Fall Hair Color Ideas for Black Women That Are Fun & Stylish
Denim Blue
Although not the most common, denim-blue hair is a force to be reckoned with. What’s so unique about this color is that you could even extend it to winter, throwing in a few ice-blue streaks in honor of Snowflake Central (aka Christmastime)! Not comfortable with going all the way in? Leave the roots an off-black or dye the tips. Either way, you won’t be disappointed. Add a beat face and you’ll see how much the blues can bring out any complexion.
Brown w/ Blonde Highlights
Blonde hair on Black women = top tier. Elite. Absolutely unmatched! If you’re too fearful to go straight-up blonde, starting with a few highlights is a smart and safe choice. The strands implemented into a solid brown are the right amount of pizazz needed to make your hair stand out against the gloomy overlays of fall. Pop some curls in and let your beautiful bush run wild with its mixture of colors. Try out different shades, too! The more variations of color, the more eye-catching they will be. Get creative!
Burnt Orange
Burnt orange is a leading hair color for the fall. It can just about go with anything in your wardrobe. The vibrant hues make trying different styles even better. Don’t be afraid to test out the versatility! From flipped ponies to side parts and bumped ends, you won’t regret it. Play around with clips and barrettes for a little razzle-dazzle. Whether you’re made up or down, this color truly speaks for itself.
Burgundy Red
Because what would fall be without a hint of burgundy/red somewhere in the mix? Burgundy red hair is normally the go-to for any style change during this time of the year. It’s chic, timeless, and all-around stunning! From Sunday Fundays to Working Wednesdays, this color is fit for any occasion. Any time, any place.
Classic Black
If all else fails, a 1B has never hurt anybody! Classic black hair is elegant and sassy. In our opinion, this color doesn’t get enough credit for how it always comes through–with any do. While spring and summer are ideally for color-hopping, fall and winter are best suited for those who want a calmer appearance. Thinking about going back to black? Do it, sis!
