Copper Highlights: If you’re unsure of going full copper or red, why not add some warmth to your natural color with copper / red highlights that catch the light beautifully.
Autumnal Balayage: Not a fan of highlights? Why not try some subtle ribbons of colour through the mid lengths and ends of your hair. Or if you already have a balayage you can add pops of colour to add richness and an autumnal glow to your existing colour.
Full Head Colour: For a bold change, go for a full head colour! Root to tip of rich copper or auburn tones. Be sure to consult with your stylist to find the perfect shade for your skin tone, whether it’s a strawberry blonde, cowboy copper, or a cherry brown we can formulate a tone that’s right for you.
Autumn Hair For Blondes
Blondes aren’t left out of the autumn trend! This season, blondes can choose to embrace warmer tones or go super icy! Opting to tone down their bright summer hues with a seasonal refresh that’s right on trend. Here’s how to transition your blonde for autumn:
Low Lights & Lived In Looks: Add depth to your existing blonde and tone it down for autumn by adding lowlights through your hair. This is a great way to break up your bright summer blonde and introduce depth and richness. Add more depth at the root with a soft blend toner to blend seamlessly with your natural hair colour. Whether you prefer warmer or cooler tones, this is a great way to transition into an autumn/winter look.
Added Warmth: Change up the tone of your hair by trying out a warmer toner, whether it’s a soft buttery blonde or a hint of apricot, a toner can be a great way to add warmth to your existing blonde hair. This will give your blonde a warm, radiant glow that’s perfect for fall. Toners are also temporary and will fade away over time so this is a great way for blondes to try a hint of copper without the commitment!
Keep It Cool: Prefer a cooler look? Why not transition to an ash blonde for a chic, icy tone. This cool shade works well for a more muted autumnal look. Incorporate a hint of silver into your platinum blonde for a sleek, modern edge. This adds a subtle shimmer that still feels crisp and fresh.
