Creating Your Fall Hair Plan!

Create a Fall Hair Plan: 
Three key characteristics to keep in mind when creating your fall/ winter hair plan are color, shape and texture.  The most important part of creating your look is that it fits your personality and looks natural.  Here are a few trends we will see happening in hair for fall/Winter 2011-2012.

Color: Three hair color trends we will see this fall. With all the Ombre color that has been going around the past season it is time to bring some balance back into our hair color, and remember to condition your hair. Add depth back into the hair without loosing variation of tones by using the multi-lightened tones of the summer to keep it looking natural.

Cool browns like walnut and chocolate with high shine and luminescence.



 

Natural Muted Reds 









Blended golden and warm blondes like honey and strawberry blondes.




  

Shape: We will see the lengths moving from the breast to the collarbone this fall as the necklines in clothing move upward.  Bangs made a strong comeback in 2011. The same goes for Fall/Winter 2011-2012 season. Adding fringe adds personality and as the skin lightens in the upcoming season the focus becomes centered on the cheeks, eyes and lips.  With fabrics becoming more muted, the eyes, lips and cheeks are a great area to focus on where we can play with the intensity of color.


 


Texture: In the fall we tend to see more of a variety of textures within the fabrics that are used for clothing. This is a great time to explore different texture in your own hair as well. Just don’t over do it with forced textures like crimping irons ect. I am talking about natural textures.  What would happen if you just let your hair dry naturally? Natural texture can create personality. Embrace the natural textures and characteristics of your hair. Try this as an alternative to sleek and smooth.

Before you visit your stylist, take a glance through some magazines and tear out things you like and don’t like. Bring your ideas to your next appointment and discuss them with your stylist to be sure you achieve the look that fits your personality.
