Seasons change, and with them, so do hair color trends. Your bleach blonde locks might have been fashionable on the beach this summer, but apple-picking and sweater weather require an updated look.

This fall, you can ask your stylist and your barista for the same order. The new color trend uses a dark mahogany base with various blonde hilites throughout to achieve a look that mimics a cup of coffee with a dash of cream.

In the last few years, we’ve seen an emergence of bold, funky colors go from the runway to the real world. Pastels are a hot option for festival season, but darker hues will be more prominent as we transition into fall and winter. Are you brave enough to rock this trend? Go for a sapphire blue or a rich violet and you’ll be sure to turn heads.
Reds

With the changing leaves, brilliant reds briefly pop up in fall foliage around the world, so red is a naturally popular hair color choice. Whether it’s a more natural ginger or a bold crimson, chances are you’ll be seeing a lot of redheads this season. Going red has long been a favored option in fall, but this year stylists are encouraging clients to go Flannel, a combination of copper, auburn, mulberry and deep-red shades inspired by everyone’s favorite autumn clothing staple.

Celebs like Lauren Conrad and Emilia Clarke are sporting the updated ombre this fall for a refreshing break from the dark shades traditionally embraced in the cooler season. Aptly dubbed “Toasted Coconut,” this trend features a deep brunette at the roots that gradually blends into light-colored ends. For those with darker roots, Toasted Coconut looks great even as it grows out and is the perfect low-maintenance color option.

Not ready to take the plunge for a new color? Lucky for you, the natural look is in. You can still stand out without the use of a dramatic color change by making sure your hair is healthy and shiny. If your tresses are a bit on the damaged side, try an Olaplex treatment to bring them back to life.
