Fall 2025 Hair Color Trends | White Oak Hair Co.

There’s something magical about fall, the crisp air, cozy sweaters, and warm golden light make it the perfect season to refresh your look. At White Oak Hair Co., our stylists love helping guests embrace the beauty of the season with a new hair color that enhances their features, complements their skin tone, and makes them feel confident as the year winds down.

This fall, we’re seeing fresh takes on timeless favorites along with some bold new shades. Whether you’re looking to subtly warm up your look or completely transform your style, fall is the ideal time to try something new.

The Fall Hair Colors We’re Loving

Warm Brunettes

This fall, brunettes are going deeper, richer, and more multidimensional. Think espresso brown, a nearly black shade with just enough warmth to avoid harshness, perfect for a bold, glossy finish.

For a softer look, chestnut brown adds a subtle red undertone that reflects beautifully in autumn light. And for brunettes craving brightness, caramel balayage or honey ribbons woven through a chocolate base deliver that cozy, golden glow that feels like fall in your hair. These shades flatter nearly every skin tone and pair perfectly with seasonal fashion staples like camel coats and chunky knits.

Dimensional Blondes

Gone are the bright, icy blondes of summer. Fall blondes are about depth and warmth. Buttery blonde offers a creamy, golden finish that softens the complexion, while wheat blonde blends sandy beige with pale highlights for a natural, sun-faded effect.

For those who want drama, golden honey blonde brings high shine and warmth, perfect for catching the autumn sun. Adding lowlight tones like soft mocha or mushroom blonde creates contrast that feels sophisticated and season-appropriate while making your color last longer between appointments.

Vibrant Reds

Red is the showstopper shade of the season, and there’s a perfect tone for everyone. Copper red is fiery, bright, and attention-grabbing, ideal for fair or warm skin tones. Auburn combines brown and red for a deeper, more natural finish, giving incredible dimension that glows in golden hour lighting.

For something bold and modern, cherry cola blends dark brunette with a jewel-toned red overlay—rich, sultry, and unexpected. No matter the shade, reds pair beautifully with fall’s earthy neutrals, making them the ultimate seasonal statement.

Lived-In Color

Low-maintenance, effortlessly chic color is here to stay. Smoky balayage blends cool-toned ash with deeper roots for an undone, modern vibe. Bronde, the seamless mix of brunette and blonde, creates a sun-kissed effect that works on a wide range of skin tones and requires less upkeep than solid color. And shadow roots give blondes and brunettes alike a soft, natural grow-out that looks intentional rather than harsh. These looks are perfect for anyone who wants on-trend color without committing to monthly salon visits.

Choosing the Right Shade for Your Skin Tone

A stunning hair color starts with a perfect match to your skin tone. Here’s how our stylists approach it:

• Cool Skin Tones: If your skin has pink, red, or bluish undertones, cooler shades like ash brown, platinum, or jewel-toned reds will enhance your complexion.

• Warm Skin Tones: If your skin has golden, peachy, or olive undertones, warm caramel, honey blonde, golden brown, or copper reds will bring out your natural glow.

• Neutral Skin Tones: Lucky you, you can wear a wide range of shades! Neutral tones pair beautifully with bronde blends, rich chocolate browns, and warm blondes.

Our stylists are experts in analyzing undertones and helping you choose a color that flatters you year-round.

Why Fall Is the Best Time for a Color Refresh

You may wonder, why is fall the perfect season for a new hair color? Here are a few reasons:

• Seasonal Transition: Just like your wardrobe, your hair color can shift with the seasons. Warmer, deeper hues naturally suit fall’s earthy palette.

• Healthier Hair Ahead: Summer sun and chlorine can leave hair faded or brassy. Fall is the perfect time to restore shine, depth, and richness to your strands.

• Holiday Ready: A fresh color now ensures your hair is looking its best for holiday gatherings, photos, and special events.

• Less UV Damage: With fewer hours of strong sunlight, your new color will stay vibrant longer.
