With the amount of chrome-like liquid lipsticks, highlighting sticks,
and eyeshadow palettes that launched this year, it’s safe to say that
people are downright obsessed with all things metallic. The
light-reflective trend is far from over, though. It just moved on to hair color, and we’re shocked to say that metallic highlights might be one of the prettiest beauty trends we’ve seen in months.

"Balayaging your hair with metallic shades like rose
gold or silver creates that same sunlit look, using a more sophisticated
hair color palette," explained Matrix celebrity stylist George Papanikolas
in a statement about the trend. "You can add metallic balayage
highlights to a conventional-toned base or incorporate them into an
all-over metallic hair color effect." Papanikolas achieves this using
the Matrix Mixed Metals shades across the SOCOLOR and Color Sync Watercolors collections.

It's already a hit on Instagram, too. Some of the
looks we've caught sight of are icy blondes with silver highlights and
barely-there hints of rose gold. If going pastel or platinum is
absolutely terrifying to you, consider this your first baby step towards
mastering the always-popular spring trend.
Pair it with a rose-gold eyeshadow and you're set.
