When summer days are winding down and the crisp September air rolls in, it’s the ideal time for a fresh makeover to match the changing season. Fall isn’t just about swapping out your wardrobe; it’s also about revamping your hair, skin, and nails. These seasonal transitions can have a big impact on how we look and feel, so why not embrace this time of change with some self-care that leaves you glowing?
Fall Hair Trends: Rich Tones & Fresh Cuts
Let’s start with the crown jewel—your hair. After a summer full of sun, sea, and sand, your locks might be feeling a little parched. Now’s the time to rejuvenate with deeper, richer tones that will match the warmth of autumn. Think chestnut browns, caramel highlights, and even a bold auburn if you’re feeling adventurous.
So what’s on the menu this Fall besides pumpkin spiced lattes?
As the months get colder, shorter lengths with 90’s inspo will flourish. It’s actually smart to take off length now and then you can grow out your hair again in time for next summer (providing options to tie your hair back when it’s hot).
So what will we be seeing? Definitely more face-framing fringe that trims off that summer damage. Flowy lengths, shaped with gentle layers. Longer hair is going much softer with dimension and movement. It’s a simple way to make long hair modern.
According to Vogue: “Bob haircuts, whether you like them short or looking for the happy medium with a lob, will remain the go-to for all face shapes and hair textures. Adding layers or fun hair accessories is an easy way to elevate any look. Bangs are even having a moment and will continue to trend as the weather cools.”
Rich chocolate brown will always be considered luxurious, dark hairs reflect light and this results in some serious shine. So it’s no wonder that the dark classic is predicted to trend this fall.
Muted blondes are the next big thing. “Muted blonde hair color is a sophisticated and subtle shade that blends warm and cool tones to create a natural, understated look,” according to Glamour.
With elements of light golden honey, go honeycomb red for the autumnal win. This trend can offers warm, golden pops of color that are perfect for the fall season, it is a great transition color for anyone looking to keep a bit of summer warmth into their hair while transitioning the colder months.

At-home tip: Keep your hair healthy between appointments with a nourishing hair mask once a week. Look for something with ingredients like argan oil or keratin to help restore moisture and add shine.
Hair oils can help your hair feel stronger, softer and shinier. They also protect your lengths against external damaging factors like heat styling tools. We recommend Elixir Ultime by Kerastasse (available for purchase in our salon.)
The Elixir Ultime formula provides 48 hours of shine, which sets you up for success. Then, in between washes, re-apply a pump of Elixir Ultime to lengths and ends (rub it into your hands first) to give hair a boost of shine that will take you all the way to your next wash.
Here are some more Elixir Ultime benefits:
Strengthens roots: Oiling the scalp and hair can remove toxins and restore vitamins and minerals.
Combats dandruff: Oiling can help prevent dryness and keep dandruff away.
Reduces hair fall: Oiling can reduce dryness, which can help keep hair fall at bay.
Protects from harsh weather conditions: Oiling can help protect hair from harsh weather conditions.
Visiting your salon for a Fall refresh ensures that you’re getting the right tone and cut for your face shape and hair type. Not sure what direction to go in? We’ve got you covered! Whether you want a full color overhaul or just a subtle update, our stylists will help you find the perfect match.
Skin Care: Transition to Hydration & Protection
The cooler weather means your skin is in need of a little extra love. Fall is the season to start thinking about hydration and protection as the air dries out and becomes less forgiving.
At the salon, you can treat yourself to one of our fabulous Forbici facials that focus on deep hydration and exfoliation, helping your skin bounce back from summer damage and preparing it for the colder months ahead.

Our salon’s rejuvenating facials are designed to target dryness, dullness, and sun damage, giving your skin the reset it needs. Afterward, you’ll leave glowing and refreshed, ready to face fall with confidence.
At-home tip: Invest in a richer moisturizer and incorporate a hydrating serum into your routine. Don’t forget SPF—just because summer is over doesn’t mean the sun’s harmful rays are gone. Looking for some great products to use at home? We recommend Sorella Apothecary Papaya + Pumpkin Mask (gently exfoliates while healing and nourishing the skin with antioxidants) and Rehab Recovery Sleep Mask (for deep hydration) both products are available for purchase in the salon.
Nails: Autumn Colors & Nourishment
Who doesn’t love a fresh manicure? Fall nails are all about earthy tones, moody hues, and a touch of subtle glam. Deep burgundies, emerald greens, and warm neutrals are taking center stage this season. Pair those gorgeous shades with a little extra nail TLC, especially after summer’s wear and tear.
September is the perfect time to get into the autumn spirit without going dark quite yet. We are loving the fall line up by Dazzle Dry!
