From bold cuts to warm color tones, here are the must-try styles that will have you turning heads this fall.
1. The Shag Cut
The shag is making a strong comeback this season! This layered, textured cut adds effortless volume and movement, perfect for a laid-back yet stylish look. It works on all hair lengths and types, making it the ideal choice for students looking for a low-maintenance cut that still feels trendy. Pair it with curtain bangs for a modern twist, and you'll be class-ready in no time.
2. Blunt Bob
For those seeking something a bit sharper, the blunt bob is a sleek and polished option. This timeless cut frames the face beautifully, and its simplicity makes it incredibly versatile. Style it straight for a chic, sophisticated vibe or add soft waves for a more relaxed, back-to-school feel. The best part? It’s an easy-to-style cut, perfect for busy mornings when you're rushing out the door.
3. Rich Auburn Hues
Fall is all about embracing warm, rich tones, and nothing says autumn quite like a deep auburn hue. This color not only complements the season’s palette but also adds warmth and dimension to your hair. Whether you opt for an all-over auburn shade or subtle highlights, this color is sure to stand out as you step into the new school year.
4. Warm Honey Blonde
If you're a blonde looking to transition your summer locks into fall, consider adding warmer tones like honey or caramel. These shades blend seamlessly with blonde hair, creating a soft, natural glow that complements the season. A honey blonde balayage or highlights will keep your look bright and fresh while embracing fall’s cozier vibe.
5. Soft Layers
Layers are perfect for adding volume and movement without committing to a drastic change. Soft layers work well on long or medium-length hair, giving your look a subtle update. This trend is perfect for students who want a fresh new style that’s easy to manage and works well with a variety of hairstyles, from ponytails to loose waves.
6. Natural Curls and Waves
Fall 2024 is all about embracing your natural texture. If you’ve got curls or waves, let them shine! Ask your stylist for a cut that enhances your natural movement, and consider using curl-enhancing products to define and hydrate your hair. For those with straight hair, a perm is making a comeback for fall, allowing you to add natural-looking curls or waves that give off major effortless vibes.
7. Low-Maintenance Balayage
For those who love color but don’t want the hassle of constant touch-ups, balayage remains a top trend. This technique involves hand-painting highlights onto your hair, creating a natural, sun-kissed look that grows out beautifully. Opt for warm, autumnal tones like caramel, chestnut, or even a soft, smoky brunette to transition into fall seamlessly.
8. Face-Framing Highlights
For a more subtle update, face-framing highlights are a simple yet impactful trend. These highlights brighten up your look by adding lighter streaks around your face, drawing attention to your features. This trend is perfect for students looking to freshen up their hairstyle without a full commitment to color.
9. Braided Styles
Braids are not only practical for keeping your hair in check but also super stylish for fall. Whether you prefer simple, sleek braids, fishtails, or intricate braided updos, this versatile style works for any hair length. Plus, it’s perfect for second-day hair when you need a cute, quick fix for early morning classes.
