1. The colors of Fall leaves

We are seeing colors in the shades of fall leaves this year, from clothing to hair to makeup. Think gold, copper, and bronze and also think of different ways to incorporate them into your hair.  Using warmer, deeper tones closer to skin and root and then mostly feathering out lighter tones to the ends is a great approach for your stylist to try. Keep them under your top layer of hair so as not to be mistaken with color blocking (that was the rage 8 years ago!). This modern twist is softer and elegant.

2. Glaze it over

When coloring for your fall look, ask to be glazed over to lock down warm tones. They can fade fast, so not only will a glaze postpone that eventuality, but it will add a healthier, shiny look over summer-stressed hair.

3. Learn a few tricks

Last but not least, always ask for a lesson in styling to maximize your color placement. You won't see the tones if they're not in movement with the cut.

Happy fall! Let's play in those leaves!
