Power Brown
Bodt points to models like Binx Walton and Kaia Gerber as an example of the luxurious take on brunette for the season. It seems brown is anything but boring: we're talking a rich medium to dark brown, a powerful color that looks lush and saturated. "It's not overly warm, not overly ashy. For the longest time we saw brunettes with highlights running through it, but now we're seeing that chic, rich tone. Think sable-y, very Old Hollywood raven-haired brunette."

If you're already naturally in the brown family, Bodt says this is the season to really lean into a lush version of your natural hair color. "I think this is the season to really embracing being brunette. I think we're going back to that luxe, rich brown."

Power Brown: Get the Look

If you’re already in the brunette family, a color glaze can deepen your brunette color. Bodt recommends finding a colorist to apply Redken Shades EQ or Wella Color Touch for a color treatment that adds rich depth and shine. She also recommends using color-enhancing shampoos and conditioners like John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Colour Protecting Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner, $6.99, to refresh your hue as well as continue adding depth to your color.

Power Brown: Keep the Look

Bodt says to watch your cleansing regimen if you’re trying to cover up highlights. “If you have overly highlighted hair, the more you wash it, the more it’s going to come out.” In this case, Bodt recommends using a cleansing conditioner or sulfate-free shampoo like Bumble and Bumble Color Minded Shampoo, $31, in addition to a monthly color glaze treatment for rich brunette impact.

Super Ashy Blonde
Blondes have been having fun for seasons and this fall, the hue borrows some inspiration from the '80s with a cool, frosty take (think recent Cara Delevingne). "The color is a very grey-white marbleized blonde that's super ashy with a neutral root. It's a very frosty update on that ashy '80s blonde with more tone to it. It's very neutral: it doesn't mess with skin tone, it's not sparkly. It's a real statement."

Ashy Blonde: Get the Look

Once a professional has created this multi-dimensional color, the key is preserving the purity of the color, which means using products to keep the blonde from turning. Bodt likes R+Co Acid Wash ACV Cleansing Rinse, $32, to keep blondes pristine. “Super blonde hair is very porous, so you have to continually remove mineral deposits that come through your water pipes, which can turn it yellow and/or orange. This product is essentially an apple cider vinegar rinse that will take those deposits off the hair without stripping it.”
