The beauty of classic haircuts and anti-trend hair colours is that they stick around for one good reason—they always look good. Sure, there’s a time and a place for a trending tonal moment (hello, cherry cola) and more experimental techniques like this season’s soft colour melting, but certain colour combinations are timeless.
