A long-standing fixture in the TRNSMT backstage setup since the festival's inception, Scotland's largest salon group, the award-winning Rainbow Room International, returned once again to the Artists' Village, bringing with them their signature blend of technical skill, creative vision, and forward-thinking style. Their backstage pop-up salon, situated beside the performers' dressing rooms, remained a constant hub of energy throughout the weekend, supporting not just artists but their bands, management, and wider crews. The team delivered expert cuts and styling to withstand the summer heat and humid temperatures, all while setting the tone for festival hair trends right at the peak of the 2025 festival season. With Oasis-inspired cuts trending in tandem with the band's current tour, the stylists saw a rise in requests for textured crops, mod shapes, disconnected fringes, and hair that was full of lived-in, natural movement. Representing Ayr was Salon Director Riccardo Corvi, who joined forces with directors from across the group to deliver on-trend festival styles. Riccardo commented: "It's always great to be part of TRNSMT and to bring a bit of that festival energy back to Ayr. This year, we saw a lot of Oasis-inspired styles like textured crops and mod shapes making a comeback. "It's exciting to translate those looks into something our clients can enjoy back at the salon." Rainbow Room International's backstage work isn't just about styling stars, it's also about nurturing talent. The team included emerging stylists from across the network, giving them invaluable experience working behind the scenes in a high-pressure, creative environment. Now, those cutting-edge festival trends are making their way back to Rainbow Room International Ayr, so clients can book in and capture a little TRNSMT magic for themselves.
