Candy cane hair is the stunning trend that you're going to want this Christmas (and has us booking an appointment at the salon ASAP).

After all, even the name sounds delicious. Every few months, it feels like there is a new hair trend emerging on social media that makes us want to switch things up ASAP. This year, we've seen antique gold hair, gingerbread caramel hair, sombre hair  and wine hair, just to name a few. And while candy cane hair has us ready to call our hairdresser, we will admit it: it looks pretty tricky to maintain. It appears as if there are a number of ways to pull off the style, if you're looking of switching things up this holiday season. One version involves vibrant red streaks spaced throughout a white-blonde 'do; while some people used pink and lilac colours in place of the red and white. Suppose it depends on what kind of candy cane you're taking inspiration from. Another way (which seems a little easier to maintain) involves having the top layer of your hair bright red, with a white-blonde or silvery underlayer. Basically, what we're trying to say is that there's just as many ways to pull off the candy cane hair trend as there are flavours of candy canes. If you're looking for more hair inspiration (whether for future ideas or if you're planning on switching things up soon), check out the 'peach cobbler' hair trend - which is legit making us want to dye our hair red right now.
