If you’re looking for the latest in hairspiration and you’re a fan of the eternally stylish balayage, look no further than brush-lights. It’s the colouring trend set to take hairdressers by storm because it’s so quick to do, ridiculously easy to maintain and it looks completely natural.

Ozden Kurtur and Emrah Demirci are the Insta-famous hairdressers behind this pretty style, and their innovative techniques have been gaining traction on social media over the past year.
