Beyonce’s highly anticipated “Renaissance” tour has finally kicked off – insert the “praise hands” emoji here – and as we scour TikTok for all the show content, a few things stand out. Besides the obvious FOMO it’s causing, the singer unveiled a new hair color that we predict will dominate summer 2023: “sun-washed hair.”
Created by her longtime colorist, Rita Hazan, this bronde shade is bright and fun – perfect for a statement-making look under the spotlight. “It’s lighter and brighter in certain areas, and it creates a lot of dimension,” Hazan tells InStyle. In short, there are shades of light brown and dark blonde woven throughout the hair, which, according to Hazan, helps the blonde stand out more.
This isn’t the first time Beyonce has experimented with shades of blonde; in fact, she was wearing a deep honey shade before the tour began. Hazan notes that the singer really wanted to make a statement with a new hair color for the occasion.
If you want to recreate this look, good news: it’s easier than getting a ticket to the “Renaissance” tour. Hazan recommends asking your colorist to lighten your base color by two to three shades. Also ask them to customize the placement of the highlights to achieve that dimension, placing them according to the texture and cut of your hair. For maintenance, Hazan suggests using Rita Hazan’s “Sunkissed Gloss” and “Weekly Remedy” to keep the color vibrant between touch-ups.
While we await confirmation on the rumored potential Beyonce hair care line, consider this new shade your summer reference.
