Fall & winter 2019 hair trends

Hair is riding the throwback train for fall and winter 2019. The ‘80’s and ‘90’s have influenced just about everything from your color to where to place hair accessories.

It might be intimidating to walk out the door with a giant clip in your hair, but trust us, the models on the Fall 2019 runways will convince you to go for it. And if you’ve been holding off that major hair color change, we have all the hairstyle inspo you need to take the plunge.

The best fall hair trends for 2019 include (but are certainly not limited to) barrettes, scrunchies, hats, headbands, beach waves, and pastel colors. There’s something to fit any hair type and personal preference. Whether you want a permanent hairstyle change or simply want to refresh your current look, celebrities and models have already done it for us. Take a peek at the following pictures and prepare for your next big hair move.

1. Accessory overload

It was Gabrielle Chanel who once advised something along the lines of "take one accessory off before you leave the house." Don't just ignore that advice for hair accessories this season—do the opposite. Add more sparkly clips, pins, and baubles to your hair before you leave the house. The more, the better!

2. Hat Hair

Just because you're wearing a hat doesn't mean you need to forget about your hair. At Zimmermann, hair was styled in loose waves under a beret.

3. Beach Waves

Yes, it might be fall, but that doesn’t mean that you have to give up your beachy waves. In fact, it’s the perfect style for the season because it gives you that “I woke up like this” look that you see on Insta all year round. Spritz in a salt spray and scrunch your hair for a textured, piecey look.

4. Pastel Touches

Fashion hair colors are more muted this season, with the pastel tones that have been so popular in recent seasons used more subtly in the fall/ winter 2019 hair color trends. Take for instance the color story at Saint Laurent, where touches of pastel tones were used in groups based on the elements, with streaks of pale blue and peach meant to remind us of clouds and a sunrise horizon.

Fall hair Inspiration and ideas

Fall is the perfect time to treat yourself to a salon treatment, a new hair cut, and/or a fresh new color. The turn of a new season invites change - whether big or small, your will feel and see a big impact!

Here are three ways to change things up for Fall:

Get a treatment done:

At ash Salon, we offer CONCENTRATE Treatment Services which are single doses of nourishment, strength and shine that are designed to improve hair's overall condition with tangible results in five minutes or less.

The treatments by r+co include:

● DALLAS Thickening Concentrate

○ Ideal for those looking for long-lasting, Texas-style hair. It's designed to increase the fullness of fine hair by 2x after one application, w

○ hile repairing damage and split ends with visual results lasting up to 23 washes.

● ATLANTIS Moisturizing Concentrate

○ ATLANTIS can increase moisture levels by 2.5 times after one application and prolong healing and elasticity, while repairing damage and reducing frizz for up to four weeks.

Try a new color:

BLONDE: If it feels like everywhere you look a new celebrity has gone platinum, you're not alone. The color is a present-day Hollywood epidemic (in a good way!), and with a history stretching from Jean Harlow (the OG "bombshell blonde") to Farrah Fawcett, the color stands the test of time for giving anyone a carefree & cool vibe. However, blonde is definitely not effortless— it requires visits to the salon and at-home maintenance, but it’s worth it. We promise.

BALAYAGE: If you're stuck between blonde and brunette, get the best of both worlds with a soft fade from dark roots to blonde hair. To brighten your look on dark winter days, frame your face with blonde pieces.

Get a fresh cut

We’re loving bobs right now! 2019 is the time to be brave and embrace the bob (or lob).

If the thought of lobbing off the majority of your locks fills you with dread, know that there are a ton of different ways you can rock the style, and it doesn't have to be super short.

How to freshen your hair for fall at home

There’s something about the start of a new season that calls for a refresh - and today we’re chatting about refreshing your hair at home. As the cooler weather of fall waltzes in, try doing an at-home detox hair treatment that reinvigorates, new ways to style your hair, and try out the hottest fall trend: hair accessories!

ACV Treatment

If you use products on your hair, you probably know the gross feeling that build-up can cause. After two weeks of dry shampoos, mousses, and salt sprays, regular shampoo sometimes just doesn't cut it. Eventually, you'll end up with gunky, greasy hair and be tempted to wash your hair every day, or maybe even twice in one day. In turn, this will leave your hair lifeless, limp, and dull. This is why clarifying shampoos are such a staple in the households of people who do their hair all the time.

The good news: you don’t have to buy a fancy clarifying shampoo. You can actually treat build-up on the hair with something that is likely sitting in your kitchen: Apple Cider Vinegar.

Why Apple cider vinegar?

An apple cider vinegar-based rinse can help restore life to your hair in a matter of moments, but first thing's first, you have to be smart about it. You can't just pour ACV onto your head—that's going to end up not only stripping your hair, but actually could burn your scalp. So seriously, don't do it. Instead, you have to dilute it heavily. But if you do dilute it, you can get some serious benefits:

Clearing Out Stubborn Product

Apple cider vinegar is great at getting build-up off of your hair. A big part of this is due to its acidic nature; it's less acidic than your typical clarifying shampoo, but more acidic than regular shampoo. Grease, grime, and any product that's clumped up in your hair over time will be washed out, while your hair is kept intact.

Restoring Balance

Not only can apple cider vinegar rinse unwanted dirt off your strands, but it can have seriously positive effects on your scalp health. Not only does your scalp have an acid mantle like the rest of your skin, but the acid mantle needs to be maintained, which means keeping a healthy pH balance. Unfortunately, hair products aren't often made with your pH balance in mind, which means the buildup that comes from products seriously messes with that acid mantle. Using apple cider vinegar as a hair rinse can, thankfully, restore that balance.

How To Do It At Home

1. Mix five parts water to one part vinegar in a spray bottle.

2. Spray your scalp well, enough that it'll be evenly coated.

3. Work the vinegar into your hair with your fingers. It will be diluted enough that it shouldn't burn.

4. Allow the vinegar mixture to sit for three to five minutes.

5. Rinse your hair and scalp with cool water.

6. Follow this rinse with a light conditioner, nothing that will weigh down your hair.

7. Rinse your hair well, until you're sure all product (and vinegar) is down the drain.

You can dry and style your hair as usual afterwards, but you should notice some shine and body have been restored.

Try Changing Your Part

Switching your part is an easy (free!) solution to the urge to completely change your hair all the time. A center part can dramatically change your current bob, lob, or long layers, and make it feel like you got an entirely new haircut.

In reality, the only difficult thing about a center part is making it. The look works on all face shapes and can draw attention to your favorite features. To get your part in the right place, use your nose as a guide. With a rat tail comb (one that has a pointy end), go back to the crown from the hairline and you'll end up with a strong center part.

As for how to wear your center part, the choices are endless because virtually any hairstyle looks great with one. Here’s our take on the center part:

Add Accessories

Influencers and celebrities are embracing hair accessories with gusto this season. From pearl barrettes to headscarves to scrunchies, when it comes to adorning your hair, anything goes. Need some inspiration? Here is our take. Try your favorite or mix it up—there are no rules.
