2012 Fall Hairstyles

So in honor of today (which happens to be the first day of fall), I decided to talk about fall hairstyles.

Fall Colors

The first thing I want to talk about is fall colors.  It’s typical for people to color their hair darker in the fall and winter seasons and this is why:  If you never colored your hair, it would naturally be lighter in the summer and darker in the winter.  The sun essentially does the same thing as bleach; it disperses the color molecules in your hair. This is why people get natural highlights when they are outside a lot in the summer. In the winter, when it is cold, people don’t typically go outside much. Therefore, their hair is not really affected by the sun, and tends to be darker colors.

When you think of fall colors, you think of reds, yellows, golds, oranges, etc. If you do color your hair, I would chose these types of colors in the fall season.

The next thing I want to talk about are fall hairstyles that are going to be popular this year…

Side Braids.

Side braids are ultra-popular right now. If you don’t believe me, go look it up on Pinterest. Pinterest will also show you some cool tutorials and different ways to wear side braids.

Short Bobs.

I can’t say I am a huge fan of really short bobs, only because they can be too harsh on most people. Nevertheless, they are extremely popular right now.

Short Wavy Hair.

Plaited Bun.

You will also see this fall hairstyle and the next two plastered all over Pinterest.

Bow Bun.

Knotted Chignon.

Hair-Wrapped Ponytail.

Peekaboo Braids.

Twists.

Bouffants.

Now you are ready to conquer this year’s fall season. What do you think of these trendy fall hairstyles? Are you going to try any of them? I’d love to read your feedback in the comments section below.
