Every season comes with an itch to switch things up, and one of the first changes that come to mind is our hair color. With the warmer months comes the tendency to go for a lighter, brighter, sun-kissed hue. While fall and winter have us asking our stylists for richer, darker hues. Fall is a time of year that embodies transition. The autumn leaves match some of our best hair color trends of the season, ranging in shades from deep auburn, chocolate brown to rich honey blondes, and icy-toned highlights.
The 90s Frame
A good face frame is always a brighter shade than the rest of your hair, but it doesn’t necessarily need to be warmer. A pop of color, or blonde is a fitting contrast for this cool hued brunette.
Red
This reddish-brown hair color looks great on every skin tone and requires minimal touch-ups.
Berry
We are swooning over this rich burgundy for Fall knowing all the ways there are to play off accessorizing with this color, even just with a punch of berry lip color.
Rich Brown
A rich, dark chocolate brown is always a frequent go-to at this time of year. The key to giving it that velvety dimension is incorporating highlights and lowlights of the same shade with subtle variations.

Overgrown Highlights
Overgrown highlights have never been so in-style as they are post-quarantine. Were looking for “hair color that can withstand a long break from the salon and still look good.” These roots don’t bother us one bit.
Russet Brown
A highlighted Auburn transitions into a Russet brown shade, like this one seen here. Starting with Auburn and ending in Russet sounds like a seasonal hair color plan of perfection.

Buttery Blonde
If you have lighter hair and are committed to keeping your blonde intact, try turning the warmth up a notch this season. Adding more golden tones will add a rich, buttery look to your strands.
Caramel Hues
Swirls of rich caramel can in fact make their way into low maintenance, the dimensional color palette for your locks. When warm hues drip down this effortlessly, they grow out effortlessly and are therefore easy to uphold through the long winter ahead.
