Blorange: The Iconic Winter Hair Color Trend

Autumn's mauve-chocolate hair trend blended subtle purple and chestnut tones beautifully, but winter calls for warmer hues with blorange. This striking shade—a fusion of 'blond' and 'orange'—was pioneered by renowned colorist Alex Brownsell at Bleach London salon in Dalston, northeast London. Brownsell drew inspiration from model Georgia May Jagger, daughter of Mick Jagger, and the vibrant result she shared on Instagram captivated hair enthusiasts worldwide.

A Faded David Bowie-Inspired Orange

Pastel tones suit winter's moody vibe, while the orange undertone injects fresh energy hinting at spring. To recreate blorange at home, start with a vivid David Bowie-style orange base, then fade it deliberately: first with a red-leaning shade, followed by a yellow-leaning one for that perfect washed-out effect. Note that orange is notoriously stubborn to remove, but blorange thrives on this fade, embracing shampoos and time. For best results and hair health, consult a professional colorist unless you're experienced in bold dyes.
