Redken Celebrity Colorist Tracey Cunningham wants you to help your clients switch up their haircolor for spring and summer—just as they do with their wardrobes and makeup. 

For 2016, Cunningham predicts brunettes will take the leap to blonde, lightened ends will brighten up complexions and rich, all-over color is the answer to all the current highlighting trends.

When thinking about lightened ends, Cunningham cites Chrissy Teigen as a prime example.

"The blending of highlights and balayage together allows Chrissy Teigen to wear her highlights without having to frequently touch up in between appointments and creates a seamless look without an obvious line of demarcation between the roots and the ends," Cunningham says. "Using the new Free Hand Creamy Lightener from Redken's Blonde Idol Professional Haircolor Collection 2.0 creates beautiful, lightened ends that help make her appear brighter without compromising her long locks.
