As the leaves turn and the light softens, autumn is the perfect time for clients to refresh their hair. At Wayne Hurr Hair, we’re excited to combine the latest in L’Oréal colour innovations with luxury Kérastase care to deliver seasonal styles that shimmer, shine, and stand up to autumn weather.
Here are some standout trends and how we’ll tailor them for you — plus how to care for your new hair using Kérastase.
1. Rich, Dimensional Browns
& “Bambi Brunette”
Rather than stark dark hair, this season leans toward warm brunette tones with subtle play of light. The “Bambi brunette” trend is rising — think soft caramel and beige accents within a brunette base for a glowing, velvety finish.
We can achieve this using L’Oréal’ Colour with delicate balayage or baby-light techniques to provide dimension rather than heavy contrast.
Styling idea: gentle waves or soft curls emphasize the multi-dimensional tones.
2. Bronzed & Rustic Copper Shades
Autumn’s colour palette often evokes the richness of leaves, embers, and warm earth. Bronzed tones and muted coppers are trending as a sophisticated way to bring warmth without going too vivid.
We can use L’Oréal’s copper-infused or bronze shades (toned to client’s skin tone) and blend with lowlights or root smudging so regrowth is seamless.
3. “Rusty Cinnamon”
& Ultraviolet Reds
For clients who want a bolder shift, Rusty Cinnamon Red or deeper violet-red hues are very on-trend. These richer reds capture the autumn glow while offering depth.
Because reds fade faster, it’s a perfect pairing with Kérastase’s colour-protect lines (or gloss treatments) to lock in vibrancy.
4. Minimalist Balayage & Subtle Blondes
For clients who prefer lighter tones, how about more muted tones with blended highlights rather than bright platinum.
Think melted caramel, heritage blonde, or champagne “bloronde” with neutral undertones.
Using L’Oréal’s professional balayage techniques, we can give just enough brightness — avoiding harsh lines — then reinforce with a gloss or toner at the end.
5. Cuts & Textures to Complement Colour
Colour is only one half of the transformation — the cut and finish are just as vital. Here are a few ideas that work beautifully with autumn tones:
Textured bobs - Soft layers and texture help colour catch light, creating depth. These are trending in salons for this season
Wispy layers & curtain bangs: These add movement without overwhelming the colour.
Face-framing slices: Small, delicate highlights around the face to brighten without full bleaching.
6. Care & Maintenance with Kérastase
Colours (especially warmer or red tones) need smart upkeep. That’s where Kérastase becomes an essential partner:
AM/PM routines: Use Kérastase’s colour-care shampoos and conditioners to gently cleanse while protecting pigments.
Glossing / Toner treatments: These can be scheduled as salon add-ons to refresh tone mid-season.
Anti-fall / strength lines: Autumn often brings more hair shedding. Kérastase’s Genesis line is designed to tackle breakage and weakened roots.
Masks & oils: Offer monthly deep treatments to counteract dryness from cooler air and indoor heating.
