New photo JANUARY BLUES is the hottest hair trend of 2019

If your hair is in need of a refresh for 2019, there's no better way to embrace the icy winter weather than with a vibrant blue rinse, experts say.

It might sound like something out of a Disney movie but stylists insist the latest hair trend beloved by celebrities is both 'accessible and achievable' - and the perfect way to give your locks a refresh for the new year.

Chris Williams, international colour director at Rush Hair, has noted a flock of celebrities trying the pastel shade, from Kylie Jenner to Cardi B, and has tipped it as 'one of hottest hues for 2019'.

Speaking exclusively to FEMAIL, Chris said: 'If we were in any doubt over which colour we'll be seeing most in the year ahead, we only need to look at rainbow-haired celebrities for inspiration.

Kylie Jenner has debuted blue locks this month. Karen Haller, an applied colour psychology practitioner, agrees: 'It certainly takes a certain type of personality to pull of this look; someone who likes to get notice, be seen and stand out from the crowd'

'Lady Gaga rocked a light blue style at the Golden Globes, matching her gown perfectly and showing how versatile the colour is, looking as fabulous on the street as it does the red carpet.

'Kylie Jenner is also known for her "unicorn" locks, but she keeps returning to blue, albeit in different tones and shades, time and time again. She even dyed her hair a bright, light, sky blue on New Year's Eve, choosing the trend to enter 2019.'

Celebrity hairdresser Jason Collier observes: 'It's difficult to pinpoint a key reason as to why blue might be the new shade du jour, but I think it's possibly an outward sign of rebellion. 

'Pastel hair has been big news for the past few years, but always in soft-focus, fairytale shades of pink, rose gold and silvery grey. 

'This turn towards bolder, brighter blue is shaking off those overtly feminine connotations; blue hair is fierce, it's daring and it's a huge statement of confidence and power.

'Blue is a statement of intent in all its various hues; I think that it may be no coincidence that many of the celebrity women spearheading this look are also women who are very well-known for their families, relationships and associations. 

'Many of them are going through life-changing experiences at the moment, like motherhood, new careers or marriage breakdowns. 

'Perhaps opting for blue hair is a way of asserting their own power and independence, doing something that is out of the ordinary to create a statement of confidence and self-belief.' 

How do dye your hair blue at home

'If you're thinking of taking the "January Blues" style quite literally, there are a number of ways to incorporate the colour into your look,' says Chris Williams, international colour director at Rush Hair. 

'A darker, indigo "denim" shade looks fantastic, or alternatively you can go for lighter sky and icy blues.

'Blue works best on cooler skin tones, so I'd recommend people with warmer or tanned skin tones should think twice. It's essentially an overly toned platinum blonde shade, so if you wouldn't go for that, then don't go for blue.

'There are a few different ways to achieve the sky blue style. If you have naturally pale blonde hair, an intense blue will be really achievable, and then let it fade into the perfect tone over time.

'Bear in mind that vivid blue hair won't last very long without proper upkeep. To keep your blue colour bright, I'd definitely recommend visiting the salon regularly for additional colour appointments, combined with using toner in your conditioner at home to top it up as and when it's needed.

'If you are using bleach then keeping your hair in good condition is key. At Rush, we use Smartbond by L'Oréal Professionnel on all of our colour services, which strengthens the hair during treatment. Always use quality brands, professional silver shampoos and conditioners and if in doubt, speak to your Rush stylist to keep your hair feeling fabulous.

'Blue hair can look beautiful but it's definitely a bold look. If you're unsure or it's your first foray into a more unusual colour, go for a balayage treatment to lighten the ends of your hair and try out colour options this way first, before taking the plunge!'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
