday at WELLA TRENDVISION !
This competition holds such a special place in my heart. Throughout my 20 years in the hairdressing industry, TrendVision has been right there with me — from years of nonstop entries to proudly taking home two silvers and a gold.

Now, getting to return as a judge for the UK Editorial Finalists feels like a full-circle moment. The level of emerging talent across the UK and Ireland absolutely blew me away — the creativity, skill, and dedication were on another level.

To everyone who competed: even if you didn’t win this time, keep going. I’ve been there myself — I know the sweat, passion, and perseverance it takes. Every attempt brings you closer. 💪

And can we talk about the show teams this year? Just WOW.
Plus, the Natural History Museum lit up in red for the event was simply breathtaking.

Huge thank you to for having me — I’m so proud to be part of the Wella family.
And to all the amazing new hair friends I met — so grateful for the connections and inspiration. ❤️
