With multicolor dye jobs taking over Instagram feeds, spotting one all-over color is unusual. It’s like seeing a racehorse in a field of unicorns. Nonetheless, neon peach hair is glowing up on Instagram. And when I say glowing, I mean that literally.
The fluorescent orange look went viral last summer when Jessica Jewel, a Los Angeles–based hairstylist, custom mixed a neon peach color that was so bright I felt like I needed sunglasses so I could stare at it forever. (You can find more about Jewel in a recent edition of my column Five on Five.) A single picture of the vivid hair color was liked more 20,000 times on Instagram in just a couple days, and a video of the color process in action has been watched almost 90,000 times. With summer just around the corner, neon peach is poised to be the most popular hair-color trend of the season once again.
What separates the incredibly vibrant look from other peach hair trends is Pulp Riot’s popular Neon Electric dye collection. Jewel combined a hot pink called Candy and an electric orange dubbed Lava to create the color. To get super-specific, she mixed together four parts Candy and one part Lava. When brushed all over her client’s pre-lightened hair and washed out with cold water, it looked like this:
You can see the viral coloring process video below.
Pulp Riot is only sold to professionals, so you’ll have to make an appointment at a salon that stocks the Neon Electric collection to get in on this neon peach fantasy. Be sure to show your stylist some inspo images like these:
