Out with the flip-flops and sun hats on the beach, and in with layered sweaters and leaf-lined walks through the park. With any new season, you don’t just purge your outfits, but you’re given a fresh opportunity to upgrade your summer locks to autumn-inspired cuts and colors.
While the peak of fall feels shorter than the sunshine-filled months, the hues and types of hair trends during this time of year are richer, more vibrant and more enduring. No matter what length and shade you’re inspired by, make sure to head to the salon and request one of these fall hair trends, recommended by top colorists and stylists.
1. Warm Blonde Hues
If you’re part of the blonde club, you’re probably hesitant to ever leave it. Even though you’ll have fun no matter what color your hair is, you have full permission from hair colorist Christina Culinski to maintain those light-colored locks all year long. But instead of rocking your platinum look, Culinski suggests going for a slightly warmer tint to create a golden glow, instead of a nearly white wash-out. “Ask your colorist to freshen up your summer blonde with a deep conditioning treatment. I love anything with coconut added in because it smells amazing and leaves your hair silky,” she suggests. “Then, you’ll want a rich golden toner to enhance your highlights, while adding dimension.”
2. Longer Locks
Stylist at L’Appartement Hair Boudoir in New York, Tina Malhotra, says instead of chopping off several inches, more and more women will be gravitating towards longer hair this autumn. “Many of my clients were on trend with getting a lob last year and are now in the ‘growing out’ stage, ready to embrace their long locks once again for fall,” she explains. Forget the tight curls, though. Malhotra predicts more women will wear their hair smooth and sleek, thanks to darker mornings that will entice them to sleep in instead of spending their time with a curling iron. “Since we’re not sweating quite as much, we wash our hair less often. When you wear it straight, you can stretch your style an extra few days,” she adds.
