Summer is well underway, and no matter how you’re spending it – enjoying your newly-found freedom or taking time out for yourself during lockdown – you’re still thinking ahead. Summer will be drawing to a close in just a matter of weeks, and the end of a season is a better time than any to change up your hair game.
Though your hair loves to be pampered, it’s also important to express your personality through your hair. Like fashion and makeup, hair is another way of injecting a bit of your fun and experimental side into your appearance.
The evenings will be darker, you’ll be preparing for Halloween, getting excited about Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice latte… but that doesn’t mean you have to opt for drab shades. Go for bold, vivacious, sultry, sassy… Express yourself this fall!
1. Ash Blonde
As indicated by allthingshair.com, Ash Blonde is back, and better than ever! Think Kim K or Cara Delevingne – blonde with grey/silver undertones. It varies in its lightness – you can go super light, or opt for a medium or dark ash blonde according to your preferences. You can opt for strikingly dark roots or choose a more subtle and sophisticated look. Or, choose an ombré ash blonde for a feminine and youthful approach. These tones will compliment your winter wardrobe beautifully, and will always look edgy.
2. Dramatic Roots
We all love darker roots, but what if it was even more dramatic? Jet black roots leading into lighter locks is the way to go this fall! It’s the perfect way to get away with no touching up your dye job all whilst looking stylish – so if lockdown has prevented you from getting your hair done, think again! We love chunky highlights to add a bit of edge, especially on poker straight hair!
We are seriously inspired by Dua Lipa and Hailey Bieber. Their look is exaggerated, sassy, and edgy. We love dark roots slicked back for a red carpet-inspired look. It can look modern for sportier styles and elegant with a Parisian-style outfit. This is a hair color that everyone can rock!
3. Lilac Locks
If you’re willing to take the plunge, go for a crazy, bright shade! Feminine yet bold, lilac hair has to be your next shade! It has been on-trend for a few years, so if you still haven’t had a chance to dare the pastel shade, now is the time to try it. Though lighter colors are more high maintenance, treat your hair to a soothing and hydrating mask, and top up on purple shampoo to banish brassy tones. Your hair will be looking salon-fresh for weeks!
4. Dare Dip Dye
If dying your whole head a bold shade is a daunting prospect, then take a leaf out of Demi Lovato and Billie Eilish’s book, and opt for dip dye ends. As well as being easier to maintain, it injects a little bit of fun all whilst being subtle. Curve the ends with a curling wand to give your hair a bit of oomph!
5. Elegant Brown
Somehow, you can never go wrong with brown. It’s classy and timeless. Rich chocolate brown will compliment your skin even in the chilliest temperatures. It looks luscious in a bob or in long, flowing Hollywood locks. A more natural tone isn’t boring, in fact, it can still totally change up your look. If you want to add more texture, opt for lighter highlights in your chocolate brown locks, caramel highlights will help you add more shine and luxury to your hair and will warm up the look.
6. Natural Red Head
You may not be a natural redhead, but who is to know? Opt for soft ginger tones for a sophisticated look. You’ll feel like a siren with curled ginger hair, the natural auburn shade will flatter various skin tones and make your skin-pop, and if you have green eyes, all the more! We love burgundy and prune tones but nothing quite beats a natural and subtle looking hair color, and your mane will thank you for choosing a softer tone! It still packs a punch all whilst remaining timeless and chic. If you don’t want to dye all your hair, then opt for a soft red balayage like Jessica Biel, you’ll soon feel glamorous and feminine! Redhead is making its comeback, and it’s here to stay!
7. Dark Side
Embrace your dark side with jet black hair. Think Dita Von Teese’s chic and retro look – this can still be rocked on an everyday basis with a cat-eye and a subtle lip. Opt for cool undertones such as blues and prunes to add a subtle touch of color. We are crazy about cinnamon highlights for a bit more depth. If you’re willing to transform your hair, going for such a dramatic look will be the bold move you need to make in fall 2024. Make sure you are sure about making such a big change to your hair, as it saturates your hair, and there’s no going back!
8. Legally Bronde
Can’t make up your mind between blonde and brunette? Look no further, bronde will be your go-to shade. It was the most talked-about hair color of 2019, and it’s back for another year. Jessica Alba and Karlie Kloss are just some of the celebrities who rocked the blonde-brunette mix. Subtly-dark roots flowing into light blonde locks in an ombré-like effect will look glamorous when you leave your hair down or even slick it back into a high ponytail. Adds highlights for an extra bit of shine! They add dimension and texture, and your hair will always look fresh out of the salon!
9. Make It Colorful
Bright colors are for the daring, confident, and stylish. If you want to totally revolutionize your look, then you will fall in love with a mermaid pastel green tone for your hair, or electric blue for Kylie Jenner’s vibes. Bold shades are in and it’s time to experiment! Bring out your personality with hot pink or rose gold, whatever your favorite color is, add it to your hair! Untraditional and unconventional are the key words this season.
