| FALL HAIR COLOR TRENDS YOU’LL ACTUALLY WEAR |
| Fall color doesn’t have to mean a dramatic change. This season, we’re seeing clients in Chicago gravitate toward richer tones, subtle dimension, and color that looks polished without demanding constant maintenance. |
| Whether you’re ready to deepen your brunette, warm up your blonde, or simply add more shine, these are four fall color directions worth considering. |
|
 |
 |
RICH CHOCOLATE
BRUNETTE |
|
| Deep chocolate and espresso tones bring warmth and dimension to brunette hair without looking overly dark. |
| The key is keeping the color dimensional rather than flat, with subtle variations that catch the light and make the hair look glossy and healthy. |
|
|
 |
 |
WARM, DIMENSIONAL
BLONDE |
|
| Fall blondes are moving toward warmer, softer tones rather than extremely icy finishes. |
| Think honey, beige, caramel, and creamy blonde tones that add warmth while maintaining a sophisticated look. |
| For blondes, Olaplex No.4P Blonde Enhancer Toning Shampoo helps neutralize unwanted yellow and brassy tones while keeping blonde color looking brighter and more refreshed between salon visits. |
|
|
 |
 |
SOFT COPPER &
AUBURN |
|
| Copper doesn’t have to be bright or dramatic. Soft auburn, cinnamon, and muted copper tones offer a more wearable way to experiment with red for fall. |
| These shades look especially beautiful with natural dimension and a glossy finish. |
| Protect your color with Olaplex No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner which helps maintain stronger, healthier-looking hair while keeping color-treated hair soft, smooth, and manageable. |
|
|
 |
 |
GLOSSY, DIMENSIONAL
BRUNETTE |
|
| For those who don’t want a major color transformation, a gloss can be enough to make hair feel completely refreshed. |
| Adding shine and subtle tonal dimension can bring new life to existing brunette or highlighted hair without committing to a significant color change. |
| For maintaining your fall color at home, Goldwell Dualsenses Color Brilliance Shampoo and Conditioner are designed specifically for color-treated hair, helping preserve vibrancy while keeping hair smooth and conditioned. |

| IFERGAN EXPERT TIP |
| The best fall color is the one that works with your natural hair, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences. Before making a change, talk with your Charles Ifergan colorist about how often you want to return to the salon and how much maintenance you’re comfortable with. |

|
| HAIR DID YOU KNOW? |
| Hair color can appear richer and more vibrant when the hair’s surface is smooth because a smoother cuticle reflects more light. That’s one reason shine and healthy hair care play such an important role in making color look its best. |
