Hair Salon Talk: Fall Hair Colors

It’s no secret that the fall inspires moodier, enthusiastic, luscious,  and vibrant shades of hair colors. Hair colorists have been giving their predictions about this year’s most popular fall hair colors.

Cream Soda Hair

The fall’s hottest and most popular hair color trend is none other than creamy blonde hair created with creamy beige color. This hue gives the blonde hair a warm buttery tone, making the blonde appear natural. For first-timers, baby highlights are recommended.

Espresso Hair Painting

The tradition of hair painting will be kept on fire with this cozy fall hair color trend – hot-n-spicy espresso highlights.  A freehand application of rich espresso as the base color and chocolate and caramel as lowlights is a perfect technique to add balance to the hair. Unlike the foiled hair painting, freehand application of highlights is best left to experienced hair colorists.

Strobing for Curly Hair

This hair color trend is inspired by the strobing trend in makeup. Hair colorists are all set to trick the eyes and create movement in the hair by applying dark, medium and light color to the hair.  Previously, coloring for curly hair had been done by first straightening the client’s hair and then add the hair colors, but now a majority will be seen creating magic by applying the color while the hair is in its natural state.

Flamboyant Colors

Bold unnatural colors have their charm, yet they need to be matched to the natural hair color. Nothing is more sultry than the deep shades of green and blue like that of ‘midnight edge’ that is recommended for the dark hair. A striking shade of red and orange color is suitable for lighter hair. It is impossible for some people to go with a full head of bold hair color.  For those women, it is suggested to have a peekaboo hair color application.  This technique only gives them hints of red, orange, blue, green.   Or opt for semi-permanent colors such as ‘Redken city beats’ that wash out in approximately twelve shampoos.

The hair colors for Fall 2017 are going to be much hotter than anyone could have thought!  Try something bold this fall – add a splash of color to that hair.  Contact Clayton Hair Salon at 919-795-6742 to schedule an appointment today.
