Fall is one of my favorite times in the salon. There’s something about the change in season that makes people ready for a little refresh, whether it’s softening their cut, adding new dimension to their color, or playing with a different styling routine. This fall, it’s all about versatility, movement, and expression. From rich shades that feel expensive yet effortless, to cuts that can easily transform from classic to edgy, the possibilities are endless. Here’s what I’m loving for Fall 2025, along with a few Calista favorites that help you bring the looks home.
Fall 2025 Hair Colors That Are Taking Over
This season’s colors are rich, dimensional, and full of warmth. Strawberry and honey blondes are still in demand, while brunettes are leaning deeper into glossy mocha and espresso shades, often paired with highlights or lowlights for added depth. Copper, cinnamon, and auburn tones are also having a big moment, bring rich warmth to fall hair.
Of course, the secret to lasting, vibrant color is keeping hair healthy. Weekly treatments like the JOUSSE Mend Mask strengthen and hydrate so strands stay soft and salon-fresh. And after every wash, a light mist of JOUSSE Vitality Spray helps detangle, adds shine, and protects against heat and UV, so your color holds onto that depth and radiance all season long.
The Top Haircuts Defining Fall 2025
Cuts this fall are softer, more playful, and easily adaptable. I’m seeing bobs with airy texture, shaggy layers with lots of movement, and the “bixie” (that fun pixie-bob hybrid) holding strong. For longer hair, the butterfly cut, with face-framing layers, is everywhere, along with bangs of all kinds: breezy curtain bangs, wispy fringes, and bold, blunt statements.
What excites me most is how versatile these cuts are. With just a few styling tweaks, you can go from sleek and dramatic to undone and effortless. To keep those fresh layers looking their best, I recommend JOUSSE Cleanse & Condition, infused with keratin that strengthens strands and botanicals that nourish, leaving hair soft, healthy, and ready for styling.
Styling Inspiration for the Season
When it comes to styling, adaptability and self-expression are leading the way. On the sleek side, red carpets are full of slicked-back looks and glossy flipped ends. For a softer take, a healthy, high-shine finish is always in style; this is where GLOSS Shine Recovery Serum comes in. It nourishes while adding smoothness, shine, and frizz control for that polished, radiant look.
On the other end, volume is bigger than ever. Fluffy, bouncy curls (a favorite among celebs and influencers) are simple with the Ion Hot Rollers, while tousled, lived-in texture continues to trend on runways and can be beautifully supported with soft touch hold from Embellish FLEX Spray.
However you wear it, styling this season is about versatility, and Calista's Perfecter Pro offers endless styling options. You can use it to add lift at the roots, smooth your hair straight, or add soft curls, and in just a few minutes, your whole look is transformed. With the right cut, tools, and products, you can shift your look effortlessly between polished and playful styles.
How to Bring Fall Hair Trends Into Your Everyday Routine
What I love most about this season’s trends is how approachable they are. My clients light up when they realize they don’t have to stick to just one “signature” look. One day it’s sleek and shiny, the next it’s big curls, and the day after it’s undone and textured. That’s the beauty of hair: it’s personal, expressive, and fun. With Calista’s lineup of products, tools, and tutorials, you’ve got everything you need to explore new looks, nourish your hair, and feel confident trying something new this fall.
