True Autumn

True Autumn hair color

Think of temperature and depth before picking a dye name. Hair surrounds the face, so a large change can alter your preferred combinations.

Rust, golden olive and warm teal give a wardrobe a generous earthy base. Warm browns work as useful anchors and keep the palette grounded.

Color directions to discuss

Copper, auburn, warm chestnut. These chips illustrate color direction, not dye formulas.

A practical rule

Use natural depth as a starting point. Bring physical swatches to a qualified colorist and follow their product and patch-test instructions.

For this softer palette, try colors of a similar depth together before adding a strong contrast.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
